* Just for the lurking pedant - I am not claiming that either form of Mass is irreverent

Report from St Benedict's, Clydach. Congregation at today's 2pm Mass numbered 25!
That may seem small beer to those providentially fortunate souls who live in places such as Brighton or Blackfen or, even, Leyland! But, here in Wales, that constitutes a good sized turnout, especially for 2pm on a Sunday. Thanks to all those who organised it, served at the Mass and, of course, to the much loved priest who celebrated it.
NEXT MASS AT CLYDACH DUE ON SUNDAY 20TH MARCH AT 3PM

Yup you're right - there is not difference in reverence between the two Masses. You give two possible scenarios.
ReplyDeleteOF Masses can also be celebrated with a lot of recollection, love and dignity. And I'm pretty sure there have been EF Masses said with a great deal of hurry, little recollection, etc. It all depends on the celebrant and the congregation.
*there is no
ReplyDeleteI wish that a Latin mass was offered near where I live. :(
