I wasn't interested in the seemingly endless trek of the laity to the altar for the ostensible purpose of inclusion.<BR/><BR/>I had enough of this when I was in non-denom churches. There was this undercurrent of pride if someone was asked to participate regularly in one fashion or the other. <BR/><BR/>So. I wasn't brought up with the Traditional Latin Mass (or as our Holy Father calls it, the "Gregorian Rite."). I was stunned when I found that it answered the cry of my heart. I wanted to find a place where reverence for our Savior reigned, where the focus was totally on Him and not ourselves. I wanted quietness so I could contemplate Him in all His glory.<BR/><BR/>Could I have done that with felt banners and a dancing priest? Not likely. But at the same time, I do wonder how many find a connection with God during the NO Mass which I find bland and uninspiring. Maybe they do. If they do, God bless them.<BR/><BR/>As for me, I'm a Latin Lover and hope to be for the rest of my days.<BR/><BR/>P.S. I joined the choir specifically to learn Latin. I love it. :-)Mary Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04107504165449607702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-70941958616756008762008-07-04T18:49:00.000-05:002008-07-04T18:49:00.000-05:00Amen and Amen!Amen and Amen!VSOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400266818545081938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-87128014148475280832008-07-04T18:09:00.000-05:002008-07-04T18:09:00.000-05:00Well Said, well saidWell Said, well saidJoe of St. Thérèsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506671882770822003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-92059893634105031292008-07-04T14:32:00.000-05:002008-07-04T14:32:00.000-05:00Well said!!Well said!!Kevin Whitemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07019976622801954677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-8466402664444482692008-07-04T11:16:00.000-05:002008-07-04T11:16:00.000-05:00Amen to that!Amen to that!Mulier Fortishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186202810919174492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18853193.post-35260835920389950552008-07-04T11:15:00.000-05:002008-07-04T11:15:00.000-05:00AMEN!AMEN!Simplex Virhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794134630791552159noreply@blogger.com
