When a priest is celebrating Mass, and he has started with the preface/Eucharistic prayer, he is never permitted to stop the sacrifice even if there is war. He had better die than stop. He must finish it. That's what this video tries to explain to you. Pray for your priest.

Traditional Catholic liturgical sources strongly support the principle that a priest should not voluntarily interrupt the Holy Sacrifice once the Eucharistic Prayer, especially the Canon, has begun. The traditional Roman De Defectibus of the Missal of St. Pius V provides that when a celebrant becomes incapacitated after the consecration, another priest should continue the Mass from the point where he stopped. This demonstrates the Church’s exceptional concern that the Sacrifice be completed. Likewise, The Order and Ceremonial of the Most Holy and Adorable Sacrifice of the Mass states: “The Church makes the greatest point of the Sacrifice not being interrupted before the Communion of the priest” and, significantly, “If he should have begun the Canon, all agree that he ought not to break off.” These sources strongly support the position that, once the Canon has begun, the priest should persevere in completing the Sacrifice rather than abandon it for ordinary difficulties. They demonstrate the extraordinary sacred obligation attached to continuing the Mass.

The devotion of Catholic priests should be studied.

Exactly... That's why it is a long time formation

Gbam!

It’s a really good book, but an Irish priest from World War II father Willie Doyle. It covers his topic. Those Irish Catholic chaplains ran into bullet fire to deliver the Eucharist. Oh, I wish we would’ve done Covid so different.

Haha 😆

Wow I never knew this 😦 may God bless & protect all Priests Amen.

Amen... Yes it is true

This one shock me ,I didn't know when I shed tears. I can't stop being a Roman Catholic.

@Legit_Bernard So beautiful

We can never have enough good priests.

Let's pray 🙏

People who wouldn’t even abide a hangnail will criticize this as “pagan” or “re-crucifying Jesus” or some other idiocy.

Because they understand nothing.. the wish to leave in their ignorance

Because even when the journey to the Cross became extremely difficult, Jesus didn't quit or try to run away. He persisted till the end. During consecration, the priest acting in Persona Christi must see to the end that Calvary sacrifice now being repeated on the altar because even though he is human, at that moment he is just but a vessel for Christ, a vow he voluntarily took at his ordination. In summary, to live is to serve God, to die is gain. May God bless our priests and fill them with the courage to live out the statutes of their calling as they lead us in the journey home.

Amen

Why is the most awful song ever taped over this man’s bravery

Don't get

That's a scene from spanish 1951 movie "Balarrasa"

This courage personified!

Exactly

This happened in my parish one time ooo. It was during morning mass and some guys entered the church with guns during the liturgy of the Eucharist and kidnapped a member of the church Omo father no gree stop ooo. He just carried on with mass

Hahaha 😂 Sorry that's the mass for you.. it is a mystery.. only priest understands what happens during that moment

@CSRNUEVO Dios nos de buenos sacerdotes en este fin de los tiempos. Benditos sean.

So in other words Catholics value ritual more than common sense.

I think you don't have sense that's why you don't understand value

Bendito sea Dios 🙏

Amen 🙏🙌🙏

🥰 I love it. I’ve known about this for years, regarding WWII, especially! Bringing the Holy Eucharist to embattled American forces on the battlefield! ❤️🙏

Very important

BEAUTIFUL. Sad to see priests that crawl under the altar

We need courageous priest

God's great

Always

I think this is where Catholics can be a bit extreme. As a Protestant, I believe in the real presence of Jesus. I don’t believe that if he was praying as tornado sirens were going off, and people were seeking shelter, that God would strike the Priest down if he didn’t finish.

No that's not the case

Exactly.. God always protect his servants

No thank you, the Pope is not infallible, he is a man, and you all worship him. Sad

Dios proteja e ilumine a todos los sacerdotes católicos del mundo.

AMEN 🙏

I never knew this.

Really... that's why we learn new things always

What if someone dies during Mass? Does the priest break off or carry on, ignoring them?

If is during the Eucharistic pray, he will not stop still after..

The life of a priest is not easy, watching that video is very emotional

You can say that again brother

Fr, I pray for you daily… just wanted you to know

Thanks very much

🙏

It's wonderful

Désolé, mais à ma connaissance cela n'est écrit dans aucun texte officiel de l'Eglise catholique.

Make your research

Recherche faite, aucun texte officiel pour enseigner qu'il faille terminer la prière eucharistique au risque de sa vie. Autrement dit, cela dépend des circonstances et de l'utilité du témoignage.

I learn something new everyday 🙏🏻

You are welcome

Wisdom, the Bible says, is profitable to direct. This isn't biblical. It's just Catholicism. Enjoy it

@OmiyaleOlufemi We enjoy it

👍🏻

God bless you 🙏

Why do some Priests now not even give wine, because of Covid?

Not win but blood

This is powerful

Yes

Well I love this .But I can't remember happening anywhere recently,not even in this country. Terrorist have always meant empty churches during attack,not that am proud of saying,they attacked in the first place.

I think I will disagree on this Rev.

What do you mean disagree? And why disagree?
