We save the palm leaf all year and return it to be burned, and that is where the ashes come from for the forehead. People laid palms to cover Jesus's path as he arrived in Jerusalem (Palm Sunday), just days before he was crucified (Good Friday). Because the palms have been blessed by a priest, instead of throwing them out, they are saved until the next year to create ashes for Ash Wednesday. Sacramentals like the blessed palm leaf must either be buried or returned to be burned. Catholic priests started putting ashes on foreheads every Ash Wednesday at least as early as the 8th century, when the practice can be found in the Gregorian Sacramentary (a book with directives for the liturgy). That’s simply the earliest recorded date for doing so—it’s likely a much earlier tradition. Fr. Curtis, FSSP, said that only the catechumens received ashes in the beginning, but already-baptized Catholics liked the practice and petitioned the hierarchy. One side of the church had a perfect cross on the forehead. Fr. Schwab, FSSP, has a talent for dusting. When the priest marks the sign of the cross on your forehead, he says... Latin root for pulverize is pulvis, dust.

countertenor highest male register Psalm 126 Douay-Rheims https://www.drbo.org/chapter/21126.htm#:~:text=1%20Unless%20the%20Lord%20build,eat%20the%20bread%20of%20sorrow. “Even after his voice changed at age 13, Scholl continued to sing as a countertenor…In an interview with iclassics.com, Scholl said, ‘Singing is just very natural; I’ve always done it, every day, and I’ve always enjoyed it.’” -Encyclopedia.com Some tenors can reach this register with practice, but it remains fairly hard to do. I’ve heard Andreas sing at a lower register, he says baritone, but it sounds tenor. The foot of the altar is the foot of the cross. I post primarily for the video thumbnail so that all Catholics can see Padre Pio (Father Pius) saying the Latin Mass and the Prayers at the Foot of Altar, which is where Mass begins. The text overlay is a word-for-word reproduction of the Prayers. The slashers of the 1960s removed all of this. When I heard, “I will go to the altar of God: to God Who giveth joy to my youth,” memories came rushing forth, and this occurred before I rediscovered the Latin Mass in 2020. I will never return to that old Mass, the one called the New Order. Ha-ha. It isn’t. The first Confiteor is said by the priest. The second is said by the altar boy(s). S is an abbreviation for the Latin servo, which means I serve; thus, it is the altar boy part.
Farya Faraji is the creator. He has the assistance of Luke Ranieri. Luke’s YT channel is called polýMATHY. According to Farya, the instruments used are the Greco-Roman lyre, aulos, pan flute, bagpipe, frame drum, and tambourine, all of the period.
I subscribe to his channel and Ranieri’s. Theirs is classical pronunciation. Catamite has either of two meanings, neither praiseworthy. A fellow from Discord Nicklas ToryShire sent me the video on Aquinas.
Sung at St. Willibrord. Willibrord, Bishop of Utrecht, died in 739. Mozart died in 1791. Both were fluent in Latin. Laudate Dominum omnes gentes Laudate eum, omnes populi Quoniam confirmata est Super nos misericordia eius Et veritas, veritas Domini manet, manet in aeternum Gloria Patri et Filio Et Spiritui Sancto Sicut erat in principio Et nunc, et semper Et in saecula saeculorum Amen, Amen, Amen Praise the Lord, all ye nations, praise him, all ye peoples. For his loving mercy has been bestowed upon us, and the truth of the Lord endures for eternity. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. After Vatican II, Utrecht wanted to sell and demolish the Gothic revival church built in the years 1875-1877. Lay people and Father Winand Kotte (Assumptionists) bought the building and kept the interior intact. The SSPX offers the Latin Mass every Sunday at 5 pm, in a country where Catholicism is practically dead. Between 2008 and 2011 the number of parishes went from 326 to 48. Attendance at Sunday Mass was 13% in 2021 and, following COVID, is now 2.5%. And still the cardinal there thinks the drop has nothing to do with Vatican II. In the real world, he would get the boot. Septuagesima is the ninth Sunday before Easter, the third before Lent, known among the Greeks as “Sunday of the Prodigal” from the Gospel, Luke 15, which they read on this day, also called Dominica Circumdederunt by the Latins, from the first word of the Introit of the Mass. Circumdedérunt is a verb meaning, “surround”, and is in the Introit for yesterday, Sunday: Circumdedérunt me gémitus mortis... The groans of death surround me... The line is the beginning of Psalm 17, and a personification. A psalm is said by the priest as he approaches the altar. Father Schwab pointed out that the Greeks of Corinth knew all about the Olympic games. Paul was in the city for four weeks, and the Epistle was a letter sent to Catholics after the citizenry ejected him.
Artifact is a combination of two Latin words, arte, meaning “by skill,” and facere, meaning “to make.” Usually, the word is used to describe something crafted and used for a particular purpose during an earlier time.
“Earlier this month, newly revised regulations surrounding the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (Nagpra) went into effect, mandating that museums and other institutions obtain consent from tribes in order to showcase or research human remains or cultural items. The new guidelines also give institutions five years to prepare all human remains and related funerary objects for repatriation while giving more authority to tribes throughout the process.” -The Guardian (British daily) The American Museum of Natural History in New York is taking steps to comply with recently updated federal regulations under Biden regarding the display of American Indian artifacts. -Conservative Institute (non-profit) The museum is closing two halls. Nativist activists in DC are at it again. This, while real problems go unaddressed. I would be honored if a family artifact, had I one, were in a museum, and I’m sure American Indians are. The first Amerindians are postulated to have come from Asia over the Bering land bridge between 30,000–12,000 years ago based on cultural, morphological, and genetic similarities between American and Asian populations. -National Institutes of Health The Hatch Act, 5 U.S.C. §§ 7321-7326, restricts certain federal employees from involvement in partisan political activity. Partisan political activity is any activity directed toward the success or failure of a partisan candidate, political party, or partisan political group. Justice Department https://www.justice.gov/jmd/political-activities
Upon employment, employees are given a pamphlet explaining what are restricted activities. Moreover, ignorance of the law is not a defense. In law, ignorantia juris non excusat (ignorance of the law excuses not), or ignorantia legis neminem excusat (ignorance of the law excuses no one), is a legal principle holding that a person who is unaware of a law may not escape liability for violating that law merely by being unaware of its content. I post because certain employees in favor of Biden and against Trump in 2020 came under scrutiny for engaging in restricted activities. About 2 1/2 hours from Prague is the Cistercian monastery at Vyšší Brod, and the best place for school. The ideal plan would be reordering every diocese and its schools, and independent Catholic schools, around a monastery as the center. Did you know of two inventions, the interim Mass (1967) followed by the new Mass (1969)? Oremus: let us reverse and renew our direction. Altovadum: ford, high or above If God is calling you to monastic life, say, "Yes," even if you can't sing. I'm told you learn.

AMDG HIDDEN God, devoutly I adore Thee, truly present underneath these veils:
all my heart subdues itself before Thee, since it all before Thee faints and fails. Not to sight, or taste, or touch be credit hearing only do we trust secure; I believe, for God the Son has said it- Word of truth that ever shall endure. On the cross was veiled Thy Godhead's splendor, here Thy manhood lies hidden too; unto both alike my faith I render, and, as sued the contrite thief, I sue. Though I look not on Thy wounds with Thomas, Thee, my Lord, and Thee, my God, I call: make me more and more believe Thy promise, hope in Thee, and love Thee over all. O memorial of my Savior dying, Living Bread, that gives life to man; make my soul, its life from Thee supplying, taste Thy sweetness, as on earth it can. Deign, O Jesus, Pelican of heaven, me, a sinner, in Thy Blood to lave, to a single drop of which is given all the world from all its sin to save. Contemplating, Lord, Thy hidden presence, grant me what I thirst for and implore, in the revelation of Thy essence to behold Thy glory evermore. Amen. All this translating is the result of the Tower of Babel, which makes ever more amazing that the Apostles could communicate to everyone. That is the meaning of 'speaking in tongues', not shaking, hissing, and rolling. Thanks. Television series: Rome Power & Glory: Grasp of Empire
“Killing an Auxilary? That’s a strangling. Killing a Legionary? That’s a butchering. Killing an Auquilifer and almost causing the eagle standard to hit the ground? That’s a crucifixion.” -YT commenter AD 70 Scuta is the plural of the Latin word scutum and means shields. Is the USA Rome, or not? Well? The New Jerusalem? China Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Awards (MMXXIII) Ball of Pu for him (plutonium) I’m going to sneak in a little Latin, my winner of the most beautiful language, to make this post worthwhile. Spes means hope, and that brings peace, and see how spes is like peace? Say it. Only the vowel sound changes from short e to long e. In German, Holy Ghost is Heiligen Geist. So, holy derives from heiligen, not sanctum. Therefore, it is inconsistent to pair holy with spirit, and that could persuade English speakers to recite the Creed in Latin for it being the more concise and poetic original language.
Vincit qui se vincit. He conquers who conquers himself. The XIV reasons to learn Latin

Aut cum scuto aut in scuto.
Either with a shield or on a shield. (i.e. don’t give up. -Sparta) Happy New Year! Start off on the right foot. Buy the Father Lasance Roman Missal 1962. Your English will improve by learning Latin, and you won’t even need a Bible. The Missal incorporates the Douay-Rheims, the first Bible in English. The Church decided which parts of the Catholic Book should go into the daily Mass. At the end of 2024, you will send an email thanking me for your retrofit. Deus vult! The Missal is a faithful reprint of the 1945 edition with two Nihil Obstats (nothing contrary to the Catholic faith, doctrines, and morals) and two Imprimaturs (“Let it be printed.”), the first set in 1935 and the second set in 1945, artwork by the Benziger Brothers, 1,852 pages, gold-trimmed. Though a Missal is not absolutely necessary, you will value the translations if you list poetic or even dramatic.
In the words ignominy, ignoble, and ignore, the prefix ig- means not. Ignorance and its related forms come from the Latin verb ignorare, “not to know.”
Ignorare active indicative Singular Plural First person ignoro ignoramus Second person ignoras ignoratis Third person ignorat ignorant What Is It that makes the Latin Language so pure & beautiful? “With minor exceptions, Latin pronunciation is as straightforward as is possible. There are precisely five key vowels and predictable consonant sounds that once learned can be replicated across the near entirety of the language. “English, for example, is not like this at all; we are rife with different rules and applications of those rules, because of our strange but endearing development as a language, which was a complicated process of mixing over the centuries. … “But it’s a good starting point for consideration that, in the providence of God’s overarching, mysterious sovereignty and His absolute knowing of beauty’s value for the souls He created, He saw fit to allow such a pure language to develop in precisely the right moment for the birth of the Church.” https://cassiaandmyrrh.com/on-the-beautiful-purity-of-the-latin-language/ The omnipresence of letters m and n, the humming letters, and qu, the beautiful kw sound, make the language most melodious.

Incubus Ante Natalem The Nightmare Before Christmas This is a 1993 American stop-motion animated musical directed by Henry Selick and produced/conceived by Tim Burton. Is the film a Halloween story or a Christmas story? I think it is a rare-for-Hollywood allegory—Resurrection. Creator and Chief, Scorpio Martianus, aka Luke Amadeus Ranieri, classical Latin and Greek whizbang, funny and poetic.
Betcha didn’t know. The origin of doctor is the Latin word for teacher, itself from the verb, docēre, meaning “to teach.” In English, it originally referred to a small group of theologians who had approval from the Church to speak on religious matters, later expanding to include academic (PhD) and medical professionals (MD). Rod of Asclepius. He was son of Apollo, physician, and a deity associated with the healing and medicinal arts in Greek mythology. Description: Photographed on the deck of his ship, circa 1939. Captain Kidd has inscribed the original print: To my able gunnery officer and friend Commander Abercrombie. Sincerely, Isaac Campbell Kidd. Lieutenant Commander Laurence A.

You know that the motto of the Marines is "Semper Fidelis—Always Faithful", but did you know that the motto of Space Force is "Semper Supra—Always Above"? United States Air Force Senior Airman Daniel Sanchez proposed "Semper Supra" both because of ease of pronunciation and alliteration of the Latin phrase and English translation. Here is the Latin Mass from Melbourne, if you can't attend locally. Father Dillon is a courageous parish priest facing ad orientem and massive opposition to the Mass of the Ages. Only the wicked man thinks the TLM was abolished. Please hit like on YT. “In Melbourne in his fine church of St. Philip’s, Blackburn North, I met a Kiwi refugee, Fr Nicholas Dillon, who told me our late lamented Fr Brian Buenger is merely the tip of a clerical iceberg of orthodox seminarians and priests frozen out of their homeland [New Zealand] by what we agreed is, in essence, a lack of Eucharistic faith.
“Fr Dillon is young, intelligent, a celebrated organist—and orthodox, like at least ten others he could name who have fled overseas to the FSSP (Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter), Opus Dei, and the Legion of Christ.” https://juliadufresne.blogspot.com/2019/07/to-comment-please-open-your-gmail_31.html Domine, non sum dignus... Lord, I am not worthy... When Mass begins, the priest (P) and altar boys (R) pray Psalm 42 at the foot of the altar (the cross), now made more poignant by Fiducia supplicans (Supplicating Trust). Finding the English words in the Latin is easy. Example: érue me...deliver me. Similar to extricate. Usage: deliver and extricate perform the same action: if you are extricated from your enemies, you are delivered from them. Yes, I really dig Latin. If you think Latin has not improved my English, you are an imbecile.
