Why must we keep promoting female ministry? It is solely the priest who is able to act in persona christi during the Mass. Although many women serving at the altar have good intentions of being of service, that does not change the reality: the purpose of altar servers is to foster future priestly vocations. Some might argue, "But women serving at the altar can foster future religious vocations." Not necessarily, because nuns do not belong at the altar. Their mission is beautiful and very important, but it is different. This type of unnecessary inclusivity has contributed to the effeminacy of the Church and the shortage of vocations. A boy who sees a priest surrounded by female altar servers will not perceive that as masculine, nor will it motivate him to join the group. However, if a boy sees a priest surrounded by devout males, it strikes him as holy and heroic, and he will want to join. In fact, a survey conducted by CARA a few years ago revealed that more than seven out of ten priests ordained in 2020 had served as altar servers—an experience that led them to a profound understanding and appreciation of the Mass and the priesthood. If we want more—and holy—vocations, it is necessary to reserve this humble service at the altar for males, as designed by Our Lord.

This is called Consecration of an altar. Have you witnessed this before? Tell me in the comment section. Altar consecration by a bishop is a solemn ritual that dedicates the altar to God, setting it apart as a sacred place for the Eucharistic sacrifice. During the ceremony, the bishop anoints the altar with **Oil of Chrism**, a mixture of olive oil and balsam. This oil is also used in Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Orders.

When I talk against this, you will find some priest that will insult me saying you are not into pastoral. This is wrong and I am against it, the Pope Leo has talk about this inappropriate comportment during the mass. The church is a place of worship, the altar is a place of holy sacrifice not for an irritating spectacular dance that is not liturgical.

We come to Mass not to dance, clap, focus on the priest, etc. Jesus is the reason why we come to Mass. Jesus is why we are Catholic. Not the priest and definitely not the Pope. We are Catholics because of Jesus.

Fr. Mike Schmitz explained in simple words why Catholics all over the world make the sign of the cross. Many Catholics absentmindedly make the sign of the cross without even knowing why we do it in the first place. I hope that after watching this video, we make the sign of the cross with purpose and not just do it because it is a "ritual." The sign of the cross has very deep meaning, and it is always good that when we make it, we understand why we are doing it. 📹 ascensionpress

Dr. Scott Hahn: “I am drawn to the Traditional Latin Mass because of the transcendence, the presence of heaven on earth, and the majesty of God…to have the whole community and the priest facing, not just the altar, but heaven…it puts me in my place.”

“Every apostolic tradition has an altar.” No. No church in the Bible had an altar. No apostle told us to build an altar. Why? Because the sacrifice of Jesus is finished and final. No need to continue. To have an altar is to miss the gospel.

St. John Chrysostom: “When the Eucharist is being celebrated, the sanctuary is filled with countless angels who adore the divine victim immolated on the altar.” St. Augustine: “The angels surround and help the priest when he is celebrating Mass.”

Sanctification of the Altar with fire is an old interesting rite of the Catholic Church. It signifies the desire to invite God to accept the offering at the altar and to consecrate it for worship.

I accept the fact that the Catholic Church has those who are called extraordinary ministers of the Eucharist. But in this case, where a priest is right in front of the altar and is leaving that extraordinary minister, if I can assume, to return the Body of Christ to the tabernacle, I don't find it right. He can do that himself.

In the middle of Mass, a grandfather received the news that his grandson had committed suicide. With no one to comfort him, he went up to the altar and embraced the priest. It was as if God comforted him through him. 🥺

I reached out to Fr. Ripperger regarding the viral photo from his recent interview with Shawn Ryan. Here is his clarification: “The chapel is not complete and has not yet been dedicated. The high altar was also unfinished, and construction is still ongoing. It is not yet a ‘sacred space,’ as some have asserted.”

“Extraordinary Eucharist Ministers” should be abolished. There is no need for this policy. It undermines the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. A priest’s hands are consecrated for the purposes of the administering the Sacraments. Priests are formed and trained in distributing Communion. There is no need to have Sue and Karen distributing our Lord like a snack dispenser. This does nothing for the implicit teaching of the Real Presence. The excuse of long lines is a faux par. Altar rails make things simple: people kneel with their mouths slightly open, tongue slightly out, and the priest moves down the rail blessing and administering the Sacrament. It takes no time at all. But even if it did, time is irrelevant during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. It is a moment when heaven and earth are joined together. We kneel for humility and reverence, but it also most efficient. This EMHC/EEM policy is sacrilegious and unnecessary. Redemptionis Sacramentum (2004) limits/restricts their use, but somehow they have become the norm in N.O. Parishes. Why does the Vatican not speak out on this?

Same Church. Same Mass. If you thought the dancing on the altar was bad, check out all the ladies fiddling around with the Eucharist in the Tabernacle.🥴 Meanwhile the priest is playing maid with the altar girl.🤦‍♀️ The only one to bend the knee to Christ is the guy in the suit.

Those who serve or have served at the altar can testify that learning how to use the thurible is one of the most difficult tasks of an altar server and now, seeing this young altar server handle the thurible like a pro is just heartwarming❤️
