  • Understanding When to Kneel, Sit and Stand at a Traditional Latin Mass

    Understanding When to Kneel, Sit and Stand at a Traditional Latin Mass

    UNDERSTANDING WHEN TO KNEEL, SIT AND STAND AT A TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS __________________________ A Short Essay on Mass Postures __________________________ by Richard Friend I. Introduction A Catholic assisting at a Traditional Latin Mass for the first time will most likely experience bewilderment and confusion as to when to kneel, sit and stand, for the postures that people observe at Traditional Latin Masses are so different from what he is accustomed to. To understand what people should really be doing at Mass is not always determinable from what people remember or from what people are presently doing. What is needed is an understanding of the nature of the liturgy itself, and then to act accordingly. When I began assisting at Traditional Latin Masses for the first time as an adult, I remember being utterly confused with Mass postures. People followed one order of postures for Low Mass, and a different one for Sung Mass. I recall my oldest son, then a small boy, being thoroughly amused with the frequent changes in people’s postures during Sung Mass, when we would go in rather short order from standing for the entrance procession, kneeling for the preparatory prayers, standing for the Gloria, sitting when the priest sat, rising again when he rose, sitting for the epistle, gradual, alleluia, standing for the Gospel, sitting for the epistle in English, rising for the Gospel in English, sitting for the sermon, rising for the Credo, genuflecting together with the priest, sitting when the priest sat while the choir sang the Credo, kneeling when the choir reached Et incarnatus est etc.

    A Letter from Father Humphrey

    The Evangelist April 14, 2019 We are ready for you at St. John's! Sunday: Low Mass at 8 a.m. & High Mass at 10 a.m. Monday through Friday: Morning Prayer at 8:30 a.m. & Evening Prayer at 5:30 p.m. Feast Days & Special Services as announced. Confessions by appointment. A Letter from Father Humphrey Dear People, Neighbors and Friends of St. John's, This coming week is about one thing and one thing only: the undoing of death. We will begin with a requiem on Saturday for a beloved parishioner, which is appropriate, because in the Orthodox Church the day before Palm Sunday is known as "Lazarus Saturday," in reference to the great miracle that Jesus performed, a miracle that so astounded the authorities that they instinctively reacted by plotting Jesus' own death. Why would the powers and principalities wish to kill someone who had the power over death? Perhaps it is because death is one of the few things that keeps the status quo the status quo. In other words, earthly power relies on death to keep people in line. If you're not afraid to die, you are a dangerous person. And Jesus wasn't just someone who faced death with bravado. He faced it with real power. We are invited to encounter that power anew by walking the way of the cross this Holy Week, that we "may find it to be none other than the way of life and peace," as the Morning Prayer collect for Fridays puts it. We are promised that if we walk with Jesus, we will share in his power over death itself, as death's power is undone once for all by Jesus himself.

McMANUS Priest of the Archdiocese of Boston 1956 SAINT ANTHONY GUILD PRESS PATERSON, NEW JERSEY Copyright, 1956, by Frederick R. McManus Nihil obstat ALFRED R. JULIEN, J.C. D. Censor Lib1·or111n Imprimatur t RICHARD J. CUSHING A1·chbishop of Boston Boston, February 16, 1956 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INTRODUCTION ANCTITY is the purpose of the "new Holy Week." The news S accounts have been concerned with the radical changes, the upset of traditional practices, and the technical details of the re­ stored Holy Week services, but the real issue in the reform is the development of true holiness in the members of Christ's Church. This is the expectation of Pope Pius XII, as expressed personally by him. It is insisted upon repeatedly in the official language of the new laws - the goal is simple: that the faithful may take part in the most sacred week of the year "more easily, more devoutly, and more fruitfully." Certainly the changes now commanded ,by the Apostolic See are extraordinary, particularly since they come after nearly four centuries of little liturgical development. This is especially true of the different times set for the principal services. On Holy Thursday the solemn evening Mass now becomes a clearer and more evident memorial of the Last Supper of the Lord on the night before He suffered. On Good Friday, when Holy Mass is not offered, the liturgical service is placed at three o'clock in the afternoon, or later, since three o'clock is the "ninth hour" of the Gospel accounts of our Lord's Crucifixion.

    ST MARY's CATHEDRAL Solemn Mass

    ST MARY’S CATHEDRAL Solemn Mass Eighteenth Sunday of the Year 2 August 2020 10.30am WELCOME to St Mary’s Cathedral which stands in the centre of Sydney as a Christian statement of grace and beauty. Generations of artists have bequeathed to it their magnificent gifts in stone and glass, designing a unique space of solace and prayer within this vibrant city. This Cathedral represents the spiritual origins of the Catholic Church in Australia. It is one of Sydney’s most treasured historic buildings and one of the finest examples of English-style gothic churches in the world. William Wilkinson Wardell, the 19th century architect, dreamed of a gothic structure shaped from the local yellow-block sandstone on which this city is built. The building was finally completed 100 years after the architect’s death. The Cathedral is dedicated to Mary, Immaculate Mother of God, Help of Christians. THE CATHEDRAL CHOIR St Mary’s Cathedral Choir is the oldest musical institution in Australia. In 1818 a group of choristers was formed to sing Vespers before the Blessed Sacrament in the Dempsey household, the centre of Catholic worship in the penal colony. After the establishment of St Mary’s Cathedral in 1833 the successors of these choristers formed the permanent Cathedral Choir. In faithfulness to the Benedictine English tradition from which the Cathedral’s founders came, the Choir is formed of men and boys, preserving the historical character of Catholic liturgical and musical heritage. St Mary’s is the only Catholic Cathedral in Australia to have an on-site Choir School where the twenty-four boy choristers are educated.

Where did they originate, and among many order, what was it about this particular one that impelled Bl. Solanus Casey to become a Capuchin-Franciscan Friar?
