cmotherofpirl Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 He means the priest should face east and not towards the people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morostheos Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 ahh, thanks for the clarification! What if your Church is built facing west, so facing east would be towards the congregation?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam42 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 [quote name='StThomasMore' date='Feb 13 2006, 10:40 PM']I dont know what that is. [right][snapback]886561[/snapback][/right] [/quote] The Missa Normativa is the Normative Mass. The Mass of Paul VI. The Missal of 1970. Whatever you call it, it is the normative Mass of the Latin Rite of the Roman Catholic Church. Anything other than that is an indult and permission must be granted in order to celebrate that Mass publicly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we face Christ in the tabernacle, we are facing the rising Son, ontological East, so it is an ontological position, not a literal one.

Brother Adam Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I sometimes go a novus ordo with all the 'smells and bells', and sometimes I go to a mass where they even raise their hands at the Great Amen. Yep, they're charasmatics. I've gotta much quieter spirituality myself. I've also attended Eastern rite liturgies. And the Tridentine is not superior to the Novus Ordo.

qfnol31 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 If you want, you could use the word assist. I was really weary about it myself, but then I found books from the early part of this century and late part of last century that use it (Sophia Press and Tan), so if you want, it's okay to use over hear.

No, I'm being serious, are you? I know SSPX'ers and though you are trying to act like one, I wonder if you aren't seriously here just to be a pain in the @$$. But its cool either way. Hopefully you will find the fulness of the faith and be drawn closer to the heart of Christ through the good people here at phatmass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resurrexi Posted February 14, 2006 Author Share Posted February 14, 2006 [quote]If you want, you could use the word assist.[/quote] I perfer the word "hear," though assist is a great word to use. I say "hear" because I do not participate by saying the responses at any Mass I go to, that is the job for the Altar BOYS (ie not girls). Assist is a good word when you mean praying the Mass with the priest by adoring Christ and following along in your missal with the priest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qfnol31 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 You can assist without saying the responses. I emphasize this because today no one seems to know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
