It took the Italian Bishops 18 years to publish the 2002 Novus Ordo Missal in Italian. From Easter 2021 Italy and the Vatican will use it.
In its introduction the Missal tells the faithful not to kneel during the whole Eucharistic prayer (1) and to receive Communion standing (13).
The priests are ordered not to use the Roman Canon customarily (6), and to preside behind the meal table toward the pews whereever possible leaving the altars uncovered (15).
The Missal wants purple for funerals, not black, and imposes a wrong translation of the Our Father. It ignores Benedict XVIs correction of the pro multis.
In the Masses for the Saints priests are downgraded to presbyters. Mother Teresa of Calcuttas feastday is omitted. Gregorian Chant is shunned.
Cristina Siccardi (CorrispondenzaRomana.it, October 21) calls the iconographic part, produced by the famous Mimmo Paladino, a true masterpiece of simplification and ugliness, A child would have created, for free, better drawings than these.

Praying that by Easter we will have a real pope who will cancel all of Bergoglio’s garbage.
My prayers go out to my Catholic friends. I weep for what has been taken from you.
That kind of fiddling with the liturgy is why my wife and I attend only the Traditional Latin Mass or the Divine Worship Mass said in the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter. In fact we’re heading out to an Ordinariate All Souls Mass in a few minutes.
Good for you!
Thanks for your prayers for the Holy Souls, the Church Suffering.
