Priest denied traditional Latin Requiem Mass [Catholic Caucus]
Rotate Caeli ^ | 11/11/15 | Adhere

Posted on 11/11/2015 11:22:23 AM PST by ebb tide

Last Friday, Father Adolf Mohr (86) of Rheinbollen, Germany, died from cancer. After his retirement he returned to the Old Latin Rite of his youth. In his will he expressed the wish to be buried in this rite. His parish priest guaranteed him in writ that his wish would be respected.

But Trier Bishop Stephan Ackermann forbad the requiem. Ackermann is considered a radical who likes to speak about mercy.

Fr Mohr's funeral will be on Friday, against his wish, in the new rite.

Please help to prevent this disrespect of a priest's llast will. Protest now by writing in polite English:

The 13 year old boy is a hero in my book and I suspect his mom's. His mom apparently made sure he knew how to use the gun and he used it very well.

This is just wrong.

A priest of this age would have during his priestly vows given his solemn word to God to say the mass in liturgical Latin. He would also have sworn obedience to his church elders.

Vatican II force priest to break their vow to say the mass in the language of their parish or to ask for release from Holy orders so that they would never again say mass.

Now this priest having broken his vow to God so to remain obedient to his elders this bishop will not grant the obedient servant of the church his last wish even though the church now permits the old order mass.

A certain epithet referring to the male genitals seems appropriate.

Maybe certain posts have been deleted, but I see no reference in the posts or the original news report that refers to a 13-year old boy or a gun. What are you talking about?

Some braver priest needs to step to the fore.

Ackermann is considered a radical who likes to speak about mercy.

He is a hypocrite.

"Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you tithe mint, and anise, and cummin, and have left the weightier things of the law; judgment, and mercy, and faith." Matthew 23:23

Agreed.

Ackermann was consecrated a bishop by Reinhard Marx. They reproduce like roaches.

“...After a thunderous response from our readers, including priests (and most likely bishops), the ultra-leftist Bishop Stephan Ackermann of Trier, Germany, has reversed his decision and will now allow Fr. Andre Hahn of the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter (FSSP) to say a traditional Latin Requiem Mass for Father Adolf Mohr tomorrow...”
