In Regards To Christmas-There Are Steps To It & 40 Years Since The Change(MMCMXCV)

Out With The Old & In With The New:

The Liturgical Calendar Begins with This Sunday in The 1st Sunday Of Advent-The Gloria Is Not Sung nor recited, as Advent Is a Penitential Season, leading to Christmas. There are Four Sundays;

So, to those who are Liturgically-Inclined, I say Happy New Year. I know it's not January 1st, but for The Church Catholic & Apostolic, a New Day & Year is Dawning;

Forty Years Ago at This Time, The Holy Sacrifice Of The Mass was updated to a New Form. Sadly, so was the Music, which went from Solemn to Please Don't Ask. Thank Goodness, there are places which will NOT play that Music and do utilize the Time Honored Gregorian Chant Of All The Ages, as well as Hymns Of Praise;

But, the Traditional Latin Mass is being offered in much bigger numbers than ever before. Even now in the Ordinary Rite, more Parishes are placing the Tabernacle at The Center, WHERE IT BELONGS. The Three Chairs in the Middle, without the Tabernacle There, looks either Broad Church Anglican or Lutheran, or Masonic in arrangement;

But things are looking up for The Better;

Pax Vobiscum;
