GULP Alert: The Mass is more than just vestments



The Liturgy is both words and actions.

And in this case, it is really not just about the vestments and the ill-positioned crucifix.

(Goodness me!  They placed the cross to the side?!  Why would they even do that?  We can clearly see you kutis artista skin Father!  There is not even harmony or order in your arrangement?!)

Look at how the priest on the left side looks like.

Compare it with the priest immediately on his left.

Action do speak louder than words eh?

One is praying...

While one looks so boooored to death he can't wait for the Mass to finish!



Dear cross-armed Father,

Please have the decency even if you hate your cassock, but by your actions at Mass, please, we BEG of you...

SHOW us that you love what you are doing!

What you are at right now is more than kings and presidents can ever do.  Not even angels, not even most of the saints could do!

THIS IS THE MASS!


***

"Nothing means more to me or gives me greater joy than to celebrate Mass each day and to serve God's people in the Church.
That has been true ever since the day of my ordination as a priest.
Nothing has ever changed this, not even becoming Pope."
                                  ~ Blessed Pope John Paul II ~

 "Priest of God, celebrate this Mass as if it were your first Mass, as if it were your last Mass, as if it were your only Mass."

  2. The Crucifix is on the Side! How terrible! Is this the way to treat Jesus as if he were a Suuporting Actor?
