Poorly Celebrated Masses Lead to a Weak Faith

December 28, 2012

Vatican officials say that faith is weakened when Masses are not reverent and are not celebrated according to the approved rubrics.

Father Bux said that too many modern Catholics think the Mass is something that the priest and the congregation do together when, in fact, it is something that Jesus does.

"If you go to a Mass in one place and then go to Mass in another, you will not find the same Mass. This means that it is not the Mass of the Catholic Church, which people have a right to, but it is just the Mass of this parish or that priest," he said.
