The same here. As a convert, I used to argue with my TLM Grandma. She passed in 2016. A couple of years later, I realized how I MUST veil. A year or so after that, I realized that I MUST only receive Our Lord on my tongue and kneeling. I go to a n.o. Holy Mass, as only 2 Catholic Churches in my entire county. Sometimes I drive 40 miles to a TLM, where there is so much reverence. I'm learning how to follow along in a missal a friend gave me out of the blue. Praise God!

Amen. Please Lord.

Yes they were...the scourge of Vat II

Go to a TLM

Some people treat the Church like their living room and tak up a storm. That's not even common courtesy.

Only God is holy.

Everyday

Good Teton99, on Whitsunday 1999 God delivered me from ever attending the Novus Ordo Missae ever again through the Sacrament of Penance, where I was counseled by Him: "It is a sin to go there!". Your pious intentions are holy and precious to God. Please pray to the Holy Ghost for the grace to forever leave the Novus Ordo; it is an evil spell that keeps souls bound in its horrific and constant sacrilege -- the pain you feel is also felt by God Himself (but obviously much greater and more complete in Him)! One cannot leave the Novus Ordo but by a special grace from God; I know I was in it for 8 years and could not leave for over a year even though I ABSOLUTELY KNEW its evil! I can help anyone leave the Novus Ordo and in God's graces, if they wish to. Please contact me via KZfaq.

Reyth77 Hogwash my friend. Leading people to leave the church puts yours and their souls in mortal danger. Please find a new priest to consult before it's too late. I'll pray for you.

teton99 : Is there no traditional Mass in Latin near you?

Don't give up... One can have reverence to God, my Big Boss, by submitting through humility, sacrifice, conviction and LIVING FAITHFULLY in everyday life (by refusing to SIN)!!! Keep the Faith, alive and ablaze. Be a living example to Reverence! Joseph theVagabond, and

@@thevagabondsgambit Amen

Mental prayer isn't prayers said silently. It's still vocal prayer if you are reciting the words of prayers in your mind. We need time to be still and shut up before the Lord so He has a chance to get a word in edgewise.

And here we are….. thank God most Bishops aren’t falling for it

Hi Francis, The Lord represents His Sacrifice on Calvary for ours sins out of love for us. For the love of God find a reverent mass done by the Society of St Peter and experience again the beauty of the Mass

Francis Caviani- The FSSP has kept the TLM.

It is deficit for me to kneel on the floors amid I have a hard time getting up without something to assist...I wait to be the last in line to receive on the tongue then step aside and then kneel on the step that goes up to the altar...I don’t care if anyone around me likes it or not...My complete focus is on the Crucifix

Fr. Rippinger, You are are contradicting yourself. If we are to be obedient to the magisterium, then we should follow the Novus Ordo. It was given to us by Pope Paul VI. I cannot even tell you how many subjects you bring up that I disagree with. My uncle was a Ukrainain Catholic Priest who was studied Theology and Philosophy. I will give you just one example of something you bring up that is very confusing. Mary Magdalene is told by Jesus " do not hold on to me, for I have not yet gone to my Father " Yet, later in the day, when he appears to the apostles, and to assure them he is real and not a ghost, Jesus tells then to put their fingers in the nail holes in his hands and feet and in his side where he is pierced. So they touch him, in a most intimate manner late in the day. ?? There are many contradictions in your talk that I could mention, but I am tired and not well. You sound very young - I don't believe you lived when the Latin Mass was the norm. Just because the Mass is said a " supposedly " more reverent language, because it " sounds " mote reverent and mysterious, the Latin mass did not begin like that. It was the vernacular of the people at the time ( latin speaking Roman citizens ). In the Ukrainain Catholic Church ( the Eastern Rite ) the language of the " Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrystostom " has always been in the Ukrainian language, although now mostly in English in North America because the third and fourth generations of the Ukrainian immigrants do not speak Ukrainain. And I am sure that you are aware that married men are allowed to become priests, before and after V2. ( Different canon law ) Many of the subjects you address are simply your own opinion ie, homeschooling, the type of chalice used and all sorts of subjects that have nothing to do with bring a devout Catholic or the Church. You do not need me to tell you that at the Institution of the Holy Eucharist, Jesus gave the apostles his body, under the species of bread, into their hands. And that the language used was Aramaic, the language they all understood and spoke. Enough. I sure you are convinced of your correctness, although as a life long practicing Catholic ( mother and grandmother ) who 64, I would beg to differ.

@@pjsmith4369 - I believe you are missing Fathers point. All of this modernization has led to laxity. Laxity, has lead to Carelessness, carelessness to disobedience and disobedience to Irreverence. Not all people have your experience and what seems to be Biblical knowledge. I for one am FSSP. Traditional, on my knees, never receive the Precious Body Blood of our Lord in my hands Catholic. It never felt right to me personally. I understand what his message is. It makes perfect sense to me. may God bless you and Blessed Virgin Holy Mother Love you adoringly. Via Christo Rey!

@ Carole: why not just receive Our Lord from the priest, on your tongue?

@@paisley293 exactly. Sometimes I am surprised what comes out of these fellow catholics. If not pandemic why not shake hands especially that the people in church are so ...how can I call it? Reserved I guess to put it nicely. Maybe because I am from the continent where welcoming faces are all over

That’s fine. Kneel in your heart in a sense. With disabled priests they can only bow

Kneel on the floor

@@kittyblaine7917 Unfortunately, we are not allowed. They won't offer the host if you are kneeling on the floor.

@@maryweisenbacher1034 That’s a shame…I would think any Priest would be more than happy to offer the host to you even if you were crawling up to him and I have seen ppl do just that…gratefully we are allowed to kneel on the floor though I am an old woman and know that if I did kneel on the floor I would not be able to get up without assistance

I am sure you know this Patrick but despite the new code of Canon Law, it is never permissable to receive the Sacraments from heretics or schismatics; Sacred Tradition always trumps postive material law (Canon Law) because not even the Pope has the right to teach against the full and entire Faith which has been handed down. Rather than sin, it would be better to stay at home and sanctify the day because going to Mass on Sunday is a precept of the Church, which means the Church is required to provide a licit Mass for you to attend. Oh and just to clarify for all, SSPX is not schismatic. True schism is departing from the Faith handed down from Christ through the Apostolic succession. It is better to die rather than enter into schism (those that promulgate the Novus Ordo Missae are in material schism with the Chair of Peter); it is better to obey God than men (Acts 5,29 drbo.org/cgi-bin/d?b=drb&bk=51&ch=5&l=29#x)

Reyth77 the SSPX is not schismatic. God bless

@LeadingThePack So your god disappears? Where does it say that in the Bible?

@LeadingThePack Where is it written, except by men not inspired by the Holy Spirit, that their traditions are equal to the teachings of God's word?

@LeadingThePack All born again Christians are indwelt by the Holy Spirit at the moment of salvation and thus can claim inspiration but only those directly inspired by the Holy Spirit to write the Bible were given a specific task for a particular moment in history. The Holy Spirit inspires, guides , corrects, instructs and warns in love in everything I do.

@LeadingThePack God.

@LeadingThePack You either believe the Apostles who wrote the New Testament or you don't. Paul wrote in 1Corinthians "We have received not the Spirit of the world but the Spirit which is from God. And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit." And in Galatians he said "I did not receive (his gospel) from man nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ." Don't try to make it seem as if the Roman Catholic Church decided who was inspired or you'd have trouble figuring out where the Old Testament came from to start with. The Holy Spirit is the divine author of all Scripture It is all God's handiwork. God preserves His word. Psalm 12:7
