  • The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler
    The Attractiveness of the Tridentine Mass by Alfons Cardinal Stickler Cardinal Alfons Stickler, retired prefect of the Vatican Archives and Library, is normally reticent. Not so during his trip to the New York area in May [1995]. Speaking at a conference co-sponsored by Fr. John Perricon's ChistiFideles and Howard Walsh's Keep the Faith, the Cardinal scored Catholics within the fold who have undermined the Church—and in the final third of his speech made clear his view that the "Mass of the post-Conciliar liturgical commission" was a betrayal of the Council fathers. The robust 84-year-old Austrian scholar, a Salesian who served as peritus to four Vatican II commissions (including Liturgy), will celebrate his 60th anniversary as a priest in 1997. Among his many achievements: The Case for Clerical Celibacy (Ignatius Press), which documents that the celibate priesthood was mandated from the earliest days of the Church. Cardinal Stickler lives at the Vatican. The Tridentine Mass means the rite of the Mass which was fixed by Pope Pius V at the request of the Council of Trent and promulgated on December 5, 1570. This Missal contains the old Roman rite, from which various additions and alterations were removed. When it was promulgated, other rites were retained that had existed for at least 200 years. Therefore, is more correct to call this Missal the liturgy of Pope Pius V. Faith and Liturgy From the very beginning of the Church, faith and liturgy have been intimately connected. A clear proof of this can be found in the Council of Trent itself.

  • Guidelines for Funeral Or Memorial Service Liturgies at St. Mary's
    Guidelines for Funeral or Memorial Service Liturgies at St. Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral “I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord; he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall not die.” John 11:25 We are an Easter people. As Christians our liturgy for the dead is an Easter liturgy. Because God raised Jesus from the dead, we too shall be raised. The Christian faith calls us to witness, even in death, the new life that God gives in Christ through his death and resurrection. Christian burial is marked by three characteristics. First and foremost, it is an act of worship wherein we glorify God for the gift of eternal life in Jesus Christ, our Lord. Second, it is a time when family and friends gather in the Holy Spirit to comfort one another and to offer mutual assurance of God’s abiding love. Third, it is a liturgy of celebration whereby we give thanks for a deceased loved one and commend that person to the care of Almighty God. The earliest records of Christian burial tell us that the following elements were included: • Prayer in the home before the burial took place • A gathering of the community for a burial service, consisting of thanksgivings, psalms, hymns, readings from the scripture, and prayers for the departed and those who mourn • Celebration of the Holy Eucharist • A procession of lights and torches to the place of burial • The interment of the remains As part of the preparation for burial, the faithful are urged to counsel with members of the clergy.

  • Parish Eucharist for Lent and Passiontide
    The priest says Dear friends in Christ, I invite you to receive these ashes as a sign of the spirit of penitence with which we shall keep this season of Lent. God our Father, you create us from the dust of the earth: grant that these ashes may be for us a sign of our penitence and a symbol of our mortality; for it is by your grace alone that we receive eternal life in Jesus Christ our Saviour. All Amen. The priest and people receive the imposition of ashes, the priest first receiving the imposition from another minister. At the imposition the priest says to each person Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return. Turn away from sin and be faithful to Christ. During the imposition The Lent Prose (Hymn No 507) is sung. The priest says The Lord enrich you with his grace, and nourish you with his blessing; the Lord defend you in trouble and keep you from all evil; the Lord accept your prayers, and absolve you from your offences, for the sake of Jesus Christ, our Saviour. All Amen. The Liturgy of the Sacrament Stand Introduction to the Peace during Lent Since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us access to his grace.

  • Rite of Catholic Funerals
    Rite of Catholic Funerals At the Hospital or at their residence Priest: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. The priest says the antiphon: I am the resurrection and the life, says the Lord: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever live and believe in me shall never die. Let us pray: Grant us, with all who have died in the hope of resurrection, to have our consummation and bliss in thy eternal and everlasting glory, and with the blessed Virgin Mary and all thy saints, to receive the crown of life which thou dost promise to all who share in the victory of thy Son Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. Sprinkling the coffin with holy water and then the celebrant says: With this water we call to mind N.N.’s baptism. As Christ went through the deep waters of death for us, so may he bring N.N. to the fullness of resurrection and life with all the redeemed. Amen. Then follows, the psalm, which is sung or said. (Psalm 103:13‐17 Quomodo miseretur) Like as a father has pity his own children: even so is the Lord merciful unto them that fear him. For he knows where of we are made: he remember that we are but dust. The days of man are but as grass: for he flourish as a flower of the field.
