Over the centuries, the Church - guided by the Holy Ghost - has adorned the Mass with holy prayers, hymns, lessons, and ceremonies. The Church has enveloped the celebration of this adorable Sacrifice in a mystic veil in order to fill the faithful with religious awe and profound reverence, urging them to earnest pious contemplation and meditation. Pope Innocent I (~400 AD) affirms that the Roman liturgy comes from St. Peter and all must observe this rite. We do not know how this grave attack upon the Mass - upon the Catholic Faith, upon Christ Himself - will play out, but we can make reparation to the best of our ability. Approach the Mass as a penitent, offer yourself with Christ, and make a fervent thanksgiving. Merit special graces and greater glory in Heaven by gazing upon Christ during His Holy Sacrifice with greater love and devotion.
