2020 – Stage intensif de latin

“Pourquoi l’Eglise emploie le latin dans sa liturgie ? Parce qu’elle parle non pas au nom de telle ou telle personne, de tel ou groupe de fidèles, mais au nom de toute l’Humanité, de toute l’Histoire. Catholique, elle emploie un idiome universel, elle parle romain. Elle ne s’adresse pas aux hommes, elle s’adresse à Dieu, elle emploie un langage en quelque sorte convenu, contractuel, des mots pénétrés d’une vertu et d’une efficace propre“. (Paul Claudel)
Pour la liturgie, mais aussi pour la théologie ou le droit canon, et en fait pour la connaissance et l’amour de toute la civilisation occidentale, l’étude du latin demeure une nécessité. C’est pourquoi la Fraternité Saint-Pierre vous propose cet été deux stages, organisés dans une abbaye de la République tchèque.

Portland archdiocese: Coronavirus or no, Communion can be received on the tongue

“We consulted with two physicians regarding this issue, one of which is a specialist in immunology for the State of Oregon. They agreed that done properly the reception of Holy Communion on the tongue or in the hand pose a more or less equal risk,” the archdiocese’s office of divine worship wrote March 2.

“The risk of touching the tongue and passing the saliva on to others is obviously a danger however the chance of touching someone’s hand is equally probable and one’s hands have a greater exposure to germs.”

Archbishop forbids Communion in the hand

The Archbishop of Kampala has forbidden receiving Holy Communion in the hand.
In a decree issued on Saturday, 1 February 2020, Archbishop Cyprian Kizito Lwanga wrote: “It is forbidden to distribute or to receive Holy Communion in the hands. Mother Church enjoins us to hold the Most Holy Eucharist in the highest honor (Can. 898). Due to many reported instances of dishonoring the Eucharist that have been associated with reception of the Eucharist in the hands, it is fitting to return to the more reverent method of receiving the Eucharist on the tongue.”

Gregorian Chant: Perfect Music for the Sacred Liturgy

…The Second Vatican Council says that chant is a necessary or integral part of the solemn liturgy; it gives a nobler form to the celebration of the liturgy; and above all, it is specially suited to the Roman Rite and deserves the foremost place within it. When performed in an edifying manner, chant in and of itself “accords with the spirit of the liturgical action,” which cannot be assumed for any other type of music.
