[pfpnewhope]

Where are the people?



[rockiesguy]

What a mess this whole function. No direction at all and by the way who are the reformed catholic church anyway???

[eugenio1876]

Someone should teach them how to "do" the procession if they want traditional Catholic worship. Thurifer, then crucifer. Only the presiding bishop or diocesean ordinary walks with the crozier, and I am pretty sure mitres are removed for the veneration of the altar. If it is a synod or not, the non-ordained are usually present in some capacity. If it is an ordination there must be lay people present to give the peoples' acclamation that the candidate is worthy.

That crucifer is flying at the start of the procession. Zooooom

[danielfrancesxavier]

haha all are welcome but i see no lay people

[Matteo21ish]

What is the name of that church and where is it located?

[leofalcon]

It is a Synod, therefore the lack lay people.

[FreddySilva]

The REformed Catholic Church is a church with no people, the pews were empty of lay people and full of Clergy

[BassPedal2009]

its seems like theres alot of bishops

[BassPedal2009]

the reformed catholic church is a catholic church while has not ties with rome. It practices catholic tradition. There bishops are also referred to as wondering because they aren't really in charge of a diocese because it is not held together by a governing body like the roman catholic church.

[BassPedal2009]

nicely done but played wayyyy to slow

[flyguy380]

Does this church perform same-sex marriages, where legal?

[osalutaris]

yes

[flyguy380]

Awesome, I am going to start attending one of these churches when I move closer to one next year. Because of this, and I feel that the Catholic Church is returning to its older, more Conservative ways. In my diocese, they forced all women who were serving as pastoral coordinators to resign, even though we had had ours, who is a nun, for 20 years. They also forced out our Priest of 10 years, who everyone loves (he is very liberal) and replaced him with a MARRIED priest!

[dacatholicbandorgan]

You mean an Anglican revert priest?
