Seven Things I'd Like To See Happen...

Seven Things I'd Like To See Happen... Mac of Mulier Fortis has "tagged me" for a list of "Things I'd like to see... " She added this slight "nudge": Deo Volente, compiling lists of Traditional Latin Masses in Maryland, just in case he wants to have a go in between cutting and pasting Mass propers... though he probably won't. "What are the seven things that we, as Catholics, want or would like to see happen?" Okay, here is my list of Seven Things I'd like to see... : I am in agreement with Fr. Thomas Euteneuer, President of Human Life International . I would love to see the USCCB by " unanimous agreement " ask the U.S. faithful to recite the "Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel" after every Sunday Mass for the cessation of abortion in the U.S. and around the world. The prayer cards are available on the HLI.org website . I am in agreement with Fr. John Corapi who has labeled abortion as "genocid

The Black Biretta: Secretary of the CDW Reiterates: It's Time to Rethink Communion in the Hand

Fr. John Trigilio posts an interview by Bruno Volpe of Petrus with Archbishop Malcolm Ranjith, Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship concerning Communion in the hand . He also adds some fascinating comments of his own: Fr. Zuhlsdorf has consistently spoken of a gravitational pull between the ordinary and extraordinary forms of the Roman Rite, with which I totally and unequivocally agree. Many of us believe Pope B16 intends that both the TLM and the Novus Ordo mutually enhance one another insofar as the future of Catholic sacred worship is concerned. Since Divine Liturgy is integral to Catholic dogma (lex orandi, lex credendi), it is obvious that in this post Vatican II (and post JP2) era, a liturgical renaissance is unfolding. While still in the advent of such an epic moment, the most important element of contemporary worship is the decline in REVERENCE.

Communion in hand should be revised, Vatican official says

A story appearing on Catholic News Agency states that a high Vatican official believes that Holy Communion in the hand should be re-examined . Archbishop Albert Malcolm Ranjith, Secretary of the Vatican's Congregation for Divine Cult and Discipline of the Sacraments has said that the policy of giving Communion in the hand should be revised. Receiving Holy Communion in the hand "produces a growing weakening of a devout attitude toward the Most Holy Sacrament," wrote Archbishop Ranjith in the preface of a book from the Auxiliary Bishop of Kazakhstan, Bishop Athanasius Schneider. The book's title, printed by the Vatican Editing house, is “Dominus Est: Meditations of a Bishop from Central Asia on the Sacred Eucharist." Read Archbishop Ranjith's comments here .
