Wednesday, June 10, 2020 – Today is going to be very short and blessedly not confusing. However, this section also has some choices. Thankfully they are not confusing. This is the final part of the Novus Ordo. For whatever reason, this part has been given its own section in the USCCB outline. I can only Read More

Day 85 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part XVI)
Tuesday, June 9, 2020 – Today we are going to focus on just the Communion part of the Liturgy of the Eucharist. It is fairly similar to the Communion part of the Mass of the Faithful. Unfortunately, this is where we see a lot of the prayers from the Traditional Latin Mass left out. Anyhow, Read More
Day 84 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part XV)
Monday, June 8, 2020 – Yesterday we started talking about the Liturgy of the Eucharist in the Novus Ordo and saw that there was a lot missing in the New Mass vs. the Traditional Latin Mass in terms of the prayers said over the gifts. Today we continue with the Liturgy of the Eucharist: the Read More
Day 83 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part XIV)
Sunday, June 7, 2020 – While much of yesterday’s post was extremely confusing, today is going to be a little less so…except where it isn’t. Okay, so today is going to be confusing too. The downside of how the USCCB has divided the Novus Ordo (NO) is that their outline leaves a lot of “stuff” Read More
Day 82 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part XIII)
Saturday, June 6, 2020 – Today we are continuing on with our walk through of the Novus Ordo (NO). Yesterday we covered the Introductory Rites, now we are going to cover the Liturgy of the Word. This section can be compared to the “Instruction” part of the Mass of Catechumens in the Traditional Latin Mass. Read More
Day 81 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part XII)
Friday, June 5, 2020 – Over the last week or so we covered the TLM. Today we are going to begin digging into the Novus Ordo, also known as the Mass of Paul VI. Again, this will be a brief outline. I will follow the outline the USCCB uses in order to maintain some consistency Read More
Day 80 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part XI)
Thursday, June 4, 2020 – Again, another day of last-minute TLM questions. I promise, however, that these are leading up to the new Mass. You can consider them “cross-over” questions, if you will, because they can be applied to either the old or the new. Why does the Priest face away from us? The Priest Read More
Day 79 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part X)
Wednesday, June 3, 2020 – Today (and tomorrow) we are going to answer some last-minute questions I have received over the years on the Traditional Latin Mass and a few “traditional” minded things surrounding the “old” Mass. A few may have already been answered in previous posts, so I apologize if I repeat…repeat…repeat myself. Bonus Read More
Day 78 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part IX)
Tuesday, June 2, 2020 – Way back when we coaxed our favorite Priest into letting us have a TLM Low Mass, I put together a one sheet of basic information. On the front side it has a pictorial walk-thru of the Low Mass with all the actions (“stuff”) that the lay people do during the Read More
Day 77 – Mrs. Flusche’s Super Basic Primer on the Mass (Part VIII)
Monday, June 1, 2020 – Brand new month, same old Mass! Also, we are eleven (11!!) weeks down. Whew! Let’s continue with the last part of the Mass of the Faithful. Fair warning: today’s post is going to be a looooong one! The Mass of the Faithful The Communion: The third part of the Mass Read More
