Collect for Pentecost - Extraordinary Form - Ah Hah! COMMUNITY OF CATHOLIC BLOGGERS - May 19, 2013 ... Sacred Liturgy helps me get a lot more out of being there. On Pentecost we find a very familiar prayer in the Mass that ends the "Come Holy Ghost" invocation often said before meetings or retreats. This Collect and Dom Prosper Gueranger's short comments knocked me over. After all the years of reading and saying this prayer, today turned into a "Wow!" experience. A thoughtless dullard woke up. O God, who by the light of the Holy Ghost, didst ...http://communityofcatholicbloggers.blogspot.com/2013/05/collect-for-pentecost-extraordinary.html

It is not merely a child's piety that acclaims, "Jesus lives in me!" It is an act of faith. That faith directs us outward, out from the inner turmoil, fears, and self-centeredness that even a sincere penitent can find herself or himself caught up with. I believe the Lord is calling us all–not just the disciples of the upper room, and not just the clergy–to spread the presence of Christ and ...http://catholicsensibility.wordpress.com/2013/04/06/reconciliation-lectionary-john-2019-23/

While it would probably be a tad oversimplified to portray this conclave as Italy vs. the world, it does on some level appear to be shaping up to be a showdown between the curial cardinals and all the rest. Some have suggested this is already playing out in the tension between the "Vatican-based cardinals" who "want to get everything over with quickly" and ...http://vox-nova.com/2013/03/11/cardinal-virtues/

In reading this, however, I do feel sympathy for the younger priest who is about to or has already "fallen below the standards expected of [him] as a priest."

One aspect of the recent retranslation of the Mass into English was to provide memorable and worthy versions of the original Latin collects and so forth.
