Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe.
-Hebrews 12:28
Opening the treasury of the Church's patrimony, St. Mary's Parish has been celebrating Daily Masses "ad orientem." In choosing to pray the way it has always been, the Parish joins united as one to go "towards the east or to the rising sun." One could say, "towards the risen Son." Thus, rather than Father's back being towards the people, he actually joins them in going to and speaking to God - Who is truly present in the Tabernacle.
Of course, Father also faces the people when speaking with them. Thus, neither God, who is greater than us, nor the people are slighted. Rather each person is addressed properly, without rude slight to either. This helps us keep the focus on Sacrifice to God and not a show or a “give me” form of Worship.

These rubrics follow the Second Vatican Council's Rubrics as found in: GIRM #2, 124, 146, 154, 157, 158, and 165; cf. 181, 185, 243, 244, 257, 268; and the Order of Mass #1, 23, 24, 28, 29, 127, 132, 133, 139, 140, 141
Go therefore and make Disciples of all nations, Baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the close of the age!
I am the living Bread which came down from Heaven; if anyone eats of this Bread, He will live forever; and the Bread which I shall give for the life of the world is My Flesh.
The Chalice of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the Blood of Christ? The Bread which we break, is it not a participation in the Body of Christ? Because there is one Bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake
of the one Bread.
Are you seeking some personal time with Jesus? Have a decision to make? Longing for greater fulfillment, joy, peace, help with daily duties? Then make a plan to come spend time with Christ. Our Churches are open to accommodate folks coming in at any time to see Jesus.
Jesus promised to refresh all who labor and are burdened (Mt.11:28), and to abide with those who chose to abide with Him (Jn.15:1-11). If we give Him our time, He will give us His Eternity.
Almost every Tuesday St. Mary's hosts Exposition from 4:50pm to 5:50pm. This is where Jesus is placed in a Monstrance upon the Altar, so that we have have some face time with our Blessed Lord. After He is in the Monstrance, there will be a long period of silent personal prayer. Exposition prayer cards are available in the back, next to the Holy Water, so that we can pray the opening and closing rites. Everyone is welcome. Throughout the year, we also have Exposition opportunities in all three Churches. Please follow the bulletin and Mass times section of the site for details.
This is a great time to speak to God from the heart. We can talk to Him like we would our best earthen friend. Then, we get to take an opportunity to silently listen to Him speaking to us. This is also a great time to assist such prayer with the reading of Scripture, the reciting of a Rosary, or a Devotional book. Sometimes, we may just need to sit with Jesus, allowing such a break to refresh the soul.
Jesus is present to us in the Eucharist as He was in the Holy Land (John 6). We have the great privilege to humbly come before Him, Who can supply all good things (Phil.4:19; Phil.4:6). Those who make frequent visits to the Most Blessed Sacrament will experience: increased peace of the soul, clarity of mind, strength in temptation, strength in trial, consolation, firm resolve, and increased awareness of God's presence in the Holy Spirit. Seek His Life and all things will be given to you besides (Mt.6:33).
When you approach the Tabernacle remember that He has been waiting for you for centuries.
