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?

Went to Traditional Latin Mass with Mom earlier this morning. On both sides of the church (that you can’t see in my picture) they have relics of various saints built right into the altar rails.

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.

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.

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.

"the Latin Mass is the only one that has culture and tradition and beauty, therefore the Novus Ordo is bad and Vatican II was a mistake" <- tip off that someone is a white American

With the angle of the sun and the amount of incense used in the solemn high Mass, the chapel looked absolutely beautiful after Mass this afternoon!

Part of my daily personal devotional study time, I'm making quotes and affirmation notes to place on my mirror for daily reflection while I get ready for the day.

I called up the TLM church and left a message asking about Eucharistic Adoration times and details of their Catechism class. We’ll see what happens.

Your recent reblog from @acatholicrose has made me wonder two things:
Do you go to TLM or Novus Ordo Mass?
Do you veil in church?
I go to Novus Ordo Mass at my regular Parish. I have occasionally attended TLM, there is a Parish that follows it in the region I live in, but it is a hours long drive to get there.
I do not veil so far. I have thought about it and love seeing takes on it from fellow Catholic Ladies. I might take this step some day 🙏

I went to a TLM for the first time this Sunday and it was AMAZING. The choir and Latin was so pretty, and I was so nervous to wear a veil since it’s my first time but I was happily surprised to see nearly every woman/girl was wearing one too! I’ll definitely be going back and forth with TLM and the church near me.
