All Western Liturgies

The Novus Ordo and the Ordinary Form are the same.

No.

The Novus Ordo was the initial form of the current Ordinary Form.

The current version is simply the “Ordinary Form.”

Novus Ordo is no longe used, as, well, it’s no longer new.

Today, the term is used most often in a derogatory manner—but that’s a separate issue.

I’m under same impression Michael is, because terms “Novus Ordo”, “Ordinary Form of Latin Rite”, “Mass of Paul VI” are all interchangeable. I do have trouble with how to refer to ad orientem Vatican 2 mass celebrated with incense (and perhaps parts of Latin)- simply calling it NO or OF gives people idea that it’s versus populum no-incense Mass of today’s world.

I’m going to inquire because this is how the Sunday daytime services are performed at my parish inclusive of a choir singing traditional songs. The evening Mass has more Latin but no incense or choir. I love both but am not sure how to describe them. I find them both extremely reverent so I would love to be able to accurately describe them. I’ve been to many other non-EF Masses and ours is liturgically different and my preference. The only other Mass I’ve experienced that was similar was at the Basilica in Baltimore.

Hm, this is first time I see this information, perhaps officially that’s the case but people generally don’t hold to that.

 

[OrbisNonSufficit]

I’d love to attend such Mass but not only do I feel like our Priest would not approve (great guy but not into ad orientem), our kinda young Church has Tabernacle on the side and no High Altar so I doubt it’s even possible.

Where there is a will there is a way.

 

[OrbisNonSufficit]

Oh I certainly hope so, buy as of now I have not heard of such Mass celebrated in either mine country or city where I study. I hope in time I’ll travel somewhere where it’s celebrated or someone starts to celebrate it here.

Most religious orders had their own rite, however, are they still celebrated today?

The Benedictines celebrate the Mass (EF or OF) according to the Roman rite but with Benedictine calendar. However their breviary is very different and is still used today, as well as a couple of new post-Conciliar schémas on one or two week schedules.
