  • A RESPONSE to GARY MACY I Have the Privilege of Thanking Professor Macy for All of Us, for This Most Interesting and Provocative Piece of Historical Research
    • CTSA PROCEEDINGS 52 (1997): 59-62 • A RESPONSE TO GARY MACY I have the privilege of thanking Professor Macy for all of us, for this most interesting and provocative piece of historical research. We are all indebted to the historian who can put the bread of detail on the empty plate of our general- ized assumptions about the past. Far from being an arcane matter of interest only to specialists, this paper is a fine example of the importance of explorations in the history of doctrine, often into long neglected and forgotten texts. Henri De Lubac, whose work The Mystery of the Supernatural (translated 1967, dedicated to Gerard Smith, S.J., my philosophy teacher at Marquette), was the most earth moving in my own theological education, has written that "theology without his- torical research is only one more symptom of a church out of touch with the world."1 I will comment on three points which Ifind to be major contributions of this paper, and raise a few questions for Sunday morning's discussion. 1. DISCONTINUITY BETWEEN ORDINATION AND EUCHARIST I think it was Edward Schillebeeckx who, in his 1981 book on leadership in the Church {Ministry), established that for the first 1,000 years or so, the presider at the Eucharist was identified as such by way of the authority he (even some- times she, in the earliest communities) carried of real leadership in the commun- ity. The authority of official appointment and jurisdiction was secondary and fol- lowed. Prof. Macy gives us specifics that show dramatically the relatively late connection of ordination with the role of presiding at the Eucharist.

    SOCIALLY ISOLATED SPIRITUALLY CONNECTED 12 July 2020 Sea Sunday St. Mary’s worship today includes a said service of Holy Communion at 10am in Church. It also includes a Liturgy of Empty Hands on-line, with specially recorded music to enrich your experience of worship. The readings, prayers and sermon for the day are all included below, as is the full order of service for the Liturgy of Empty Hands. Both the Liturgy and the sermon can be watched on YouTube. Collect Saving God, entering the flood and storm of chaos and confusion: speak peace to our fearful hearts that we might find our faith in him whose word brings rest to all creation; through Jesus Christ, lord of wind and wave. Psalm 107.23-32 Some went down to the sea in ships, doing business on the mighty waters; they saw the deeds of the Lord, his wondrous works in the deep. For he commanded and raised the stormy wind, which lifted up the waves of the sea. They mounted up to heaven, they went down to the depths; their courage melted away in their calamity. They reeled and staggered like drunkards, and were at their wits’ end. Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he brought them out from their distress; he made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed. Then they were glad because they had quiet, and he brought them to their desired haven. Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wonderful works to humankind.

  • THE KIRK of PERTH (St. John the Baptist's) ANNIVERSARY YEAR
    THE KIRK OF PERTH (St. John the Baptist's) ANNIVERSARY YEAR The second issue of the Church Service Society's Annual contained an article by the Reverend Walter E. Lee, D.D., Minister of St. John's Kirk of Perth, in which he traced the long and interesting history of the Kirk from before its official `foundation' by King David I in 1126 through its mediaeval period, celebrated in Scott's Fair Maid of Perth; its part in the violent beginning of the Reforma- tion after Knox's famous and fateful sermon in 1559; its architectural and liturgical vicissitudes in succeeding centuries culminating in the superb restoration under Sir Robert Lorimer in 1926 to ensure its preservation as one of the outstanding places of worship in Scotland. The year 1976 marks the end of the first half century since that restoration was completed, and the eight hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the Kirk's foundation. This article is written to give some account of the further improvements and matters of liturgical interest which have developed in these fifty years. For most of that period the church was fortunate to have as its minister Dr. William A. Smellie, whose character was a sanctified blend of evangelical enthusiasm, historical perspicacity, aesthetic awareness and liturgical propriety, for which St. John's provided the perfect setting. To these estimable spiritual qualities ought to be added an undoubted or- ganizational skill and a quite remarkable ability to find the resources, both financial and technical, that were required to fulfil his abiding dream of not only preserving the ancient shrine but adding con- stantly to its wealth of spiritual treasure and keeping it in tune with the best movements of the day.

  • Holy Week in the Home
    This resource has been compiled by a mom/family who attends the Traditional Latin Mass. It was created with great care but it is not meant to replace Holy Liturgies. The blessings made in the home following these liturgies are only to provide a learning resource for the family as we observe the most fruitful time of the year as never before - under orders to stay home during this epidemic. They are not valid blessings -- Missa Sicca (Dry Mass). We will be following the Pre-1955 liturgies for Holy Week. Below is an overview of our Holy Week Plans. It ​ ​ does not include any activity/craft that we will be doing with our children. It’s solely focused on immersing ourselves deeper into the liturgies and ceremonies of this holy week. We did not create any printable as holy religious have already done so. The booklets are linked with each week. Some commentary (based on Regina Coeli House) is provided on this sheet. It is to be used in union with the commentary (of Blessed Adolph Schuster) provided in the linked booklets. The linked booklets ​ ​ for the traditional liturgies are in Latin & English. We will adapt our home observance based on both commentaries and the liturgies. The head of the home (Dad) and boys will be serving as priests/deacons/altar servers. Mom and daughters will not be serving in any of these roles (aside from singing when needed) even though it is a Dry Mass and informal ceremonies. You will also find a brief list of items that you could collect around your home to assist in your observance of this Holy Week in the Home.

  • MISSA SICCA the ‘Dry Mass’ Devotion
    MISSA SICCA The ‘Dry Mass’ Devotion The Sunday liturgy (i.e. the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass) is that wholly unique and solitary experience that grounds the day as something holy (i.e. separate), which in turn shapes the rest of the days that follow (CCC n. 2168-2195). It is in essence and effect the font of our home life and culture. When deprived of the Mass or unable to go for serious reason (CCC n. 2180-2185), families will need to discern how to best remain moored to the life-giving graces that flow from the Sunday liturgy. There is the option of live streaming the Sunday Mass. Various regional and national Masses are readily available. Prior to the advent of such technologies, however, the faithful had to be more resourceful and ‘poetic’. When Mass was not available (or too dangerous) Catholics-of-old would devote themselves to the praying of the ‘Dry Mass’ or Missa Sicca. The Dry Mass is essentially the liturgy without the offertory, consecration, and subsequent communion. All evidence points to the origin of this devotion from the time of the crusades when priests would celebrate the Missa nauticum: a “nautical” Mass for the seafaring knights on their travels to Jerusalem. Not willing to risk the chance of spillage, priests would forgo the consecration when they were celebrating the Mass on the high seas. The devotional practice quickly spread throughout Christendom, particularly among men during their seasonal hunting expeditions, wherein they would pray the missa venatoria (the hunter’s Mass) when out in the field and away from the Church.

Abstract Over the second half of the 20th Century and the beginning part of the 21st Century, major change has occurred in the worship practice of many churches. Within this time frame enormous change has occurred in the social, economic, political, technological, scientific and religious framework of British society. Worship practice has been influenced by these changes. This doctoral dissertation sets out to explore how British Methodist worship has changed over the same time period. The focus of this dissertation is on change in the practice of non‐Eucharistic worship in British Methodism. This is the form of worship practiced most frequently in the British Methodist Church.

  • 1 a Brief Comparison of the Rubrics and Ceremonies Of
    A BRIEF COMPARISON OF THE RUBRICS AND CEREMONIES OF THE ROMAN MISSALS IN FORCE IN 1954 AND 1962 By Nicholas Morlin Introduction One thing that is lacking in the movement surrounding the restoration of the 1954 Missal is a small compendium that outlines the main differences between the Missals in force in 1954 and 1962. It is with this in mind that I created this document that attempts to cover some of the main differences between the two missals. I. General Changes regarding the Celebration of Mass 1. The Differences in the Ranking of Feasts and the Calendar The traditional ranking of feasts is as follows: Duplex I Classis (Double of the I Class) Duplex II Classis (Double of the II Class) Duplex Maius (Double Major) Duplex (Minus) (Double (Minor)) Semiduplex (Semi-Double) Simplex (Simple) The traditional system of ranking feasts comes from the rules for the recitation of the Divine Office. Feasts that are ranked duplex or higher (duplex meaning double) have their antiphons recited in full before and after the psalm. The feasts below the rank of duplex would not have their antiphons repeated in full before the psalm. Instead before the chanting of the psalm, the antiphon would only be intoned only up until the asterisk. After the psalm, the antiphon would be sung in full. John XXIII changed the rubrics in 1960 so that the antiphon was always repeated in full before all psalms, no matter their ranking of the feast. This is one of the reasons why the ancient ranking of feasts was removed under John XXIII.
