The...I had the same experience as Mark, first post. The TLM captured me and brought me back. I know more about my faith now through the Tridentine Mass than in all my years studying and receiving Cathechis during the turbulent years of the institution of the NO and Sacraments. I learned nothing about Trent or the years before 1970,except for the perhaps 1st century life of the Apostles and Christ..A return to the primitive roots I was told..It was if the Church between 100 AD and 1970 AD was ignored. Now I am getting it all. Thank the Good Lord for Our Holy Father and his release of the Tridentine Mass and all good Priests who are fostering its' growth. Here in NY however, it is still quiet on the MP and its' implementation, those thanks to the internet and a faithful few that is slowly changing and a few Masses are coming up. In fact a 1962 Pontifical Mass scheduled for March 25, I believe in Manhattan. Pray for its' success.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-25008300806353141542010-02-27T11:48:02.771-05:002010-02-27T11:48:02.771-05:00Have you seen this:

Problem was the catechism was so poor that I had vary little understanding of what was going on in the Mass. Because of this I found myself feeling detached, and bored, I felt like a spectator at an event I had seen over and over. I fell away for 30 years. When I returned to the Church, once again I felt some of the old feeling creeping in, but I stood steadfast. When Pope Benedict released Summorum Pontificum on the use of the Latin Mass I was curious about how we had worshiped for previous 1400 years. I attended the first extraordinary form of the Mass on Sept 13th 2007, and was awakened by the beauty, reverence, and sacredness of this form of worship, I found a greater understanding, a rich depth of who Christ is, and how fortunate we are to be with him in the most Holy Eucharist. I am learning more about the Mass, and feel much more integrated in the community that worships our most merciful, and loving God. While I understand I do not deserve to even be at the Mass, I am truly blessed to be able to be their in His presence. I have a greater understanding of the Mass. The new translation will be the best thing to happen to the liturgy since Pope Gregory the Great 1400 years ago.<br /><br />Mack AshabrannerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
