So, our priest’s homily today was the typical about learning to carry your cross in Christian love. Up comes time to pray the our Father. He introduces it as follows.

“Now, let us join together in loving sorrow as we pray… I mean, loving joy as we pray as our Savior taught us.”

The congregation laughed quite rigorously.

Okay, this didn’t happen this week (or, um…year) but this is regarding the “our Father” as well.

The priest “introduced” it by saying “it seems to have been one of His (Jesus’) favorite prayers.” :confused:

:nope: The Mass should just not be ad libbed.
 
Years ago I think I had one of the biggest flubs ever to grace a pulpit (back in my pre-Catholic days). I was going on about the how in Christ there are no differences between Jews and Gentiles as well as talk about the Judahizers. I do not remember a lot, but I remember stating that the Jews looked down on uncircumsized Genitals. I think about half the people heard. The half that was falling asleep probably were wondering why I was turning beet red.
 
This past weekend our priest said “Pope John P…Benedict XVI…”

Anyone else’s priest still getting the popes confused?

In Christ,
Nancy 🙂

My priests aren’t, but I still am!

Actually, one time I was at mass being said at my dorm at University of Portland. It came time for the offeratory after the prayers of the faithful, and the priests raised the host saying, “This is the lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world… wait. Hold on. Lets try that over again.”

Meanwhile, my roomate next to me had muttered, “No it isn’t.”

This happened for a couple of weeks, and each time I felt a lump in my throat. :crying:

I am too!! When I get back from communion and am praying I pray for the pope, bishops and all clergy to faithfully guide His Church to all truth. Well, I’m having a heck of a time making the transition from Pope John Paul to Pope Benedict. It will be slow in coming because I still want to say the name of my old bishop and I moved 2 years ago. 🙂

Old habits die hard!

In Christ,
Nancy 🙂
 
Dear friends

This was over 15 years ago but it’s still a Mass mess up …I was 16 years old and reading a bidding prayer for the School Mass , it was about embracing our crosses and I read out instead of saying Daily Cross ‘so, let us take up our Craily Doss’ (doss in the UK means to be a ‘bum’ as you say in the USA, to lay about and do nothing) no-one laughed outloud, no-one dare in Church, but shoulders were shaking and faces were red everywhere from the effort of not laughing.

I have never lived that down, ever… and friends still now 15 years or more on still rib me for that asking me ‘Are you still having your daily doss?’…with friends like these who needs enemies 😃

God Bless you and much love and peace to you

now it is finally taking effect, that most of the priests that I know ( 3 different parish’s) are starting to break a 26 year habit of POPE JOHN PAUL II & saying BENEDICT IX 👍 , but for interest a visiting priest said POPE CLEMENT :bigyikes: at 1 of the daily masses
 
I suppose the WEIRDEST thing that ever happened at mass was about 15 years ago for me.

Our parish had just installed a new sound system. The priest now had a portable mic that sent out over radio waves. Towards the end of communion, the church speakers suddenly started playing a guy sending out over CB radio.

It was darn strange. We were all looking at the speakers thinking, “What the?”

Oh my gosh, we had the same thing happen on our speakers once. It started picking up different radio signals and then a broadcast from a very vibrant fire and brimstone AME church down the street and the sermon was ROCKIN’. It was so funny.

we also got some of those new cordless mics for the priests. It took a while for a few older ones to realize we could hear everything they said and did even while out of sight.One old priest made a very unkind remark about the deacon. OOOPS
 
Some of our priests are still saying John Paul instead of Benedict. I miss him… Not that I don’t like Benedict, but 26 years is hard to get over 😦
 
I don’t know if this qualifies as a “messup”, but it was pretty funny – it happened in the church in my old town, at daily Mass. It was hot outside, so the doors of the church were left open, and a hornet had flown in, and was hanging around the chalice. Father Bob picked up a purificator, apparently with the intent of using it to kill the hornet. The timing was impeccable:

“Let us offer one another a sign of Christ’s peace.”

WHAM!!!
