THE MASS? Extracts
from a recent Crisis Magazine
article (here):
Perhaps the best reflection of our
experience that Sunday was considering those filling the pews at St. Francis de
Sales. It was not a tiny group of elderly people who remember how beautiful
Mass was back in the 1950s, but rather a very mixed demographic that included
several young families, and there were 200 or more in attendance. The fact of the matter is, the Old Mass
has become new again, rediscovered by a new generation who will appreciate
it, something else Mosebach points out in The
Heresy of Formlessness. It is not simple nostalgia that
brings young Catholics to the Mass, but a need for a deeper experience than
they had been receiving from those who run the churches, the generation that
embraced a twisted understanding of the so-called “Spirit” of Vatican II.
Thinking this traditional Latin Mass,
I could not help but call to mind one of the parish revitalization programs
popular today . . . At its core, the “Rebuilt program” (one encouraged
actively in my home archdiocese) aims to create a welcome “weekend experience”
for the community . . . While everything in the Mass my daughter and I
experienced that late-summer Sunday was pointed to the Eucharistic Sacrifice,
the Rebuilt model appears to focus on everything else. The capital campaign to help restore
St. Francis de Sales Oratory is called “Tradition for Tomorrow.” Judging from
the number of those in the pew and their average age, and the simple desire
of our teen daughter to explore something other than our usual parish for a
Sunday Mass, the real success in growing the Church and saving souls will
take place when churches [and the Mass] are restored, not Rebuilt. STILL MORE BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS - OF THE FIRST TRADITIONAL BENEDICTINE ABBATIAL CONSECRATION IN U.S. HISTORY
