THE LATIN HIGH MASS

A Positive Experience of Catholic Continuity

In the 1960s, the Second Vatican Council was a hope-filled sign of the Holy Spirit. For many, it inspired genuine enthusiasm. But even in those early days of reform and renewal, some of the enthusiasm was misdirected. It was all in the interpretation. Last week, we spoke of the "hermeneutic of rupture" and the "hermeneutic of continuity." Those who viewed Vatican II as a watershed for the Church and its dialogue with the modern world were correct. Those who saw it as a parallel to the Protestant Reformation or a compromise with Modernism were wrong. While there were those who called for more radical change and a “rupture" with the past, it was not what the Council Fathers nor the official documents intended. The liturgical documents of the Council did not outlaw Latin. In fact, The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy gave Gregorian Chant "pride of place in liturgical services" (# 116). While the vernacular was gradually introduced, Latin texts were always included in subsequent editions of the Roman Missal. Pastorally, Masses in Latin were, at times, restricted or even forbidden. Cultural changes in the United States and parts of Europe greatly influenced the liturgy, its music, art and environment. These changes swept away many things that had not been proscribed simply because they appeared to be "outdated.” Because of this apparent discontinuity, some left the Church, others petitioned for a right to use the Tridentine Mass. In time, Latin Masses in the Novus Ordo and the Tridentine form became more accessible through the efforts of Pope John Paul II and, especially, our present Holy Father, Benedict XVI. Why is pastoral experience of the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite important? In the introduction to his Apostolic letter, Summorum Pontificum, Pope Benedict observes:

“It is known, in fact, that the Latin Liturgy of the Church in its various forms, in each century of the the Christian era, has been a spur to the spiritual life of many saints, has reinforced many peoples in the virtue of religion and fecundated their piety " While he was still Cardinal Ratzinger, the Holy Father wrote The Spirit of the Liturgy. It is a book worth buying and reading. One of the differences between the Extraordinary and Ordinary Forms is, of course, the use of Latin, Why Latin? It is a strong link with traditional worship in the Catholic Church since the "Age of· Martyrs.” Moreover, in the international, multilingual, and multicultural community, it can foster unity. Beyond that, Latin, as a "dead Language," is not subject to change. Add to that the vast treasury of music in Latin by great composers. It is a legacy too rich to ignore! Another difference in the two forms is "Orientation"-- i.e., facing East in worship. "Orientation" was totally misunderstood and dismissed by some liturgists who favored a "rupture" from this the ancient, venerable tradition. In The Spirit of the Liturgy, the present pope devotes a whole chapter to the issue. “Pop theologians” used phrases like "celebrating toward the wall" or "turning your back on the people" to describe orientation. But the pope traces the custom back to antiquity. Jews turn toward Jerusalem and Moslems to Mecca when they pray. Christians too faced East in prayer almost universally. There was something cosmic and mystical--the "rising sun" and an association with the first day of creation when God said: "Let there be light!” Orientation helped everyone to be symbolically God centered. Focus on facing the crucifix rather than the priest at Mass again emphasizes that we are worshipping God and that Christ is the Eternal High Priest. Pope Benedict is very critical of the contemporary practice of the priest facing the people at Mass. His observation is challenging. “In reality what happened was that an unprecedented clericalization came on the scene. Now the priest-- the “presider,”’ as they call him-- becomes the real point of reference for the whole liturgy. Everything depends on him. We have to see him,

Page Three Second Sunday of Lent March 20, 2011

to respond to him, to be involved in what he is doing. His creativity sustains the whole thing … Less and less is God in the picture.” It is clear that the pope is restoring the Extraordinary Form to strike the proper balance in the Ordinary Form as well as to provide a needed, more traditional style of worship. Is it a re-emphasis on the sacred? Yes! Again, he has much to say about the centrality of the cross in worship. “Is the cross disruptive during Mass? Is the priest more important than the Lord? The mistake should be corrected as quickly as possible; it can be done without further rebuilding. The Lord is the point of reference. He is the rising sun of history."

At a Mass in the Extraordinary Form, it is customary to receive Communion on the tongue from a priest or deacon. Kneeing is the proper posture. At our Mass with Bishop Perry, kneelers will be provided as they are for papal Masses with Pope Benedict. Servers with patens will assist the celebrant and other priests or deacons in distributing Communion. It is not our

custom here, but let it be part of your experience of the Extraordinary Form on this unique occasion. Finally, remember that Monday’s Mass is not some kind of “Museum Rite.” It is part of our living Catholic tradition. It is not “romantic” or “nostalgic”-an attempt to bring back the past. Rather, it is an occasion to see the “old and the new” as compatible and con-tinuous. It is an opportunity to reach higher and deeper into our Faith and Tradition… to recognize the blessing of Catholic continuity!

Benedicamus Domino! Deo Gratias!

-Fr. Luczak

Financial Update

Last Sunday’s collection, for the second week in a row, exceeded our budget target! For the month of March we are running $360 ahead of our goal. On a year to date basis we are $7,658 behind budget. In comparison to last year we are running $7,149 ahead of last year’s results. Last weekend over 1,400 individuals attended mass at St. Isaac. Imagine what could be accomplished if each person contributed just one dollar more.

We wish to express our thanks to all parishioners who continue to give of their time, talent and treasure in support of the Parish

ABOUT OUR ALMS RECIPIENTS

This weekend’s alms (March 19-20) benefit Zaccheus Hous, a not-for-profit, non-treatment home providing a safe, supporting and spiritual home to men in transition. It began in 1999 through the efforts of a group of African American Deacons with the support of Bishop Perry and the approval of Cardinal George. Next weekend’s alms (March 26-27) will assist Sunday Mass at Mercy Home, the “Parish of the Airwaves” begun in 1992. It is a spiritual aid to those unable to leave their homes to attend Mass because of age or illness. The Mass is filmed at Mercy Home for Boys & Girls and broadcast on Sunday mornings on WCIU, Channel 26, at 7:30 a.m. Advance Reminder: EYEsee will be the recipient of our outreach the weekend of April 9-10. It is a student service organization of St. Viator High School in Arlington Heights, which collects new and used eyeglasses to be distributed this year to the poor in Haiti, Honduras, the Philippines, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Uganda and Kenya. Students will be here that weekend to receive your donations of prescription and non-prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses. Children’s glasses are especially needed. Ask the help of family and friends to help give the “gift of signt” to the poor! Please note the organization is not allowed to accept monetary donations, only eyeglasses. Thank you! Your prayer and monetary/item support of these alms recipients is greatly appreciated and will be a blessing to them!

BIBLE STUDY

Bible Study will not meet Wednesday morning because of the Mission video presentation. We will resume on March 30th, at 9:30 a.m. and focus on the Letter to Philemon.

ROMAN MISSAL As we prepare to implement the new English translation of the Third Edition of the Roman Missal, the book of the public prayer of the Church, it is a good time to reflect again on the source and summit of our Christian life, the Eucharist. The Liturgy Board will feature articles from the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (2010) over the next several weeks to assist that reflection. “Ministries and Roles Within the Liturgical Assembly at Mass” When the Church comes together in the liturgical assembly to celebrate the Mass, or any other sacrament, her members do not gather simply as a crowd, as an amorphous, undifferentiated group of people. They gather in a variety of ministries and roles. If we are to understand the significance of these ministries and roles, we must begin with Baptism, for only one who through Baptism has been given a share in the priesthood of Christ is capable of participating in the public worship which is the liturgy of the Church. In fact, the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy of the Second Vatican Council tells us that participation in the liturgy is the right and duty of all the baptized. The first qualification, then, for any participant in the celebration of the Eucharist is that he or she has been baptized into the Body of Christ, the Church. Each time the members of the Church gather to worship, they do so because their baptism demands this of them. While all share in the priesthood of Christ which delegates them to worship, some members of the Church are called by God to serve in the ministerial priesthood as bishops and priests. Bishops and priests are privileged to act in the liturgy in the very person of Christ, on behalf of his people, pronouncing the most sacred prayers of our faith, presiding over the celebration of the sacred mysteries, explaining God’s Word and feeding God’s people on the body and blood of Christ. A bishop has the added responsibility of being the chief shepherd, the principal liturgist of his diocese and in that role is the successor of the Apostles. Others by God’s grace are ordained to the ministry of deacon. In the celebration of the Mass deacons proclaim the Gospel and assist the bishop and priest in exercising their sacred duties. In addition to the ordained ministries there are roles in the liturgy which are exercised by lay people who place their time and talent at the service of the liturgical assembly as acolytes (altar servers), lectors, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion, cantors, choir members, instrumentalists, leaders of song and ushers. Others contribute their time and talent to planning and organizing the liturgy, to keeping the church and the vestments, vessels and appointments clean and well-ordered or to providing decorations that reflect the spirit of the liturgical feast or season. The General Instruction makes it very clear that this variety of offices and roles is desirable and should be maintained. In fact it goes so far as to state: …all, therefore, whether they are ordained ministers or Christian faithful, in fulfilling their offices or their duty, should carry out solely but completely that which pertains to them.” Not only, therefore, is it desirable that individuals function in roles of service at Mass, it is clear from the Instruction that if a deacon, for example, is present, the priest celebrant or a concelebrant should not read the Gospel. And the lector should not also take on the role of server and/or extraordinary minister of Holy Communion. There is a wide variety of services to be performed, and it is desirable that different individuals exercise those services so that the talents and gifts God has placed within the Christian community are fully utilized and these roles of service are not monopolized by a few.

Page Seven Second Sunday of Lent March 20, 2011

It is not sufficient, however, simply to have a “warm body” filling a given role. Those engaged in liturgical roles need to be well-prepared for those roles and to know how to carry them out with reverence, dignity, and understanding. Obtaining the proper preparation requires a further gift of time on the part of the person being prepared as well as on the part of those in the parish responsible for the training of liturgical ministers. Finally, the practical task of assigning individuals to particular Masses and organizing the distribution of roles is another indispensable element in the fabric of well-ordered liturgical ministry in a parish. But before individuals can be prepared for liturgical roles, there must first be individuals who are willing to assume those roles. All the baptized need to understand that part of their duty regarding liturgy is to accept some responsibility for the liturgy, to place themselves and their God-given talents at the service of the liturgical community whenever possible. If liturgy is a duty as well as a right, then part of that duty for those able to undertake these tasks is the responsibility to assume such key roles as those of lector, server or acolyte, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion, usher, choir member, etc. Whether one brings up the gifts at the Presentation, reads the word of God, assists with the distribution of Communion and brings Eucharist to those unable to be present at Mass, serves at the altar, provides music that augments the joy, solemnity and festivity of the celebration or serves the assembly community as an usher, he or she is contributing to the worship of the community and fulfilling the responsibility that comes with Baptism. Not all members of the parish community will have the time, energy, strength or ability to serve in these roles, however, individuals must be careful not to excuse themselves too easily. And it might also be helpful for us to reexamine our situation every so often. The time available to a business person or to parents with young children may be very limited. But eventually business people retire and children grow up, leaving those individuals more free time at their disposal. What is important is that all understand that the celebration of liturgy is not just the responsibility of the pastor, although he is delegated by the Bishop to oversee the liturgical life of the parish. Pastors need the help of their people, the people who are serious about living out their baptismal right and responsibility to worship. Finally, this catalogue of specialized roles might give the impression that those who are not exercising one of these roles are free to sit back passively and simply let the liturgy happen around them. Nothing could be further from the truth. Those who come together for liturgy do not have the luxury of acting as passive “pew potatoes,” waiting for all to be done for them. The liturgy is not only their right, it is their duty, their responsibility, and that responsibility includes full engagement throughout the liturgical celebration. The baptized faithful who form the congregation are called to join in praise and thanksgiving in song and spoken word; to listen attentively to God’s Word, to exercise their baptismal priesthood in prayer for the Church, the world and all in need during the General Intercessions. In the Liturgy of the Eucharist they join their prayer to that of the priest celebrant, offering Christ the Victim, not only through the hands of the priest, but also together with him and offer themselves as well (GIRM, #95) and their participation culminates in the reception of the Body and Blood of the Lord, the sacrament which unites them more fully with Christ their Head and with one another. In their sincere efforts to participate, those present minister to the priest celebrant, to others who serve in liturgical roles, and to one another. Their attention and active engagement in the celebration can draw from the priest celebrant and the other ministers the best they have to offer. Their enthusiastic song and verbal responses made with conviction can encourage others to sing and respond; their very presence at the celebration of Mass when so many other enticing options might have been chosen instead supports and reinforces others who have made the same choice. The liturgy, then, is about the action of God’s own people, each with different offices and roles, each office and role, from that of bishop and priest to that of usher and sacristan, one of service, not of privilege, a mirror of Christ who washed the feet of his disciples and instructed his followers to imitate his example of service.”

BULLETIN SICK LIST While we know that the sick and hospitalized are always to be held in our thoughts and prayers, the parish sick list in the bulletin has gotten quite long as the one month listing policy got a bit away from us. The current list will be taken out after this weekend. Please remember that all names are then in-scribed in the Book of Community Prayer and that we pray for the intentions of the community (including those in the Book of Community Prayer) each weekend during the Masses. Please remember that we cannot (by law) publicly let our parish community know the health status of any of our members without their permission. The process for calling in names for the bulletin list is as follows: Names for the sick list in the bulletin have to be called in by the person who is ill, or by a member of their family. At the time they call in the name they will be asked whether they are the sick person him/herself, or a member of their family, and if they give permission for the name to be placed on the list. They will be asked for the correct spelling of the sick person’s name. If a family member, they will be required to give their name for our records. The name will be in the bulletin for one month.
