If this is true, we can expect to see a resurgence in older Catholics returning home.

I do hope they will mandate ad orientem, at least for the Eucharistic prayer. It takes the focus off the priest’s personality and makes him less of a showman. And what a great image of the shepherd leading his flock toward God. Our priest did ad orientem last Holy Thursday and it was great. With the microphone, you could hear the words fine, so there is no problem about that. The problem will of course be the kicking and gnashing of teeth of Spirit of Vatican II types if anything is mandated.

As a newbie with Tiber water still dripping from his ears, I have a question related to receiving the host in the hand vs. the tongue.

Is there any point in receiving on the tongue from a lay extraordinary eucharistic minister?

“a period of “study had begun” on what will probably amount to long-term reform after plenty of consultation.”

IOW, not in our lifetimes.
