Section 1: Understanding the Real PresenceWe should always dress in our sunday best. Why women should veil at holy massActive participation in the liturgy Practice of receiving the Eucharist on the tongue.Preparing for the Traditional Latin Mass1. **Latin Language:** The TLM is celebrated predominantly in Latin, offering a unique linguistic experience compared to the vernacular Novus Ordo Mass.2. **Ad Orientem Orientation:** The priest often faces the altar together with the congregation, fostering a shared focus on God, distinct from the versus populum orientation in many Novus Ordo Masses.3. **Silence and Contemplation:** Expect more extended periods of silence in the TLM, encouraging personal reflection and contemplation.4. **Chant and Polyphony:** Gregorian Chant and polyphonic singing are frequently integral to the TLM, adding a distinct musical element.5. **Liturgical Actions:** The TLM involves intricate liturgical gestures, such as specific postures, genuflections, and ritual movements, contributing to a sense of reverence.6. **Communion Reception:** Communicants often receive Holy Communion on the tongue while kneeling at the communion rail, offering a traditional practice distinct from standing and receiving in the hand.7. **Unique Prayers:** Unique prayers, such as the Prayers at the Foot of the Altar, Last Gospel, and various prayers said silently by the priest, characterize the TLM.8. **Rich Symbolism:** The TLM incorporates profound symbolic gestures and rituals, emphasizing the transcendent nature of the Mass.9. **Use of Incense:** Incense is frequently used, adding a sensory experience to the worship and symbolizing prayers rising to heaven.10. **Liturgical Calendar:** The TLM follows the traditional liturgical calendar, which may include distinct feast days and seasons compared to the Novus Ordo.11. **Different Missals:** Worshippers typically use hand missals in the TLM to follow the prayers and readings, in contrast to participation aids often provided in the Novus Ordo.In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Personally, I love a beautiful, reverent liturgy. It is a source of great love, devotion, and transcendence of the mind and heart to the things of God. But what good is a beautiful Sunday liturgy, what good is the thousands of years of refinement, what good is the most sublime of prayers, if that magnanimity of soul only exists for an hour a two a week. If every other moment of your week is dedicated to the vulgar, what good is beauty? So today I want to help you to recognize the vulgarity of the world and implore you to reject it in favor of a sublime life.  In my appeal I do want to emphasize that this is NOT an on and off switch that we can just reject all things vulgar without a special grace from our Lady. I myself fall into many of the habits of the Vulgar World. Living a sublime life is like any virtue, it takes time, the will to change, and repetition. So please do not feel that you are being personally attacked by anything said today, every aspect applies to me as well. Before I finish my introduction I want to give everyone an outline, in hopes it will help you to remember at least some aspects of the talk. First, I want to expose the vulgar-egalitarian revolution for what it is. To show you that it is present in every aspect of our lives. I will be focusing on clothing, language, food, and actions. Much more could be said about movies, books, music, etc. but perhaps for a future date.Second, I will explain what I mean by the sublime life. How is sublimity differentiated from beauty? I will demonstrate that to live a sublime life is to live a divine life, which necessitates being an anti-egalitarian. I will give examples of what this looks like in real life and prove that our exterior life reflects and affects our interior life. Thirdly, and most importantly I will conclude with Our Lady as the exemplar of the sublime life. Finally, as I conclude my introduction with an invocation to Our Lady and to the Angels, that they may lift our minds and hearts to heavenly things and fill us with a desire for the sublime and a hatred for what is vulgar. The attire of the body and the laughter of the teeth and the gait of the man show what he is. (Ecclesiasticus 19:27) Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic ConversationsSupport the showEnjoy the content, wanna support? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adrianfonseca Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations

‘The Synod Process Is a Pandora’s Box’: A Cry of Alarm That Raises Hopehttps://www.returntoorder.org/2023/09/the-synod-process-is-a-pandoras-box-a-cry-of-alarm-that-raises-hopes/ Get the book now! The Synodal Process Is a Pandora’s Box is now available for $10.95.Click here to get your copy now.Moreover, a significant part of Catholic public opinion is beginning to show disquiet at the excessive invocation of the Holy Spirit as a propeller of the synodal process. This invocation, made as it were in a definitive and final decree, seems to belie the excessive haste of progressive minorities to impose some largely debatable issues and other issues that the Church’s Magisterium has already closed definitively.Suppose we add to this the synodal documents’ often hermetic language, understandable only to insiders. In that case, we understand how the real People of God feel “lost, confused, perplexed and even disappointed,” to paraphrase John Paul II.11TFP’s The Synodal Process Is a Pandora’s Box has come out precisely in this confusing and seemingly inexplicable situation.By explaining what is at stake simply and directly, the book has put together the pieces of a puzzle. Based on statements by its leading advocates, the work made it clear that the synodal process is neither transparent nor spontaneous but yet another attempt to revolutionize the Church. Many of the faithful have felt mocked and have begun to raise their voices so that “[people] began to make explicit [their] fears about what might happen in the Church after the assembly.”12The future is in God’s hands through the universal mediation of Mary Most Holy. However, one thing is certain: any attempt to change the Church’s divine constitution or infallible doctrine is hopeless, as Our Lord Jesus Christ founded the Church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against her.Support the showEnjoy the content, wanna support? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adrianfonseca Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations

The goal of Christian Civilization, from a certain point of view, is to create a state of things where everything invites one to the practice of virtue and works against the practice of vice. It is precisely the opposite of modern civilization, where everything invites one to the practice of vice and works against the practice of virtue. -Prof PlinoCheck out Jeff's wife's women's conference @authenticwoman5 https://restoretradition.comAdrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic ConversationsSupport the showEnjoy the content, wanna support? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adrianfonseca Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations

Canon Law has relegated the holy days to local bishops or provincial synodal decision. There are actually, as of 1993, only seven states in the U.S. that still celebrate the Ascension on Thursday rather than the following Sunday. I was surprised to find that Hawaii and Canada have only two holy days of obligation, Christmas and the Immaculate Conception for the former, and Christmas and the solemnity of the Mother of God (January 1) for the latter.https://catholicism.org/ascension-thursday.html St. Vincent Ferrer, O.P. – Sermon on the Ascension https://www.svfsermons.org/B189_Ascension.htm Support the showEnjoy the content, wanna support? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adrianfonseca Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations

Devotion to Mary as Model of Penance Intro Catch up for a second about Lent25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus, his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen.26 When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son.27 After that, he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother. And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own. prayer Car accident had too much to drink, texting and driving and blasting music you strike a car killing a young man the only son of an infertile mother. If you are a man of any sort of conscious the moment of your freedom from prison you would fling your self to the feet of that mother and beg her forgivness. For who could not look at that woman and not weep at what she lost. How much more you who took her son from her. Now this becomes even worse when we realize that our lady is not someone elses mother for she is the mother of God and our mother Have you ever gravely offended your siblings and you get chastised by your mother and you apologize to your mother for your behavior yet your mother says don’t apologize to me apologize to your brother.Here we have a right instinct to apologize to your mother for to offend her children is to offend the parents. Yet the mother’s response is also right, for the terminus of the apology should be with the directly grieved party.So thus with our lady who takes all we have and directs us back to her son. Model of confession: After sinning repent to her as the son does who offends his brother  She will direct you to the confessional After coming out of the confessional fall to your knees and repent as the drunk driver does to the mother of the son you killedOne more story, the mother who forgive her sons murderer If this can be true of a natural virtue how much more is she who is all virtue  Prayer to our lady of sorrowsScripture28 He also took him into his arms, and blessed God, and said:29 Now thou dost dismiss thy servant, O Lord, according to thy word in peace;30 Because my eyes have seen thy salvation,31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples:32 A light to the revelation of the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.33 And his father and mother were wondering at those things which were spoken concerning him.34 And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother: Behold this child is set for the fall, and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and for a sign which shall be contradicted;35 And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed.Support the showEnjoy the content, wanna support? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adrianfonseca Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations

Responding to the following Tweet:Catholicism is NOT Biblical.Here are 14 reasons why. 🧵Let me clarify: I don’t hate Catholic people.My reason for posting this is to bring the truth to light and set people free from this false gospel. Catholicism is the largest denomination in the world, yet not true to the Bible.Global estimates suggest there are approximately 1.2 billion Catholics in the world.Let’s all remember that Satan is the father of lies and his #1 weapon against us is deception. He twists the truth, has created false gospels/doctrines and deceived many into following a ‘religion’ but never having a personal relationship with Jesus.Satan is not anti-religion, he is anti-Christ and although Catholics claim to love Jesus, their beliefs and gospel are simply unbiblical.Catholicism vs. Biblical ChristianitySupport the showEnjoy the content, wanna support? https://www.buymeacoffee.com/adrianfonseca Adrian Social MediaIG: @ffonzeTwitter: @AdrianFonzeFacebook: Adrian FonsecaYouTube: Adrian Fonseca YouTube: Catholic Conversations
