GodsThespianChic Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 So I went to XLT on what is now yesterday, since it's 2:45 in the morning. We had mass and there were 14 or 15 priests, one being a bishop, participating in mass and present during the transubstantiation. I was like dude! This is amesome! An I was thinking...would it be like a super-potent Jesus presence in the Eucharist?! Lol, just kidding, but it was a funny thought had during mass. And adoration...wow. it was amesome!!! There is nothing cooler than seeing Mark Hart speak, talking to Fr. J, having mass, AND adoration all in the same night!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petrus Posted January 4, 2004 Share Posted January 4, 2004 According to documents from after Vatican two council, the priest is Jesus, somehow, I don't know I was watching EWTN, and I was thinking about what he said, and wthat the documetns said, and my Head hurt! By virtue of sacramental consecration, the ordained priest does not simply become a functionary. This consecration does not set him apart to simply perform certain tasks in the Church. No, by virtue of the sacramental consecration which the priest receives, he is ontologically changed. He is configured to the Person of Jesus Christ, Head and Shepherd, in a new way in his very being. "The relation of the priest to Jesus Christ, and in him to his Church, is found in the very being of the priest by virtue of his sacramental consecration/anointing and in his activity, that is, in his mission and ministry." Just as at Baptism and Confirmation the Christian is sacramentally marked on the soul, so is the man who is ordained a priest marked sacramentally and configured to Christ the Priest. http://www.cfpeople.org/SeminarianWritings/Sem033.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catholicteen Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 I know what you mean! I LOVE Masses with tons of priests. Every summer my archdiocese has something called the Eucharistic Conference- big all-day event with amesome speakers and stuff. I got to lector at the closing Mass, and many of the priests from the archdiocese were concelebrating. I remember standing at the ambo looking out on 20,000 Atlanta Catholics with two bishops behind me and over 50 priests and countless seminarians and deacons beside me and going wow, how cool is this? . Ok, there's my somewhat random thought for today. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_rev Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Our church never does anything cool!!! I went to a conference last year, I was the only youth, I think I wanna go again!
