I hope they don’t bring kneeling back. I have a terrible time getting back up!

I saw that video and it reminded me of the time (last geologic age ( -;)that my veil slipped across my face. I had my eyes closed and hadn’t noticed it. The deacon took the paten and brushed the veil aside. I was quite mortified!

Exactly - it's not the kneeling, it's the GETTING BACK UP. You should have seen Steve0113 and me one Good Friday - we were too late to get seats for the Stations, so had to stand in the back. We had to help each other back up after every kneeling. Pitiful.

Actually, if you kneel a little bit daily, it gets easier!

I used to kneel all the time without worrying about it a bit. But when we went to a Tridentine Mass at the Cathedral and they had no kneelers, just cold stone floor, I thought I was going to DIE!
