Happy Second Day of Christmas to you!

Family cooking is the best!
I sent this to my pastor and to the Diocese liturgy guy. I think they’ll get a chuckle.
Et cum spiritu tuo.
And with your spirit.
I sent it to my pastor after I posted it too. LOL!
I am not Catholic, do I miss the humor?
Is this not about the Holy Ghost and the Holy Spirit?
Merry Christmas....again.
That wuz a fun read.
ROFL, Just what I needed after dealing with that dipstick on the other thread about cremation.
What?
No awkward pauses? No jarring verbal conflicts?
Where’s the contrived singing?
Most likely you do miss the humor. We Catholics are struggling with a new English translation of the Mass that went into use the fist week of Advent and that contains some unfamiliar words, but is quite beautiful. To my ear it is much like what we used to say in Latin before Vatican II. Even though I thought it would be easy, I still screw up on the simplest response — “And with your spirit.” I got it half right at Christmas and we’ve been saying it for 5 weeks.
I’m surprised that Msgr. Pope didn’t include some “consubtantial” ingredients! LOL.
It also might be a play on the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
It uses some of the contentious and not so contentious phrases from the new translation of the Roman Missal, which is much closer in accuracy to the original Latin Vulgate.
The Catholic on FR love the new translation. And I think they will like this cookie recipe too.
Yeah. Pretty much.
Imagine someone took all your favorite hymns and insisted they be sung the words with absolute perfect enunciation and changed the ones that were not textbook grammatical....
that’s what just happened to the Mass said in English.
I have enough trouble understanding Lutherans... ;)
Merry Christmas!
No offense to anyone on this thread.
I’m not versed in theology.
That was hilarious to read! Keeping with the spirit of merriment for the season.
Merry Christmas, Salvation!
No problem. It’s a little “inside baseball”.
I know what you mean by “understanding Lutherans”. One time we were seated near a group of ladies who were catching a meal after choir practice. They were talking loud enough so that I couldn’t help but over-hear. It seems that the father of one of them (a widower) had married a widow lady from a different Synod in a different town. Instead of being happy for the old gentlman, the pastor of his home church (which he had helped build)publicly EXCOMMUNICATED him for marrying into a different Synod. Not a different religion. A different Synod.
Don't get me started
