Mass Bloopers

[TradIgnatian]

It was the Solemnity of John the Baptist, so there were two readings. I did the First Reading and Responsorial Psalm well, but totally forgot there was a Second Reading. I told the people to stand for the Gospel Acclamation (the choir started to sing it after what I said) when the altar servers signalled that it was not yet the time. I was so embarrassed, to say the least

I was that altar server. I panicked. Hahaha

My country celebrates midnight masses in anticipation of the Lord’s birth. While preparing the incense outside the sacristy, someone accidentally kicked the thurible and sparks from the coals on the ground were everywhere. Worse, people were passing the area! We helped the people to pass while dealing with the situation

I was also the thurifer at that Mass. Mea culpa! Hahaha
