Ef Mass


Amppax

Recommended Posts

Good to hear you liked it. I am so pleased I finally gave the EF Mass a go - sadly I was put pff for a long, long time by some websites :unsure: It is not the Mass I would choose to attend exclusively, but I do get a lot from it and as nanny to a very demanding child, that hour or so of almost complete silence where I can allow myself to focus solely on God and then recieve Him in the eucharist, is time I treasure.

I'm actually impressed that you've gotten over 600 posts in this place and didn't know what it was! I think that takes some skill!

When I first read the title I thought it was meant as swearing at the thought of mass (abbreviating the f-bomb). It angered me until I read more posts :P

I think I'd want a friend to go with me to my first ef mass, so I don't feel too out of place >_>

I've been to an EF Mass a couple times. I sat in the back, and that way I could see what the people in front of me were doing so I knew they weren't all looking at me and thinking, "What is she DOING?" :smile3:

Haha, yeah, it's hard not to feel like a visitor or nonCatholic when you go to the first one.

As for an elf mass....would that be in elf-latin (ie, Quenya)?

Because if so, I would soooooo go! It's a beautiful language; it sounds like Finnish.

Here's the Lord's Prayer in Quenya:

[quote]
Átarema i ëa han ëa, na aire esselya,
aranielya na tuluva, na care indómelya cemende tambe Erumande.
Ámen anta síra ilaurëa massamma,
ar ámen apsene úcaremmar sív' emme apsenet tien i úcarer emmen.
Álame tulya úsahitenna mal áme etelehta ucullo.
Násie.
[/quote]

See, I can already say 'Amen' so we're good to go! :)

Readings would have to be limited, though. So far, the only parts of the Bible that have been translated are: the first two chapters of Genesis, Luke 2, the first 5 chapters of Matthew, and everything by John. No, really: [url="http://folk.uib.no/hnohf/"]http://folk.uib.no/hnohf/[/url] Scroll down to '[color="#ff8800"]Post-Tolkien Quenya Compositions[/color]'

Explain the syllable stress of Quenya?
