Traditional Latin Catholic Mass: Easter Sunday

Traditional Latin Mass filmed on Easter Sunday in 1941 at Our Lady of Sorrows church in Chicago. The film presents the ceremonies of the Missa Solemnis or Solemn High Mass in full detail with narration by then-Mgr. Fulton J. Sheen. Celebrated by Rev. J. R. Keane of the Order of Servites (hence the white habits and cowls), the ceremonies are accompanied by a full polyphonic choir, orchestra, and fifty Gregorian Chanters.

The attention to detail in the ceremonies is impressive. Notice, for example, how the servers and ministers always take great care to move in order. Notice too that the servers are all almost identical in height. The Ordinary of the Mass, composed by Rev. Edwin V. Hoover, while pleasant in places, is very much a reflection of its time. The Proper on the other hand is timeless and sung admirably by a healthy throng of Seminarians from Mundelein, Illinois.

Unfortunately due to size restrictions at Youtube around 20 mins have been cut from the original, however, I hope to upload a full version somewhere soon. In addition to the cuts I have added new captions and edited the opening credits which had deteriorated in the original. Other than this the film remains largely unchanged. Apologies for the error in the captions for the two parts of the Mass (software). The first part is of couse the Mass of the Catechumens, the second is the Mass of the Faithful.

I'll give you a hint:

St. Ignatius of Antioch, Epistle to the Smyrnaeans, [speaking of Heretics] Chapter 7, 110 A.D.- “They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they confess not the Eucharist to be the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, which suffered for our sins, and which the Father, of His goodness, raised up again.”

[Nicholas Ciarlo]

I have found that since the time of Pope John Paul II, we have only gotten closer to this beautiful form of mass. He wrote about it giving permission for it to be practiced, and so did Benedict XVI to an even greater extent. I hope and pray that the new pope will revert back to the ways of the church before Vatican II, making the rite of mass in a universal language, and bringing back the reverent chants that once rang through churches around the world.

All - The vatican-2 heretic cult (founded in 1965 at the Vatican) *cannot possibly be* the Catholic Church … since it enforces the opposite, and the opposite of the Catholic Dogma (the actual Catholic Faith)

The founding documents of the vatican-2 heresy … the “v-2 council” documents … have well over 200 heresies AGAINST Dogma

Section 12 > Anti-Christ vatican-2 heresies (50 listed)

Sections 13 and 13.1 > Photographic *proof* of heresy at the Vatican

Continuing …

Section 13.2 > Catholic Dogma on automatic excommunication ... for physical participation in a heretic cult such as the vatican-2 cult

Section 19.1 > Dogma on Abjuration for re-entering Christianity (the Catholic Church) … Formal Abjuration also provided here

Section 13.3 > Matt 16:18, Gates of Hell scripture, defined at four (4) Councils ... is not about the Papacy

Section 10.2 > Returning to state of grace, when there’s no Confession, like now

This is my first comment on Youtube! I wanted my first comment to be on this beautiful video! It's Catholic, it's traditional, and it's also in Chicago (my hometown). I am a man in my early twenties that thirsts so much for the Sacred Tradition of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass!
