Our Latin High Mass was absolutely PACKED this morning. And I heard the other Masses were fuller than usual, too.
How about in your neck of the woods?
As I said in one of my interviews on D-Day, this pope and his cronies are delusional if they think they will be able to rip the love of sacred tradition out of the hearts of the faithful who have discovered it. In point of fact, the more they try, the more incandescent this love will glow.
And no amount whatsoever of adding smells and bells to the Novus Ordo — the impossible dream of “fixing” the Novus Ordo, which every pope for fifty years has said should happen, and which has never happened in any serious way — will change this fact one bit. Because it is not fundamentally about smells and bells. It is about the traditional liturgy in its total integrity on every level, which breathes a timeless air and effortlessly leads us into the presence of God just by being what it is, no tinkering or salvaging needed.
THAT’S why the church was packed this morning at all three Masses.
And... “the dawn chorus,” consisting of a remarkable number of babies, was letting its collective voice be heard in no uncertain terms: we are the future of the Church.
