tinytherese Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I attended 1962 style masses at the Benedictine Sisters of Mary Queen of Apostles for when I was discerning with them. They are one of the rare traditional religious communities that are in union with Rome. Those masses were beautiful, besides they have translations for you to follow along with.

Though for some reason they decided to use the ICEL's translation of the Words of Consecration. Also, I don't see what place the Memorial Acclamation has in the Anglican Use liturgy... or the Offertory prayers invented in 1969... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I wonder whether the Anglican Use parishes in the United States will alter the words of institution when the rest of the Roman Rite in America does in a couple of years.

rkwright Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Just wondering... are there special seminaries for priests wanting to celebrate the Anglican use mass? Where did you find that Church Apo? I'm in San Antonio often and would love to stop by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slappo Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 One of my friends has a bumper sticker saying "Why go ordinary when you can go [i]extraordinary[/i]?" That being said, I prefer the Novus Ordo mass, but there are things that I think are lacking in it. The 1962 missal is beautiful and I think the Novus Ordo would have a lot to gain by adapting things that used to be done. I went to an extraordinary form today for mass though.

TeresaBenedicta Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Hmm. I have different experiences of worship in both forms. In the extraordinary form, I very much feel 'lifted up' in worship. It requires a higher level of concentration, I think. Because the ordinary form is so familiar to me, it requires a different type of concentration. I'm not sure how to explain the difference... I think with the ordinary form, I'm able to unite myself to the individual prayers much easier, but with the extraordinary form, obviously it's difficult to unite myself with the individual prayers, but it's much easier to see the entire Mass as a prayer. As to which I prefer? I like both. I also like the N.O. in Latin. I have the hardest time concentrating during irreverent Masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up with the NO and now find it much more "demanding" "intellectually" than the usus antiquor - which I've only really been familiar with for about a year or so. At the UA I can just "let go" and pray - although seeing as the structure of the NO is relatively similar, my years of exclusive NO attendance may be helping with that.

mortify Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) [quote name='RemnantRules' post='1794593' date='Mar 1 2009, 10:04 PM']Jesus didn't have the Last Supper extraordinary style.[/quote] We tend to forget the reason why Jesus celebrated in a house was because the Jews rejected Him. Had they accepted Him as Messiah He probably would have celebrated in the Temple, on the golden altar His Father prescribed to be built. I imagine His celebration would have been much closer to a Solemn Papal Mass, than some of these Novus Ordo Churches that try to mimic the historical last supper. But God knows best.

mortify Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) Personally I would not remain in a parish that did not offer the reverence our Lord deserves, unless it was the only parish available. For me to stay would only encourage irreverence. For this reason I attend the traditionally minded Novus Ordo parishes and Tridentine Masses. To say "The Eucharist is present" and ignore the problems just doesn't cut it. Edited March 2, 2009 by mortify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Church Punk Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I perfer the extraordinary mass to most ordinary. Although if the ordinary is done well, with chant and held sacred, it can be just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
