@Joeinblack Plus, as you have to look away from the Ambo or Altar to look at a screen, it literally takes your attention away from what’s happening at Mass. /3

@Joeinblack While they’re an easy and “efficient” way to get people to read/say things, screens don’t foster memorization nor interior spiritual active participation; they’re not “effective” tools for Liturgy. /2

No screens in Church. We need to provide God‘s people with a sacred place where they are free of the tyranny of the screen. I know that’s not the main issue here, but perhaps this is another perfect example of why that policy works in our favor. As regard to the main issue, If a bishop is so distrustful of his own priests, then he has a problem. Priests often see themselves simply as tools to be used, not brothers to be entrusted and this is a perfect example.

Update from Charlotte: Every pastor has been emailed a video clip from Bishop Martin which MUST be shown at all Masses this weekend. It is believed that in the video he will share his “pastoral vision” for the diocese. In an unusual move, a first for the diocese, the video attachment is password protected. Priests have been instructed that the password will be given to them at noon on Saturday.

This weekend, the resurrected Notre-Dame finally reopens — but why is it so significant? Well, it wasn't just priceless artworks and manuscripts rescued from the fire in 2019. A truly extraordinary object is kept inside... (thread) 🧵

@jwest_edm @FrMatthewLC I think a lot of people are obsessing about demons and exorcisms as a way to blame the devil for their own sinful choices and distract themselves from true spiritual food and work.

@FrMatthewLC Why does there seem to be a sudden rise in discussion and interest on this topic? My usual reply is just say the St Michael prayer often and be better at your daily responsibilities and there is no need to worry about this stuff that much.

Exorcists have no special knowledge about the spiritual life: all they have more contact with over other priests is demons. Demons are habitual liars so we can't trust anything they say as being truthful.

Cardinal-elect Timothy Radcliffe suggests African bishops' rejection of Fiducia Supplicans was due to “heavy pressure from evangelicals, with American money; from Russian Orthodox, with Russian money; & from Muslims, with money from rich Gulf countries.” lsn.click/my0zk6

This is a 1436 painting by Flemish master Jan van Eyck, of Mary, Jesus, and saints. You might think it's just an ordinary devotional painting — think again...

two molehills that I currently die on 1) it's not OCIA yet. The new ritual book has been announced, but not issued. 2) calling sacrament of initiation prep "RCIA" is as silly as calling marriage prep "OCM" for "Order of Celebrating Matrimony" would be
