Tridentine Mass

Experiencing a “New” Form of the Mass In my ninth grade year, my Greek teacher, Mr. Jason Lalonde, S.J., gave us an extra credit opportunity—to attend a Mass in the Extraordinary (Tridentine) Rite of the Mass. I had never been to a Tridentine Mass before, so I didn’t know what to expect or think. Since I wanted a little cushion for my Greek grade, I decided to try this out; and my grandparents, who enjoyed bringing me to the Mass, attend the Mass almost every week. Because of my experience, I learned something very important: experience is a good way to learn something. Prior to actually attending the Mass, I had only heard bad things about the Tridentine Mass, e.g. it was long, boring, and in a dead language. My father’s biggest gripe was that it had too many, “smells and bells,” too many incense and bells. I was nervous when I walked into the nave of the parish. My grandmother handed me her old 1962 Roman Missal and showed me how to rudimentarily use the Missal. When the Priest came from the sacristy to the sanctuary, I started using my missal and the pipe organ started…

“Ah, I see you are ready to go, Nightingale Sapienti,” Action Andy said to Virgil, dressed in the ceremonial uniform of his all-boy Catholic high school in Wilmington, Delaware. He then smiled, “I hope your time in my outfit would be fruitful one for you.” Virgil returned the favor. “How nice of you, Action Andy,” he told him in a polite one. “What are my orders regarding the Remnants and the South American Catholic school students?” The leader of the Nightingales informed him by saying:…

Over the period of time the art movement has changed drastically. Usually when the art changes it relate to the era that it was in. During the 19th and 20th century the “style of art history” increased in the passing decades’ art historians tried to avoid stylistic classification when it could be avoided. When it comes to art any piece is capable of being analyzed and compared in terms of style. Each art piece has its own identities and uniqueness the only one that has an incomplete identity is…

advanced concentration. The procedure of osmosis is vital for all living entities. So, to understand Osmosis is to understand all living things. When a solution that has the same osmotic weight as another substance, mostly one in a cell is said to be Isotonic because the solutes inside and outside of the cell or the same (Microscopy and Microscopes Magazine 2013). They balance each other out. If concentration of a solute is less outside the cell versus inside the cell, the cell tends to be…

Liturgical Church Evaluation: Prince of Peace Catholic Church For my evaluation of a liturgical worship service, I visited Prince of Peace Catholic Church in Muskegon, Michigan. I attended the 10:30 mass on Sunday March 6th. Before the service, I was very excited to experience worship in a liturgical setting. Having learned about liturgical worship in class, I developed a greater appreciation for the the way that many of our Christian brother and sisters worship. Their tradition and…

For my other religious experience I had the privilege of attending a friend’s Catholic wedding. The church was everything I expected it to be with tall beautiful stained glass windows and sturdy wooden pews. Even though the church was in the middle of downtown Nashville, I felt as though I was in some peaceful little town in the middle of nowhere. The whole experience was more of a shock than I was expecting; I knew that mass would be different than attending my normal church, but I honestly had…

Our World How many women and men are unsatisfied with their body image? How many people could say that they have never judged someone based solely on their looks or their body figure? Body image in the world today consists of the perfect figure for both men and women. The perfect body figure resembles an in shape, healthy, and tan body. Though being skinny and being in shape are two different concepts. Many women struggle with what other people think about their body image. Becoming doubtful,…

Intuitively we know that the size of an object can have a significant impact on its dynamics. We have seen athletes or animals creating moves beyond our imagination, as shown in Fig. 4.1. This is because their ability in manipulating different parts of their bodies in creating dynamic complexities shown in the images. Certainly we would not be able to ignore the role played by each part of the body if we were to analyze the dynamics of an extended object. However, there is one point, associated…

distance should be equal. 4. A Why: before he jumps, he moves as the car does (with a same velocity); after he jumps off and lands, he still has the same velocity with the car, therefore, he could easily fall toward the direction that the car moving to. 5. B Why: inertia is the object’s resistance to changes in velocity and is related to the object’s mass. At first, those two balls are moving with car, so they has the same velocity. Since m1>m2, which means changing the velocity of the first…
