In his weekly column in the Catholic Review , "Thoughts on Our Church," Archbishop O'Brien offers a meditation on the Eucharist . Some days ago, I treated myself to a day of prayer centered on the sacrifice of the Mass and the Holy Eucharist. In particular, I have over the years been struck by the profundity of recent papal meditations on this Mystery of Faith. This Holy Thursday I would like to offer you, without scholarly references, a sample of the sublimity of those meditations in the hope and prayer that this Lord’s Supper and every Mass in your future will draw you more deeply into this greatest mystery of all mysteries of God’s love. In a much overlooked letter to all the bishops of the world, Pope John Paul II noted that, “Beginning with the Upper Room and Holy Thursday, the celebration of the Eucharist has a long history, a history as long as that of the Church … in the course of this history … there has been no change in ‘mysteries’ instituted by the Redeemer o

I am indebted to the Tridentine Latin Rite Missal Project for this post . The Holy Thursday Mass readings appear to be fully accurate except for the special forms of the Communicantes , Hanc Igitur , etc. which can be found only in a Missal such as the Summorum Pontificum F.S.S.P. version of the Baronius Missal . GOSPEL ¤ John 13. 1-15 † Continuation of the holy Gospel according to St. John. † Sequentia sancti Evangelii secundum Ioannem. [Washing of the feet. Humility of Our Lord Jesus Christ.] Ante diem festum Paschae, sciens Iesus quia venit hora eius, ut transeat ex hoc mundo ad Patrem: cum dilexisset suos, qui erant in mundo, in finem dilexit eos. Et coena facta, cum diabolus iam mississet in cor ut traderet eum Iudas Simonis Iscariotae: sciens quia omnia dedit ei Pater in manus, et quia a Deo exivit et ad Deum vadit: surgit a coena, et ponit vestimenta sua: et cum accepisset linteum, praecinxit se. Deinde mittit aquam in pelim, et coepit lavare pedes discipulorum,

PANGE LINGUA Pange lingua, gloriosi Corporis mysterium, Sanguinisque pretiosi, Quem in mundi pretium Fructus ventris generosi Rex effudit gentium. Nobis datus, nobis natus Ex intacta Virgine, Et in mundo conversatus, Sparso verbi semine. Sui moras incolatus. Miro clausit ordine. In supremae nocte coenae Recumbens cum fratribus, Observata lege plene Cibis in legalibus, Cibum turbae duodenae Se dat suis manibus. Verbum caro, panem verum Verbo carnem efficit; Fitque sanguis Christi merum: Et si sensus deficit, Ad firmandum cor sincerum Sola fides sufficit. TANTUM ERGO SACRAMENTUM Veneremur cernui: Et antiquum documentum Novo cedat ritui: Praestet fides supplementum Sensuum defectui. Genitori, Genitoque Laus et iubilatio: Salus, honor, virtus quoque Sit et benedictio Procedenti ab utroque Compar sit laudatio. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Sing, my tongue, the Savior's glory: Of His Flesh the mystery sing; Of His Blood all price exceeding. Shed by our immortal King.

This was posted previously, but I thought I'd do it once more . Click this link for a previous post summarizing the schedules here (Baltimore) and in D.C. I have posted the schedules for Saint Alphonsus and for Saint James the Greater in Charles Town, WV. DC Catholic has a link to the DC calendar of events. Also note the list of Parishes on the menu bar to the right . Many have their bulletins online on their website and so will have their particular Holy Week schedules. Also, check here . This is a search from MassTimes.org and lists ALL Latin Masses in the region (both the TLM and the Ordinary Form). This may help you narrow your search. Note that Silver Spring was chosen arbitrarily as the "center" for this search. Finally, here is a list of all Parishes in the Baltimore metro region . The times include Sunday Mass and Vigils. Many have web pages. If you know the zip code you are visiting, you should be able to find a "close fit."

This is Father John's annual Holy Thursday column, it seems. The title speaks for itself . Here is a short snippet: If you have been informed that vir means only "men" and that excludes boys or youths, then you were probably misinformed. Vir refers to a person’s sex , not his age . There are specific Latin words to indicate categories of age in males, such as puer , adolescens , iuvenis and senex . The word vir can tempt a strict interpretaion of "man" in the sense of "adult male", but that would be too strict. Also, while clearly the Apostles were men, not boys or youths, the point is that they were "male", not that they were this age or that age. The Apostles were present in the Upper Room because they were chosen by Christ to be priests . And there is only a juridical, not an ontological, limitation on the age a male can be ordained. In any event, this whole debate has been cleared up more than once by the Holy See, especially
