hopeful1 Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 i don't see what all the ruckus is about the changes in communion. THAT"S THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE PEOPLE!!! However, some of the priests at my parish do walk around while they give their homilies. I personally like that, i feel like that helps keep ppl's attention and it shows the priest is really into the homily. I don't see what is wrong with that, except maybe it could be a little distracting for some ppl " like where is this guy going to go now" instead of actually listening. but that's just my .02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aloysius Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 now we just gotta get their hands out of the tabernacle, get em to stop asking for a billion Extraordinary Ministers of Communion, and possibly chase them out of the Church with a whip... well, we might haveta exhast other measures first,,, but seriously, i'm about ready to fassion a whip myself. if i was the Pope, i'd send a message. a clear, strict one, and put it in place for about a month. NO EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF COMMUNION AT ALL. Then, once everyone had experienced THAT, i'd be like, okay you learned your lesson, now stop all the abuses or i'll havta institute that discipline permanently. seriously, the Vatican needs to crack the whip. it's gettin out of control.

GodsThespianChic Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 Personally, I'm an extraordinary minister of Holy Communion...but I would gladly give up the duty to a priest or clergy member...I do it because there is only 1, or maybe 2, priests at mass at a given time...and communion would take forever in my parish if they were the only ones to administer communion...so I don't see the problem, unless an extraordinary minister (EM) oversteps their duties.

Seatbelt Blue Posted December 23, 2003 Share Posted December 23, 2003 I would never have known about this were it not for my internet connection. There has been absolutely no news about the GIRM in Richmond, nor have there been any liturgical changes. We never kneel here at Epiphany - no kneelers - and we have a pretty orthodox pastor, but there are a few inconsistencies. I'm not sure how the liturgy is supposed to go. Maybe someone could provide me with a checklist of common liturgical abuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
