These men have, by their example, constantly shown us great love, dedication, patience, support, and how to live wholesome lives. Feast of the Assumption, 2017 Page 40 Page 1 INTRODUCTION This Hand Missal is the result of a collaborative effort on the part of Paul Coffey, David Pietrusza, and Tanya Smith, all of St. Joseph’s Church in Troy, NY, and with assistance from the Latin Liturgy Association. It was developed under the auspices and with the encouragement of our priests: Pastor Sidoti, and Parochial Vicar Beltzner. The Carmelite Rite is a direct derivative of the Rite of the Holy Sepulcher as celebrated in the Holy Land during the Kingdom of Jerusalem, established by the Crusaders in 1099. As such, its provenance exempted it from absorption into the Roman Rite in 1570, when Pope Saint Pius V issued the papal bull Quo Primum Témpore. That Saint had a great respect for tradition and exempted any Latin rite that was already 200 years old or older (at the time of the bull’s promulgation) from conformance to the Roman Rite. Over the objections of St. John of the Cross, the Discalced Carmelites abandoned the Carmelite Rite in favor of the Roman Rite. But those brothers of the “Ancient Observance” did not. On April 30, 2011, another Pope with great respect for tradition, Benedict XVI, issued an instruction regarding his Apostolic Letter Summórum Pontíficum. Among other clarifications to Summórum Pontíficum, the instruction says, “The use of the liturgical books proper to the Religious Orders, which were in effect in 1962, is permitted.” And so we once again have this beautiful example of a Traditional Latin Mass as celebrated nearly a millennium ago in the Holy City of Jerusalem.

    82 9. The Liturgical Revolution – A New Mass “Truly, if one of the devils in C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters had been entrusted with the ruin of the liturgy he could not have done it better.”1 THE NEW MASS VS. THE TRADITIONAL MASS The Traditional Latin Mass, the most holy act of worship of the Roman Rite of the Catholic Church, was codified by Pope St. Pius V in his Bull Quo Primum in 1570. In his famous Bull Quo Primum, Pope St. Pius V forbade changing the traditional Latin Mass. Pope St. Pius V, Quo Primum Tempore, July 14, 1570: “Now, therefore, in order that all everywhere may adopt and observe what has been delivered to them by the Holy Roman Church, Mother and Mistress of the other churches, it shall be unlawful henceforth and forever throughout the Christian world to sing or to read Masses according to any formula other than this Missal published by Us… Accordingly, no one whosoever is permitted to infringe or rashly contravene this notice of Our permission, statute, ordinance, command, direction, grant, indult, declaration, will, decree, and prohibition. Should any venture to do so, let him understand that he will incur the wrath of Almighty God and of the blessed Apostles Peter and Paul.”2 On April 3, 1969, Paul VI replaced the Traditional Latin Mass in the Vatican II churches with his own creation, the New Mass or Novus Ordo. Since that time, the world has seen the following in the Vatican II churches which celebrate the New Mass or Novus Ordo: The world has seen Clown Masses, in which the “priest” dresses as a clown in utter mockery of God.

  • The Development of the Roman Rite by Michael Davies
    The Development of the Roman Rite By Michael Davies The Universe is the Catholic newspaper with the largest circulation in Britain. On 18 May 1979 its principal feature article was by one Hugh Lindsay, Bishop of Hexam and Newcastle. The Bishop's article was entitled "What Can the Church Change?" It was a petulant, petty, and singularly ill-informed attack upon Archbishop Lefebvre and Catholic traditionalists in general. It is not hard to understand why the Archbishop is far from popular with the English hierarchy, and with most hierarchies in the world for that matter. The Archbishop is behaving as a true shepherd, defending the flock from who would destroy it. He is a living reproach to the thousands of bishops who have behaved as hirelings since Vatican II. They not only allow enemies to enter the sheepfold but enjoy nothing more than a "meaningful dialogue" with them. The English Bishops are typical of hierarchies throughout the world. They allow catechetical programs in their schools which leave Catholic children ignorant of the basis of their faith or even teach a distorted version of that faith. When parents complain the Bishops spring to the defense of the heterodox catechists responsible for undermining the faith of the children. The English Bishops remain indifferent to liturgical abuse providing that it is initiated by Liberals. Pope Paul VI appealed to hierarchies throughout the world to uphold the practice of Communion on the tongue. Liberal clerics in England defied the Holy See and the reaction of the Bishops was to legalize the practice. The same process is now taking place with the practice of distributing Communion under both kinds at Sunday Masses.

  • The New Books for High Mass
    St. Martin of Tours Church, St. Martinsville, Louisiana THE NEW BOOKS FOR HIGH MASS For those who were familiar with the official books of the Church prior to Vatican II, the new ones are not necessarily easy to use, nor is their arrangement quite as crystal clear as a true simplification could perhaps have produced. However, for better or worse, the new books exist, although they are not as well known as they deserve to be. About one year ago, the writer was assured by a Benedictine monk that there is no longer any Latin missal. This article will attempt to list the Latin books of the Roman rite and to provide some comments on their use, arrangement, and content. Broadly speaking, the liturgical books can be divided into three groups: A. The Mass books 1. Missale Romanum 2. Lectionarium 3. Graduate Romanum 4. Jubilate Deo B. The Office books — Liturgia Horarum C. The books for the administration of the sacraments HUGHESDON: MASS BOOKS 14 The second and third groups of books are hopefully to be dealt with in a sub- sequent article. The books of the first group are of considerable significance and interest to the "ordinary" parish and are dealt with here. As during the four hundred years which preceded the Second Vatican Coun- cil, the missal is the primary, (but no longer the sole) book which is required for the celebration of Mass. The present missal, which incorporated the new rite, |! was officially promulgated by the Apostolic Constitution of Paul VI, Missale i"- Romanum, dated April 3, 1969.

  • The General Instruction of the Roman Missal Introduction
    THE GENERAL INSTRUCTION OF THE ROmAN mISSAL INTRODUCTION 1. As christ the Lord was about to celebrate with the disciples the paschal supper in which he insti- tuted the Sacrifice of hisb ody and blood, he commanded that a large, furnished upper room be prepared (Lk 22:12). indeed, the church has always judged that this command also applied to herself whenever she decided about things related to the disposition of people’s minds, and of places, rites and texts for the celebration of the Most holy eucharist. the present norms, too, prescribed in keeping with the will of the Second vatican council, together with the new Missal with which the church of the roman rite will henceforth celebrate the Mass, are again a demonstration of this same solicitude of the church, of her faith and her unaltered love for the supreme mystery of the eucharist, and also attest to her continu- ous and consistent tradition, even though certain new elements have been introduced. Testimony of an Unaltered Faith 2. The sacrificial nature of the Mass, solemnly defended by thec ouncil of trent, because it accords with the universal tradition of the church,1 was once more stated by the Second vatican council, which pronounced these clear words about the Mass: “at the Last Supper, our Savior instituted the eucharistic Sacrifice of his body and blood, by which the Sacrifice of his cross is perpetuated until he comes again; and till then he entrusts the memorial of his Death and resurrection to his beloved spouse, the church.”2 What is taught in this way by the council is consistently expressed in the formulas of the Mass.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See APOSTOLIC CONSTITUTION ISSUED BY HIS HOLINESS POPE PAUL VI MISSALE ROMANUM ON NEW ROMAN MISSAL The Roman Missal, promulgated in 1570 by Our predecessor, St. Pius V, by decree of the Council of Trent,(1) has been received by all as one of the numerous and admirable fruits which the holy Council has spread throughout the entire Church of Christ. For four centuries, not only has it furnished the priests of the Latin Rite with the norms for the celebration of the Eucharistic Sacrifice, but also the saintly heralds of the Gospel have carried it almost to the entire world. Furthermore, innumerable holy men have abundantly nourished their piety towards God by its readings from Sacred Scripture or by its prayers, whose general arrangement goes back, in essence, to St. Gregory the Great. Since that time there has grown and spread among the Christian people the liturgical renewal which, according to Pius XII, Our predecessor of venerable memory, seems to show the signs of God's providence in the present time, a salvific action of the Holy Spirit in His Church.(2) This renewal has also shown clearly that the formulas of the Roman Missal ought to be revised and enriched. The beginning of this renewal was the work of Our predecessor, this same Pius XII, in the restoration of the Paschal Vigil and of the Holy Week Rite,(3) which formed the first stage of updating the Roman Missal for the present-day mentality. The recent Second Vatican Ecumenical Council, in promulgating the Constitution Sacrosanctum Concilium, established the basis for
