Christmas Traditions | 141 x Reader
Idc if it's not December yet, it's Christmas time. Might do a part two with Alejandro, Rudy, Konig, and others (need to do research on non-UK Christmas traditions)
John Price
Christmas is the only time of the year he can truly get away from work and he makes sure to get as far away as possible. He's rented a little cottage as north in Scotland as he can get.
You drive a car full of stuff up on the 20th, he allows 10 minutes of Christmas music per hour on the road.
He cuts down a tree for you, even if it's not totally legal to do so.
Most of the ornaments are yours, he never decorated before meeting you. He likes watching you stretch to reach the higher branches and will pick you up by the waist if need be. He likes putting the star on top.
You mostly spend your time together in bed or by the fire.
He's a splurge when it comes to gift-giving, a couple small gifts and then something big like a kitchen-aid mixer or something else expensive you've been wanting.
Spends Christmas night dancing with you even if he has two left feet.
Wishes he didn't have to leave on the 27th
Kyle 'Gaz' Garrick
He likes going out of the country for Christmas. Doesn't want to be in London, especially after Picadilly.
You almost miss your flight, running through the airport.
The location is always a surprise.
This year it's Gibraltar.
You have a nice hotel overlooking the ocean
Spend time at the beach and Christmas market.
The two of you spend Christmas eve watching old movies and drinking wine.
You love the trips but hope next year he'll bring you to meet the family. Maybe give you a ring too.
Matching Pjs, tea and biscuits is how you spend Christmas morning
John 'Soap' MacTavish
He's the one that buys the matching pjs.
Loves Christmas more than anyone else in the group
Takes you up to Scotland to meet the family even if you've only been dating for a couple months. His mom refuses to let him miss it.
Sings songs the whole drive up
Apologizes profusely for having to leave for midnight mass with his mom, and will hold your hand the entire time if you choose to go.
His mom barely leaves the two of you alone so any 'alone time' is in the car.
Not the best at gift giving, he watches you and his mom walk around the market and buys whatever you pick up. You have a lot of funny phrase mugs now.
Teaches you the proper way to pronounce "Nollaig Chridheil" (Merry Christmas in Scots)
Drags you outside when it snows to either build a snowman or pelt you with snowballs
Simon 'Ghost' Riley
Wouldn't even realize it was Christmas if it wasn't for you
He kind of panics because he didn't plan anything or get you any gifts
Lots of last-minute shopping.
Gets a little charlie brown type tree. You're both taller than it but make orange slice ornaments and a popcorn garland. It makes the flat smell incredible if a little buttery.
He can put up with one movie so pick carefully. He might fall asleep but he's still wrapped around you.
You fall asleep on the couch as the little spoon and wake up the next morning with a stack of presents by your little tree. He's somehow still behind you.
Traditional English breakfast and tea Christmas morning
You got him a bracelet with your name and the date you met stamped on it, even if he can't wear it in the field it's always in a pocket.
You can convince him to go with matching socks but nothing more
He's just glad the two of you are together and will try to do whatever tradition you want if it makes you happy.

Question for my Catholic lovelies:
Do you veil/should women veil? I have veiled a few times when attending TLM but I've yet to feel spiritually compelled to do so (not saying it won't happen). I've thought about trying it out for a month or so to see if it is something I feel called to do (ex, I did this with kneeling and receiving the Eucharist on the tongue, and the act of doing so in combination with greater prayer brought about a greater reverence for the Eucharist, which is what I was hoping for), but I do not wish to give off a "holier than thou" vibe at my NO parish where hardly a soul veils. Thoughts?

A brief comparison of the liturgical prayers of the TLM (traditional Latin Mass) and the Novus Ordo.
Most practicing Catholics know that major revisions were made to Roman Catholic Mass in 1969, but aside from the language of the liturgy, what has changed?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Latin Mass has nearly twice as many prayers as the New Mass.
Orations
Of all the rotating prayers (orations) 83% are unique to the TLM. In the new missal, 669 of the original 1,273 orations have been removed, and of the remaining, only 13% were left unchanged.
Tumblr media
Reverence
Even the number of times the priest kisses the altar, genuflects, and makes the sign of the cross, has been severely reduced
Tumblr media
A Different Cycle of Scripture Readings
The new Roman missal has a three year cycle - a well intentioned attempt to expose the laity to more scripture in the Mass. However given the nature of the three year cycle, it's inevitable that the readings will not align as appropriately and succinctly as the specially chosen readings of the older one year cycle when it comes to specific feasts and the liturgical seasons, a choice of quantity over quality unfortunately.
I leave it to the reader to decide for his or herself whether the older one year or newer three year cycle is preferable.
Tumblr media
The Last Gospel
Catholics who have never attended a Latin Mass may be surprised to learn that following communion and dismissal, there is a lengthy gospel reading called The Last Gospel (John 1:1-14).
Why the last Gospel?
From the notations of the 1962 Roman Daily Missal:
The Mass began with the longing cry of the Old Testament: "Send forth Thy light and Thy truth!" It could not be concluded in a more worthy and more sublime manner than with the words of St. John: "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us; and we saw His glory as of the Only-Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth."
And according to Catholic author Msgr. George J. Moorman, in his book, The Latin Mass Explained:
This reading, in the course of time, was added to the Eucharistic service on account of the great reverence the early Christians entertained for this portion of the Gospel and because it contains a summary of the benefits of which we are made partakers through Christ’s Sacrifice. The service was introduced by the prayer of the priest: ‘Send forth Thy Light and Thy Truth!’ It could not be concluded in a more becoming manner than with the words, ‘AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us; and we saw His glory, the glory as of the Only-begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.’ At the words ‘AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH’, the priest and the people kneel on one knee in token of adoration of the mystery of the Incarnation, which is expressed in these words, and to indicate that the Son of God came from Heaven to earth. When the priest has finished the reading of this Gospel, the server answers, ‘Deo Gratias’—‘Thanks Be To God.’ These are the last words of the Mass.
Unfortunately this beautiful gospel passage and it's place of honor have been completely removed in the New Mass, and it's omission may even (as a matter of personal opinion) have contributed to the enormous number of people who leave Mass early immediately following Holy Communion.
Conclusion
Dearest Reader, I have attempted to be objective and only present facts in the above, however it may be clear to those of you who are familiar with my blog, where my biases lay. I am a Latin Mass Catholic, I love the traditional liturgy and will never stop advocating for the timeless Mass of ages that has brought untold numbers of faithful to the Lord for over a millennia. However, I make no judgment on the faithful who prefer the New Mass, nor do I mean to suggest that the Novus Ordo is in any way invalid. I only ask that all consider the information I have compiled and do your own research, that you may come to your own well informed conclusions. God Love You!
If any have questions or further interest in the topic of the Traditional Latin Mass my DMs are open or you may send an 'ask', I will answer or redirect you to the best of my ability.

I had a sudden memory flashing of the Christmas times when I was a child and all was about ballet, Noël Mass and family dinner. All the presents. Everything, surrounded with sparkles, glitters. Baby pinks and blues everywhere. I miss those innocent days. During those nostalgia moments, I desire so much to be a child again.

«Nous sommes les déshérités. On nous a privé de tout passé parce que les pédagogues, qui ont décidé de notre éducation, se sont crus supérieurs à nos ancêtres. Élevés comme des enfants rois, une fois adultes, nous sommes devenus sentimentalement fragiles, détruits par le moindre échec ou le reproche le plus infime. Nous avons grandi en passant du sentimentalisme mièvre de Disney au porno trash en libre accès, notre rapport à l’amour et à la sexualité est du même ordre que notre rapport à la consommation : nous voulons tout, tout de suite, et nous nous décourageons devant la difficulté.»
Academia Christiana. Une aventure catholique et enracinée, Victor Aubert.

St George & Merry England!
This country may have a more complicated past than some may like to think, but let us never forget that which made our country great. Let us build upon it, learning from the successes as well as the mistakes and failures; let us make England great again and put the "Great" back into "Great Britain!"

Work is underway rebranding my website as part of my developing photography & photojournalism business, with the aim of having my "Michael's Mission" blog/podcast launch on Pentecost Sunday 19th May. Together we can restore England to her true greatness and help other nations revive theirs too!
Happy St George's Day everyone!
