When I go to mass I want to feel the presence of the millions upon millions of souls who have participated in The Sacrifice down through the ages. I don’t want some newfangled clean break. I want to be in that river of souls that leads to God through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Wow - that inspires a lot of thought. I am attending my first TLM tonight.

Your statement is one of the most simple,beautiful and true expressions that describe the immense value and awe inspiring effect of the Faith as preserved in the Mass. It also meshes the world we live in with the supernatural world that we live in,although too often,unaware. Thank you.

Please let me add my thanks to those who have commented on your brief yet beautiful description of why the usus antiquior is so infinitely superior to the novus ordo.
