ironman Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 What's up guys......I was wondering how many people in here have been to the Latin Mass. I've been to both the new and old, and feel they are both important. I can see why the new Mass was created, I can also see why the some still like the old. I would like to know other people's opinions........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorphRC Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 The Latin Mass is held by the SSPX here in South Australia, in the city. Theres another one somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironman Posted August 23, 2004 Author Share Posted August 23, 2004 The Latin Mass in my area is aligned with the Diocese of San Bernadino, they have a retired Priest say the Mass. Yeah, that's too bad the only Latin Mass in your area, is by the SSPX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarieCecilia Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 Hey yeah I've been to the Tridentine Mass many times. I think its absolutely beautiful and I'm sorry for those who haven't ever experienced that part of our Catholic Tradition. I wish that out American bishops would allow it to be celebrated more often but I also love the Novus Ordo and am rather attached to it. My opinion is that both are beautiful but that we certainly are not allowed enough Latin Masses in the USA for many to be able to give their opinion on it.

Laudate_Dominum Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 I love the Tridentine Mass and have been countless times. I used to have a hard time going to the new Mass (because of people not doing what the Church says), but if its done reverently, and without weird liturgical abuses, I like it.

ironman Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 What I like about the Tridentine Mass a lot, is their are way less distractions. New Mass is awesome too, when done reverently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MorphRC Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 I prefer all the ritual, bending, blessing etc. The new one is kinda plain, compared to the Latin Mass. But im glad they have kept the part near or at the consecration [cant remember sry], where the Priest sings, some to it in Latin, which I like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironman Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 I was at the Family Conference and a lot of the singing was done in Latin. Latin to me is the most beautiful mysterious language, I can see why so many want to preserve the Latin Mass. There's a new order of Priests that JP2 has appointed to preserve the Latin Mass, it's the order of St. Peter. I'm so glad the Pope has done this, hopefully somdeay their will be Latin Masses in every major city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sursum Corda Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 I too love the Latin Mass! I especially like the reverence - there seems to be so much more respect for the Real Presence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironman Posted August 27, 2004 Author Share Posted August 27, 2004 I went to talks by Fr. Shannon Collins, Fr. Bill Casey, Fr. Mitch Pacwa, Fr. Ron Stone, Michael Cumbie, I met Scott Hahn, but didn't get to go to his talk, I bought some of his CD's though....it was an awesome conference....over 9000 people there. The laity is getting much stronger nowadays, Catholics are learning their faith and evangelizing.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
