This is the third week , since the new Roman Missal was introduced. Surprisingly, it wasn’t as tough as this Writer thought it was.. She is actually adapting quite well to the changes , huge thanks to the power point guide during mass. Incline neck (neck bow) and full bow (from the waist) are getting more synergised- the tangled mass of mixed up nods, bows and confusion plus the annoyance of self lacking were no more. Even the explanations to the changes sounded more interesting and has become a source of good knowledge. Guess, It was just the mindset thing. Unclogged and pour in some flexibility and the engine purrs on smoothly. The faster we adopt, the better we learn and the earlier, it blends into routine.
Of course it tickles the resistance into submission, knowing that priests have more learning to do than lay people. So if we stumble over the terms and acts of reverence, they stumble as well -initially of course. Priests are as much humans as we are but then, they have a way of getting up faster than we lay people. They need to, because they are shepherds and it is their conviction to teach and lead .
Strive on ! March on , Christian soldiers of God!
