traditional mass

[YoungTradCath]

As you become more and more familiar with the EF and the EF calendar, you should be able to recognize certain gospels, such as the Transfiguration, the Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard, etc., from certain key Latin words and phrases to where you don’t need to digest every word or syllable. Since the EF operates on a 1-yr cycle, you could even learn to associate every Sunday with a particular gospel. Just saying.

This is the strongest aspect of the EF lectionary. (bolded)

It makes it sort of mystical.

Are you saying that “Latin” is pleasing to God…or am I missing you on this one YoungTradCath?

No, I am saying that there is more to the readings than simply being able to recognize the words printed/said/sung.

Yes, I know your writing YougTradCath and what I thought you had said was uncharacteristic of your thinking…I totally agree with your clarification and my apologies for misreading what you were trying to say…
