The same here. As a convert, I used to argue with my TLM Grandma. She passed in 2016. A couple of years later, I realized how I MUST veil. A year or so after that, I realized that I MUST only receive Our Lord on my tongue and kneeling. I go to a n.o. Holy Mass, as only 2 Catholic Churches in my entire county. Sometimes I drive 40 miles to a TLM, where there is so much reverence. I'm learning how to follow along in a missal a friend gave me out of the blue. Praise God!
"If we are cheap with God, we are showing Him what we really think of Him." How humbling to be called to reflect on times I have been cheap with God. Have mercy on us, Lord. Give us the grace to revere you as we should.
Sadly when I was catechized as a child in the 90s, this wasn't emphasized very much. As an adult I have come to appreciate it. And I thank God for putting people in my life to educate me. Many people were let down in the past 40 years.
We can all bring back reverence and a sense of the presence of God in Church by keeping silent and refrain from talking. Respect for those who are praying. The priest need to lead us in this for many are socializing after Mass. This causes many of the faithful to speak out loud after Mass or and a before Mass. Many Catholics are terrible in their respect for Our Lords presence in the tabernacle. They cause the wounds of Christ to bleed again. We need to stop this abuse.
Thank you for this reminder! We are sending this prayer to our priest who is using his own form of a slogan throughout the liturgy. Most unpleasant. Lacks reverence. JMJ
As kids back in the day on Saturdays we would eagerly wait in line to buy a bag; lucky if we had 7 cents of pieces of hosts from the religious congregation that made hosts for mass. What I remember vividly is how beautiful and detailed the crucifix on the priest's host would be and the lamb embossed on the hosts of the faithful. Many boys would search in their bag of broken hosts to see if they could salvage a priest host that was somewhat intact to play saying mass. When I go for communion and look up and see just a kind of plus sign on the host it truly reminds me of what Fr. Ripperger is saying how ornate the chalices were and this goes also for the hosts and sadly now how things have deteriorated and changed. I truly wish those beautiful things that made the Catholic Church so unique and conducive to worship God would return and continue drawing us closer to HIM.
Lord, help me! I'm falling! I started out in the Catholic faith, having profound reverance in front of the altar while in a church. Somewhere along the line, I began cutting corners and non-shaulauntly changed my body language to haphazardly, genuflecting before the crucifix and tabernacle. Please pray for me to come back to the reverence I once had.
Oh how are we have fallen from reverence. I found that church is the last place to go when I want to pray. Showing up early to prepare for mass is pointless now. There is so much "business," going on its impossible to prepare. There is no knelling after the Lamb of God and no kneeling after communion either, so no time to prepare or make a thanks giving afterwards. I kneel anyways, I am sure I am some sort of a freak to the rest. Its hard to teach others reverence when our priest yaks in church before and after as well. I pray and beg God this will change in my life time.
Good Teton99, on Whitsunday 1999 God delivered me from ever attending the Novus Ordo Missae ever again through the Sacrament of Penance, where I was counseled by Him: "It is a sin to go there!". Your pious intentions are holy and precious to God. Please pray to the Holy Ghost for the grace to forever leave the Novus Ordo; it is an evil spell that keeps souls bound in its horrific and constant sacrilege -- the pain you feel is also felt by God Himself (but obviously much greater and more complete in Him)! One cannot leave the Novus Ordo but by a special grace from God; I know I was in it for 8 years and could not leave for over a year even though I ABSOLUTELY KNEW its evil! I can help anyone leave the Novus Ordo and in God's graces, if they wish to. Please contact me via TH-cam.
Reyth77 Hogwash my friend. Leading people to leave the church puts yours and their souls in mortal danger. Please find a new priest to consult before it's too late. I'll pray for you.
Don't give up... One can have reverence to God, my Big Boss, by submitting through humility, sacrifice, conviction and LIVING FAITHFULLY in everyday life (by refusing to SIN)!!! Keep the Faith, alive and ablaze. Be a living example to Reverence! Joseph theVagabond, and
Thank you Father. Your advice on mental prayer has caught my attention. Something that I do on a regular basis most particularly when I pray for someone else and for my family and myself.. The mental prayers help us to memorize some key prayers that are very helpful when said silently and for the growth of our spirituality and our protection from the invisible. I absolutely agree Reverence should be observed by the faithful.
Mental prayer isn't prayers said silently. It's still vocal prayer if you are reciting the words of prayers in your mind. We need time to be still and shut up before the Lord so He has a chance to get a word in edgewise.
A slight improvement over the sanctimonious slop preached at most Sunday masses. Not to mention the readings and holy communion being given out by teenagers in dirty running shoes, shorts and tank top. Lends a new meaning to the term "extraordinary minister."
*"These three things God requires of all the Baptized: right faith in the heart, truth on the tongue, temperance in the body".* ✍🏻+ _St. Gregory of Nazianzus_
Aesthetic questions on the nature of the leading to reverence and orderly worship are certainly raised to a great positing for our acknowledgement in the audience of Fr. Ripperger.
Bring back the good music, and all what the Catholic Church stood for. I don't going to church now because of its changes. I was an altar boy in the 1940's and it was beautiful. Good luck now to my church.
Hi Francis, The Lord represents His Sacrifice on Calvary for ours sins out of love for us. For the love of God find a reverent mass done by the Society of St Peter and experience again the beauty of the Mass
Pope Benedict was a good man. I wish he had ordered to end communion in the hand. I pray Francis doesn't do away with the Latin mass I have heard there are rumors once Benedict dies he will reverse the allowance of the Latin mass.
Oh my goodness me. Calamity!! Today, October 2021, we are sliding to perdition. Oh my! Through prayer our Lord, through the Immaculate heart of Mary, after praying to my guardian angel, I was directed to a reverent pastor. So pray for this and you will be led.
I am so sorry Pope Benedict didn’t get to implement the kneeling for receipt of the Eucharist. When you are in a line of people close to you it is quite an inconvenience to try to kneel especially if the Priest or Eucharistic Minister is a step above you.
It is deficit for me to kneel on the floors amid I have a hard time getting up without something to assist...I wait to be the last in line to receive on the tongue then step aside and then kneel on the step that goes up to the altar...I don’t care if anyone around me likes it or not...My complete focus is on the Crucifix

Fr. Rippinger, You are are contradicting yourself. If we are to be obedient to the magisterium, then we should follow the Novus Ordo. It was given to us by Pope Paul VI. I cannot even tell you how many subjects you bring up that I disagree with. My uncle was a Ukrainain Catholic Priest who was studied Theology and Philosophy. I will give you just one example of something you bring up that is very confusing. Mary Magdalene is told by Jesus " do not hold on to me, for I have not yet gone to my Father " Yet, later in the day, when he appears to the apostles, and to assure them he is real and not a ghost, Jesus tells then to put their fingers in the nail holes in his hands and feet and in his side where he is pierced. So they touch him, in a most intimate manner late in the day. ?? There are many contradictions in your talk that I could mention, but I am tired and not well. You sound very young - I don't believe you lived when the Latin Mass was the norm. Just because the Mass is said a " supposedly " more reverent language, because it " sounds " mote reverent and mysterious, the Latin mass did not begin like that. It was the vernacular of the people at the time ( latin speaking Roman citizens ). In the Ukrainain Catholic Church ( the Eastern Rite ) the language of the " Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrystostom " has always been in the Ukrainian language, although now mostly in English in North America because the third and fourth generations of the Ukrainian immigrants do not speak Ukrainain. And I am sure that you are aware that married men are allowed to become priests, before and after V2. ( Different canon law ) Many of the subjects you address are simply your own opinion ie, homeschooling, the type of chalice used and all sorts of subjects that have nothing to do with bring a devout Catholic or the Church. You do not need me to tell you that at the Institution of the Holy Eucharist, Jesus gave the apostles his body, under the species of bread, into their hands. And that the language used was Aramaic, the language they all understood and spoke. Enough. I sure you are convinced of your correctness, although as a life long practicing Catholic ( mother and grandmother ) who 64, I would beg to differ.
@@pjsmith4369 - I believe you are missing Fathers point. All of this modernization has led to laxity. Laxity, has lead to Carelessness, carelessness to disobedience and disobedience to Irreverence.

It never felt right to me personally. I understand what his message is. It makes perfect sense to me. may God bless you and Blessed Virgin Holy Mother Love you adoringly. Via Christo Rey!
Not showing Reverence the Blessed Sacrament and bad enough, but how people have found Consecrated Hosts is absolutely sick! It really hurts me to hear this, as I'm sure it deeply hurts Our Lord.
I think another argument to the Challas made of simple materials is that the cup used at the Last Supper was probably a simple wooden cup. Not that I support this argument myself. God deserves proper Reverence. Being raised with the Novis Ordo I am ashamed to say I don't show as much Respect for Our Lord as I should. If only we had internet like we do now back in the 80s.

I am sure you know this Patrick but despite the new code of Canon Law, it is never permissable to receive the Sacraments from heretics or schismatics; Sacred Tradition always trumps postive material law (Canon Law) because not even the Pope has the right to teach against the full and entire Faith which has been handed down.
