For the longest time my Parish Center (Sheil) didn't kneel at the consecration, he wanted people to kneel and when people did, he was glad to see it. Sounds like a very mix-bag.

I know what you mean about "mix-bag." When the GIRM was implemented in our diocese in January, our somewhat left leaning parish has not, as of this day, implemented standing during the communion. They (the parishoners) continue to kneel, throughout the consecration and communion, which I think is great.

Our parish members (in talking with them) seem to be split down the middle on all things traditional, conservative, or liberal. It's an interesting mix, to say the least.

Thanks for your imput!

The GIRM calls for kneeling, not standing, during distribution of the Eucharist. So, your parish IS implementing the GIRM.
