PhuturePriest Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Bad. The Sanctuary isn't a ballroom. Leave your ballet and your tutus outside of the sanctuary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatitude Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 ^ Agreed. I like religiously inspired dance, it can be very beautiful, and I am sure that Catholic dancers would want to use their art to glorify God. But there is a place for that and the sanctuary isn't it.

This, exactly. I didn't know the Byzantine had the Novus Ordo mass. That confused me, too. Is Byzantine the same as the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom?

Amppax Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Use the word "media" in [] tags. Thanks! Is that a change? I recall at one point being able to just copy past a URL, and poof! video! Or am I imagining things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PadrePioOfPietrelcino Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Are they in the sanctuary or the chancel? while, I'm no expert in Eastern Architecture... I'd say neither the step is where I see the chancel beginning and the sanctuary is further back. In any regard I do not see a specific problem here as we historically have had concerts and other social gatherings in the Church outside of the liturgy. Without having seen dance and lacking more knowledge I won't let my feathers get ruffled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarysLittleFlower Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I don't feel comfortable with dancing in the church... that's my take on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
