As I said before in other threads, I’m totally blind, and I thought that it would be impossible for me to follow a TLM, but I was wrong. I’m in the process of learning some Latin, because I’m joining the Latin Mass choir at my parish in January, so I decided this past Sunday to stick around after the Novus Ordo for the TLM. I was pleasantly surprised. I could actually follow most of it, though there are still some parts I don’t understand yet. My main problem right now is knowing when to stand, sit, neal, etc. The best part of the Mass for me was when the priest began chanting the Pater Noster, using the same exact melody as Pope John Paul II used in this YouTube video.

There was a lot of chanting, which I also enjoyed. The serman was also one of the best I’ve ever heard. Now, I’m developing an appreciation for both the NO and the TLM, and I don’t mind staying at church for both rights.
I do have a fiew questions though. Why are the Scripture readings different for the TLM than in the NO? And, is it just me, or is the serman actually longer in the TLM?
