@Vitus_osst Yes - it *may* be said; it is no longer “always said”

@Liturgy I have attended some orientations recently.. in which it was said

Who was Melchizedek? And why do they always say during a Priest ordination "you are a priest in the order of melchizedek" Do you want to know?

@eebie4 RE: The Second Coming / Return to Office (RTO) Initiative "We are transitioning to a permanent remote-heaven model. The state of Earth does not align with our current corporate culture. Let's circle back in another millennium."

@Liturgy No wonder the 'rapture' keeps getting delayed.... He doesn't want to go back to the office! I mean, looking at the state of the world. Would you?

@liambeadle @2D0XPS I’m sure you find logomachy enjoyable and useful, but I don’t - compare it to your letters of baptism

Having spent most of the morning searching for the most important document of my life, it’s a shame that actually (seal aside) it looks very boring.

The dangers of literalism!

Thank you, Your Holiness @Pontifex, for this special message to Christians around the world for Thy Kingdom Come 2026. Ascension reminds us that Jesus reigns, and that through the Holy Spirit, his life continues in us. Our world is longing for hope, peace and renewal. As we journey from Ascension to Pentecost, let us pray together for more people to know Jesus Christ - and the fullness of life we find in him.

@GordWaldie TLDR? That's what I wrote.

@Liturgy Does it really matter?

Should the unordained raise hands during the “Our Father”? liturgy.co.nz/to-orans-or-no…

@miriam_farish @Jolz_Aust Spīritum superbiae habes.

@Liturgy @Jolz_Aust This is a Catholic discussion

This can’t be legit 🤦🏼‍♀️

Commemorating the Ascension: liturgy.co.nz/ascension-2026 Grant, we pray, O God, that we, who believe your only-begotten One, our redeemer, ascended this day to heaven, may also in heart and mind there continually dwell; through Jesus Christ, who is alive with you, in the unity of...

@Jolz_Aust @miriam_farish Actually- power is in God; there’s no magic prayer

@miriam_farish No medal itself has power. Power is in the prayer.

@AndrewOlding @kimberlycaritas My response: liturgy.co.nz/to-orans-or-no…

@kimberlycaritas I've got an interesting one for you. I realize this is not the Latin Rite, but I still thought it was interesting when I saw this. The Liturgy Instructions for the Maronite Divine Liturgy (Fully Catholic) instructs us to raise our hands for the Our Father.

I've got two. 1) Holding hands during the Our Father is totally fine, it's just the lifting of hands at the end that's not great. 2) Unless there are legitimate reasons making it difficult for your parish to do so, you should be distributing the precious blood to the laypeople.
