I hope the Church and the traditionalist church come together and renew together, so that the future will be new and old at the same time, because going back now seems impossible. I am hoping the result of this kind of merger will become something as beautiful as the past was. Thanks for posting the montage, Matthew!

Acting <I>in persona Christi capiti</I> there would be no self-aggrandizement there, because <I>how</I> can little, frail me ever act in the personhood of my Lord and God? Yet, that is what happens with Priests...<BR/><BR/>Did you see Ma Beck's post about an ordination? She wrote "a man dies, a Priest is born". I can understand her sentiment. Some people say Priests/seminarians are too hard on their selves, but I think of our Lord's instruction, "be perfect, as your Father is perfect" (<I>Mt</I>. 5:48).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13804788.post-34438393699731691012007-05-29T14:32:00.000-05:002007-05-29T14:32:00.000-05:00Mark, I also find great joy in thinking about pres...Mark, I also find great joy in thinking about presiding at the Sacrifice of the Mass.

It's difficult to put into words...but something about the Mass, as a sacrifice, as something you may one day offer. Does that make sense?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13804788.post-40731804722419913652007-05-29T08:45:00.000-05:002007-05-29T08:45:00.000-05:00In that case, it must have been Anglican-use Catho...In that case, it must have been Anglican-use Catholic Masses.Matthewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07929374709032473716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13804788.post-79240768711358889642007-05-29T08:26:00.000-05:002007-05-29T08:26:00.000-05:00Interesting!
