  1. I found my faith in christ about six months ago and I've been going to my local catholic church for the past couple of weeks. The tradition is beautiful and fascinating. Although I'm still learning the prayers and structures, it's been an amazing experience.

  2. Good video Father, but I wish you would have chosen a more reverent Mass as the example as new Catholics may be watching. God Bless.

  3. Thank you so much for a wonderful video. It was terrific I needed it I have one question can you talk about the Eucharist actually being the blood and body of Christ because Jesus said it was OK but got it right it was not a representation, but it actually is how can you explain you chapter 23 verse nine this has bothered me for a long time. Please help me understand. It seems to me in that verse that Jesus is explicitly clear.

  4. On Sunday i went back to the Carholic Church for the first time in 30yrs. I was excited about getting back, but today I read the Catholic Church will allow same sex marriage. Now I'm not going back. I felt it was a PR move, and I'm not happy about it.

  5. How can anyone have any faith in the Catholic Church after the horrendous sex crimes inflicted on its parishioners ?

  6. Thank you, as someone who's trying to learn mass and become familiar with it this was great information

  7. Thank you for this excellent video. I frequently go back to watch it because I find it to be so refreshing.

  8. I would love to show this video to my RCIA class, but I am appalled by the interior design (wreckovation) of the sanctuary. First, there is no crucifix above the tabernacle and is that bathroom tile on the wall? I realize many of you reading this will not understand, but Christ deserves better, in fact, the very best.

  9. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Currently in RCIA and I swear, if I had found this video earlier, my earlier mass attendances would've been more enjoyable.

  10. What a great video! While my Dad was a cradle Catholic, he left the Church shortly after I was baptized. The way he explained his leaving (Mom was divorced when they married) kept me away from the Catholic Church. Thanks to social media, I found out I had listened to incorrect information. Through the study of the Bible, I finally realized God was talking about His one, Holy, Catholic and apostolic Church and not to any other church. My first mass attendance was very humbling. I realized then that God had shown me the mass in a dream as a child either right before or right after I had joined the Presbyterian Church in 1967. Had I only known then instead of 50+ years later.

  11. Keep your fake mass.

    –The Vatican 2 documents explained :

    Without understanding the following you will never be able to understand the documents. I will list here, what the documents consist of, by name and by title. But you will never find the list of these names inside the documents this is deliberate. For the purpose of concealment. But what you will find in every paragraph of every page the “definition” of the terms listed. Therefore the Vatican two documents consist of “definition” only:
    Without understanding the following you will never be able to understand the documents. I will list here, what the documents consist of, by name and by title. But you will never find the list of these names inside the documents this is deliberate. For the purpose of concealment. But what you will find in every paragraph of every page the “definition” of the terms listed. Therefore the Vatican two documents consist of “definition” only:
    1) Indifferentism
    2) Syncretism and Synthesis
    3) Immanent
    4) Transcendentalism
    5) Individualism
    6) Existentialism, naturalism
    7) Stoicism
    8) Pantheism
    9) Evolution
    10) The Sciences such as historian sociology psychology critic…

    If you look up Saint Pope Pius 10 Encyclical
    “ Pascendi Dominici Gregis” you will find he new about Vatican 2 and wrote a detailed comprehensive explanation of Vatican 2, listing in detail more than half of the items above listed, and he even explains, in example, how it is meant to diminish Jesus Christ and the one true church and desecrate all seven sacraments and to leave the door open for more of modernism and Progressive changes in the future. He is not alone !!! Pius 10 on the Errors of Modernism, Pius 9 his Syllabus of Errors and Pope Gregory 16 in his Encyclical “Mirari Vos” see #19 on the waldensians,the Beghards,the Wycliffites, and all the popes condemned the documents of Vatican 2 and the Synod of Pistoia and warned the faithful with excommunication, anathema if you don't reject the Vatican two documents, and church, and embrace the one true traditional Catholic Church, the depository of faith, before the end of your life.

    As you examine these terms and then read the Vatican two documents you can clearly see the “definition” of all the above listed terms, but not the terms themselves, and the evil,and that it is no longer Catholic but a new religion that will lead you straight to hell !!!

    Then what are we to do you ask ?

    If you are a true Traditional Catholic then you are supposed to do what the Blessed Virgin Mary told us to do in these evil times, that she described at Fatima, in the third Secret. Not the fake phony Third Secret that John Paul II falsified and Rewritten, along with the fake Lucia !!! But the real true Third Secret of Fatima. You are also to do what the Blessed Virgin Mary told us to do at La Salette, France and again at Our Lady of Good Success, who described in great detail what is to happen to the Catholic church at the end of the 20th century and she was 100% right !!!

    What do we do then ? what did she say to
    do ? She said to say the Traditional Rosary, not the rosary of John Paul II, the Traditional Rosary 15 decades everyday or 5 decades on Monday, 5 decades on Tuesday, and 5 decades, on Wednesday. Since the Mass is the greatest prayer of all !!! you get the Saint Andrews missile (and no other missile) but the St Andrews missile, and you say Mass every Sunday (you're not able to consecrate) but you can still say the prayers of the Mass !!! From only the Saint Andrew's missile. You can say the rosary, the Seven Sorrows of Mary, the Stations of the Cross, all at home. Have nothing to do with today's fake Catholic Church!!! NOTHING !!! This means all Vatican 2 priests and parishioners also the sspx, sspv, cmri, fssps… It will be a mortal sin and send you straight to hell if you go to any of these groups who support and embrace “Invincible ignorance” and also “baptism of desire and blood” that the Traditional Catholic church teaches against !!! this is heresy !!! and these groups, the sspx and others Embrace these heresies !!! along with using the St Joseph's missile (THIS IS A condemned missile) if anyone, even the Pope, tells you that it's not a condemned missile they are – A – Liar !! don't believe them, they're a liar and a Heretic !!! Heretics will send you to Hell !!!

    You say your prayers at home, you stay at home, and you say your prayers at home, the Traditional prayers of the church and you say them every day. You read the Bible the Catholic Bible and no other since all other Bibles have been Rewritten with attacks againt Mary !!! and study the lives of the Saints of the church, and stay away from newly written or revised books on the market today !!! Don't buy any books on the market after 1960 !!!!

    What about confession and all that ? You confess your sins to God the Father, Son and Holy Ghost using the prayers in the St Andrews missile, in the confessional which is in the back of the book, or you say one of the seven penitential Psalms along with the act of contrition. That's your confession, at home where you are safe both in body and soul !! For baptism you do the same at home with the proper, Matter, Form and Intent !!!

    But whatever you do have nothing to do with the Vatican 2 Church sspx, sspv, fssp…. even if it's empty do not go in it !!! Judgment day is almost here.

    P.S.- the Most Holy Family Monastery is a good resource me and my colleagues have kept a close eye on them for over 20 years I highly recommend them.

    God Love You

  12. All the Vatican 2 catholics say it's too confusing, I don't understand, it's confusing ! Or the mass is enough, No, it's not enough. You must have the true Traditional Catholic Faith.
    There is nothing Confusing about it !!!

    Pope Eugene IV, Council Florence, Cantate Domino, 1441 : therefore the Catholic Church condemns Rejects excommunicates and declares to be outside the body of Christ which is the Catholic Church whoever holds opposing or contrary views.

    Pope Pelagius II, Quod ad dilectionem, 585:
    If anyone however either suggests or believes or presumes to teach contrary to this faith, let him know that he is Condemned and also anathematized, excommunicated, according to the opinion of the Fathers..

    Pope Eugene IV, Council Florence, Cantate Domino, 1441 : therefore the Catholic Church condemns Rejects excommunicates and declares to be outside the body of Christ which is the Catholic Church whoever holds opposing or contrary views.

    Pope Pelagius II, Quod ad dilectionem, 585:
    If anyone however either suggests or believes or presumes to teach contrary to this Faith, let him know that he is Condemned and also anathematized, excommunicated, according to the opinion of the same Fathers.

    Pope Gregory 16th, 1831 – 1846 : let nothing of the truths, that have been defined be lessened, nothing altered, nothing added, but let them be preserved intact in word and meaning !!

    Vatican Council of 1870 session 3 chapter 4, part 13 and 14 EX Cathedra — for the doctrine of the Faith which God has revealed, is put forward not as some philosophical Discovery capable of being perfected by human intelligence, but as a Divine Deposit committed to the Spouse of Christ to be Faithfully protected and infallibly promulgated, hence to that meaning of the sacred dogmas is ever to be maintained which has once been declared by Holy Mother Church, and there must never be any abandonment of this sense under the pretext, or in the name of a more profound understanding.

    Pope Leo 13 – Satis Cognitum # 13, 1896. You are not to be looked upon as holding the true Catholic faith if you do not teach the Faith of Rome is to be held.

    Pope Pius10th syllabus, condemning the errors of the modernists 1907 article 62 : the proposition the chief articles of the Apostles Creed did not have the same sense for the Christians of the first stages as they have for the Christians of our time is hereby condemned as erroneous.

    St John of the Cross, 1591 wherefore if there be revealed to us anything new or different we must in no way give consent to it not even though it were spoken by an Angel.

    St. Thomas Aquinas doctor of the church 1274 all those who deny one Article of Faith regardless of their reason are by that very fact excommunicated.

    Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence Session 8, 1439 – Ex Cathedra – Whoever Wills to be saved before all things it is necessary that he holds the Catholic Faith. Unless a person keeps this Faith whole and undefiled without doubt He Shall Perish eternally.

    Pope Leo 13th, 1896 the practice of the church has always been the same as is shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers who were want to hold as outside Catholic communion and alien to the church whoever would recede in the least degree from any point of Doctrine proposed by her authoritative magisterium.

    Council Florence session 11 February 4th, 1442; Ex Cathedra; the Holy Roman Church condemns reproves anathematize has and declares to be outside the body of church which is the Catholic Church whoever holds opposing or contrary views.

    Pope Saint Leo the Great, Doctor of the Church, 440- 461 A.D. – the faith shall never vary in any age for one is the faith which justifies the just of all ages it is unlawful to differ even by a single word from Apostolic Doctrine.

    Pope Leo 10th, 5th lateran Council, session 8th, 1513 Ex Cathedra, and since truth cannot contradict the truth, we Define that every statement contrary to the enlightened truth of the Faith is totally false and we strictly forbid teaching otherwise to be permitted, we decree that all those who cling to erroneous statements of this time, thus sowing heresies which are wholly condemned should be avoided in every way and punished as detestable and odious Heretics and infidels who are undermining the Catholic Faith.

    Saint Athanasius,died 373 AD. God's word is one and the same in the doors forever unchanged always the same.

    Pope Pius 9th, Qui Pluribus I'm, faith and religion November 9th 1846 paragraph 20, Never Cease to instruct all men in it, never tolerating and letting pass anyting which could in the slightest degree defiled the purity of this Faith !!! With the same great strength of Mind Foster and all men their Unity with the Catholic Church outside of which there is no salvation.

    Pope Saints Sixtus, 3,432 A.D. Nothing new is to be allowed for nothing can be added to the old look for the faith of the elders and do not let our faith be disturbed by a mixture of new doctrines.

    St Vincent of Lerins, 445 A.D., all novelty in Faith is a sure Mark of heresy. Saint Paul Cried Out aloud again and again to all men to all times and to all places that if anyone announces a new doctrine let him be anathematized excommunicated.

    Ecclesiastics 18:5 – Nothing maybe taken away or added.

    Pope Pius X, 1903-1914 A.D., Oath against Modernism – And so I retain most firmly the faith of the Fathers and shall retain it until the final Breath of Life !! Regarding the certain Gifts of Truth, which is, was and will, always be, in the succession of the episcopacy, from the Apostles, But not so that what may seem better and more fitting according to each one's period of culture, may be held, but so that the absolute and immutable truth preached by the apostles from the beginning may never be believed otherwise, may never be understood otherwise !!!

    Galatians 1:8 – but though we are an angel from heaven preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you let him be anathema excommunicated from the church

    Proverbs 30:6, add nothing to his words lest you be reproved and found a liar.

    St Thomas Aquinas, Doctor of the church died 1274 A.D – Our faith is identical with that of the ancients. Deny this and you dissolve the unity of the church !! we must hold this for certain that the Faith of the people at the present day is one with the Faith of the people of past centuries !!! were this not true then we would be in a different Church then they and literally the church would not be one !!!

    Saint Cyril of Alexandria, Doctor of the church died 444, A.D. – for it is not allowable for anyone to change even one word, nor allow one syllable to be passed over mindful of the saying : past not beyond the ancient bounds which thy fathers have set !!!

    Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (# 9)June 29,1896: Can it be lawful for anyone to reject any one of those truths without by that very fact falling into heresy ?!! without separating himself from the Catholic Church ? Without repudiating in one sweeping act the whole of Christian teaching ? For such is the nature of Faith that nothing can be more absurd than to accept some things and reject others !!! But he who dessents even in one point from divinely revealed truth absolutely rejects all the faith, since he thereby refuses the honor God as the Supreme truth and the formal motive of Faith.

    Pope Leo XIII,Satis Cognitum # 9, June 29,1896: the Catholic Church found it on these principles and mindful of her office has done nothing with greater Zeal and Endeavor then she has displayed in guarding the Integrity of the Catholic faith hence she regarded as Rebels and expelled from the ranks of her children all who held beliefs on any point of Doctrine different from her own.

    If there is a change YOU ARE NOT TO SUPPORT IT OR embrace it IN ANY WAY !!!
    There is no confusion unless you're a heretic and belong to the vatican 2 fake church, there is no confusion for true Catholics, I'll say that again, there is no confusion for the true Catholics !! The teachings of the church are simple and clear. Nothing is to be changed !!!!! Nothing !!! If you disagree with this your excommunicated from the church you no longer are Catholic you no longer have a father in Heaven.

  13. This mass is as old as your church building from 1967; this is not the true Holy Sacrifice of the Mass; this Protestantized service only retains 13% of the true Catholic Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. This is an abomination.

  14. I'm only five minutes into this video and wow! This is so well done and informative. Thank you so much for making this content.

  15. Thank you for this. As an Anglo-Catholic theology student who is exploring and learning about the ordinariates, could you please explain what missal this is and explain a bit about the rites. Many thanks

  16. The catholic church does not follow the teachings of Jesus Christ but rather follows pagan traditions. And the Papacy whose leader is the Pope got his authority from Satan not from God who gave Jesus Christ all authority. And the Pope bows down and worship satan.

    Rev 13:4 People worshiped the dragon (who is Satan) because he (Satan) had given authority to the beast, (who is the Papacy whose leader is the Pope) and they (referring to the lost who do not follow the teachings of Jesus Christ) also worshiped the beast (who is the Papacy whose leader is the Pope) and asked, "Who is like the beast? (referring to the second beast who is the United States) Who can wage war against it?"

    And it is written: Other sheep I have that are not of the SDA church who it is written says in Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, including the 4th commandment which says. Remember to keep the Sabbath Day Holy and have the testimony and the faith of Jesus Christ.

    They too, The other sheep from the other churches will come into the Seventh Day Adventist church, if they are Jesus sheep, who hear my voice. The only thing that makes the Seventh Day Adventist church special are the messages that were given to her for the times we are living in.

    John 10:16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.

    Rev 18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “’Come out of her, The Catholic church, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

    and her, The Catholic churches harlots are the other churches who do speak the truth or do not stand up for truth.

    Rev 17:4 And the woman (who is the Papacy whose leader is the Pope) was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication which is spiritual adultry: 5 And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots (is the Papacy (the Roman Catholic church whose leader is the Pope) And Abominations Of The Earth.

  17. What all the SAINTS say “No Salvation outside the Chtholic church.”

    Pope St. Clement the first 88–97 A.D. heretical teachers pervert the scriptures and bibles and tried to get into heaven with false Bibles, for they have formed their human assemblies later then the Catholic Church. From this previously existing and most true Catholic Church, it is very clear that these later heresies Heretics and others which have come into being since then, are counterfeit and novel inventions.

    St. Ignatius of Antioch a disciple of St Peter and St Paul died 107 A.D.
    For as many as are of God and of Jesus Christ are also with the Bishop. And as many as shall, in the “exercise of repentance” return into the unity of the Catholic Church, these, too, shall belong to God, that day may live according To Jesus Christ. Do not error, and sin, my brethren. If any man follows him that makes a schism in the Catholic church he shall not inherit the kingdom of God if anyone walks according to a strange opinion, he agrees not with the passion of Christ.

    Saint Irenaeus, died 202 A.D. – the Catholic church is the entrance to life all others are thieves, and robbers, and Heretics. On this account we are bound to avoid them… We hear it declared of the unbelieving and the blinded of this world that they should not inherit the world of life, which is to come.. Resist them in defense of the only true and Life Giving Catholic faith, which the church has received from the Apostles and imparted to her sons. (against heresies book 3).

    Saint Cyrian, died 258 A.D. – he who has turned his back on the Catholic Church of Christ shall not come to the rewards of Christ he is an alien a worldling, an enemy and heretic. You cannot have God for your father if you have not the Catholic Church or your mother our Lord warns us when he says “ he that is not with me is against me and he that gatherth not with me scatters” whosoever breaks the peace and Harmony of Christ acts against Christ whoever gathers elsewhere then the Catholic Church scatters the Church of Christ.” ( Unity of the Catholic Church)

    Saint Irenaeus, against heresies book for chapter 41 A.D. 180 – those who do not obey him being disinherited by him have cease to be his sons wherefore they cannot receive his inheritance he who does not hold this Unity does not hold the law of God does not hold the Catholic faith of the father and the son does not hold life and salvation.

    Bishop Firmilean, died 269 A.D.– what is the greatness of his error, and what the depth of his blindness, who says that remission of sins can be granted in the synagogues of Heretics, and does not abide on the foundation of the one true Catholic Church.

    Lactantius,died 310 A.D. – It is the Catholic Church “alone” which retains true worship !! This is the Fountain of Truth. This is the abode of the faith, this is the temple of God; and none other, into which if anyone shall not enter or from which, if anyone shall go out, he is a stranger to the hope of life and eternal salvation. ( the Divine Institutes)

    Saint Cyril of Jerusalem died 386 A.D. – Abhor all Heretics.. heed not their fair speaking or their mock humility; for they are serpents, a “brood of vipers” Remember that, when Judas said “Hail Rabbi,” the salutation was an act of betrayal. Do not be deceived by “the kiss” but Beware of the venom. Abhor such men, therefore, and shun the blasphemers of the Holy Spirit, for whom there is no pardon. For what Fellowship have you with men without hope. Let us confidently say to God regarding all Heretics, “Did I not hate, O Lord, those who hate Thee, and did I not Pine away because of your enemies ?!! For there is an enmity that is laudable, as it is written, “I will put enmity between you and the woman, between your seed and her seed.” Friendship with the serpent produces enmity with God, and death. Let us shun those from whom God turns away.( the fathers of the church)

    Saint John Chrysostom doctor of the church died 407 A.D. – We know that salvation belongs to the Catholic Church “alone” and that no one can partake of Christ nor be saved outside the Catholic Church and the Catholic faith. (De Capto Eutropia)

    Saint Jerome, died 4/20 A.D. – As I follow no leader save Christ, so I communicate with none but your blessedness, that is, with the chair of Peter. For this, I know, is the rock on which the Catholic Church is built… This is the Ark of Noah, and he who is not found in it Shall Perish when the flood prevails… and as for Heretics, I have never spared them; on the contrary, I have seen to it in every possible way that the church's enemies are also my enemies.(Manual of Patrology and history of theology)

    Saint Bede the venerable died 7:35 A.D. – Just as all within the ark were saved and all outside of it were carried away when the flood came, so when all who are pre-ordained to eternal life have entered the Catholic Church, the end of the world will come and all will perish who are found outside of it.(Hexaemeron)

    Saint Thomas Aquinas died 1274 A.D. – There is no entering into salvation outside the Catholic Church just as in the time of the deluge there was none outside the ark which denotes the Catholic Church.

    Blessed Peter Canisius died 1597 A.D.- Outside of this communion with the Catholic Church – as outside of the Ark of Noah – there is absolutely no salvation for Mortals : Not for Jews or pagans who never received the faith of the Catholic Church, Nor for Heretics who, having received it, corrupted
    it !! Neither for the excommunicated or those who for any other serious cause deserve to be put away and separated from the body of the Catholic Church like pernicious members… for the rule of Cyprian and Augustine is certain : he will not have God for his father who would not have the church for his mother. (Catechismi Latini et Germanici)

    Venable robber to Bellarmine died 1621 A.D. – Outside the Catholic Church there is no salvation… I believe in the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the Forgiveness of sins… For this reason the Catholic church is compared with the Ark of Noah, because just as during the deluge, everyone perished who was not in the ark, so now those Parish who are not in the Catholic Church. (De Sacramento Baptism)

    St. John Marie Vinny died 1859 A.D. – My children, why are there no sacraments in other religions ? because there is no salvation
    there !! We have the sacraments at our disposal because we belong to the true religion of salvation the Catholic Church.

    Athanasius Creed, 370 A.D. – Whoever wishes to be saved before all things it is necessary that he holds the Catholic faith, and no other, which unless each one preserves whole and inviolate, without doubt he will perish everlastingly, this is the Catholic faith which unless Each One Believes faithfully and firmly he cannot be saved.

    Saint Augustine Doctor of the church 430 A.D. – the comparison of the church with Paradise, shows us that men may indeed receive baptism outside her pail, but that no one outside can either receive or retain the salvation of Eternal happiness, for as the words of the scriptures testify the streams from the Fountain of paradise flowed copiously even Beyond its bounds. Record is indeed made of their names, and through what countries they flowed, and that they are situated beyond the limits of paradise, is known to all, and yet in Mesopotamia and in Egypt to which countries those Rivers extended, there is not found that blessedness of life which is recorded in Paradise. Accordingly although the Waters of paradise are found Beyond its boundaries yet it's happiness is in “Paradise alone” so therefore the baptism of the Catholic Church may exist outside but the gift of the life of happiness is found alone within the Catholic Church, which has been founded on a rock which has received the keys of binding and loosing.

    Pope Leo XIII – “Satis Cognitum”
    #13,1896 : you are not to be looked upon as holding the true Catholic faith if you do not teach that the traditional faith of Rome is to be held.
    St Thomas Aquinas, Doctor of the church, died 1274 a.d.– all those who deny one Article of Faith regardless of their reason are by that very fact excommunicated.

    Pope Leo XIII,”Satis Cognitum”,June29,1896,para 9
    The practice of the church has always been the same as is shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers who were wont to hold as outside Catholic communion and alien to the church whoever would receive in the least degree from any point of Doctrine proposed by her Authoritative Magisterium.

    Pope Eugene IV, Council Florence, Session 8, November 22, 1439. Ex Cathedra, Dogma – Whoever Wills to be saved before all things it is necessary, that he holds the traditional Catholic Faith. Unless a person keeps this Faith whole and undefiled, without doubt He Shall Perish Eternally !!

  18. The bible never teaches mass.sunday is not the sabbath of god but saturday.

  19. The lights – or candles, on either side of the Tabernacle that you see means that Christ is present in the Tabernacle. This video is fantastic!

  20. Thank you Father! I am returning to the faith after decades away; so much has changed! Your explanations and discussion are so helpful. Thank you!

  21. Thank you for this video. Very helpful. Curious to know why cradle Catholics are discriminatory toward RCIA Catholics. I dropped out of RCIA because of that. They were allll so condescending, even the staff working at the parish office. They are always grouchy and rude. I still go to mass because I want to pray there. I really love mass. I feel God's energy there. But, I don't engage or interact with Catholics because of their weirdness.

  22. This is wo derful to wztch .as a pentecostal making things clear. Im tired of emotional exp .love this mass i want to go but afraid im just learning may be too old to convert now but would love to attend mass .so awesome you have mass every day not just sunday❤

  23. Catholic mass was traditionally spoken in Latin, with the priest facing the alter, praying for his flock to god, The music is Gregorian with an organ playing, there is the scent of incense, candles on the alter. The. Catholic mass is focused on transubstantiation of the Eucharist. This is not Catholic mass, this is Protestant mass, the Novus Ordo Mass, the new mass while the Traditional, ancient mass of 2000 years has been dismantled. Comments in here like ‘I’m a teen Catholic, I will be getting baptised soon’…what is that? A Catholic is a parishioner who has already been baptised. Once you are baptised in the Catholic Church, you are catholic, not before. You may attend church of course, but no one is catholic until they are baptised. God help our Catholic faith & our church. This is a hollow shell of our Catholic faith. Im not a teen, im not in my 30’s or 40’s but old enough to know the mass was sacred, ancient, the rubrics of the priests were special and wit purpose. This is kumbaya in the Protestant church, not catholic.

  24. Great explanations and knowledge It is interesting how I grew up Catholic loving God but really just going thru the motions
    I have come back to the Church and as an older man and hopefully wiser. I really want to know the basics of the Mass and then move on to bible study . Thank you for your great teaching ability

  25. Thank you so much for this video. Today I will be going to the Holy Mass for the first time and quite nervous

  26. I am 30 year old catholic. I really dont understand everything during mass. This is helpful. I think its never too late for me to really know the detail explanation right? 😢

  27. I need a refresher course. I've been going to mass but it's in French and I still remember most things we do.

  28. Thank you for taking the time to explain all of this in this video. It was very helpful. Thank you again.

  29. I was baptized catholic but i havent been to mass since 2011! Im going tomorrow as a 17 year old and i'm so nervous!

  30. Hello Father, the washing of the hands is an exact description of Exodus 30:17-20. It is amazing to compare the Mass with the Old Testament.

  31. Brother in Christ, I cannot begin to thank you enough for this. I was catholic, transitioned to non denominational when I was 8, but once covid started I stopped going to church altogether. I didn't reject Jesus' teachings, nor did I ever lose my faith in God. in March of 2023, I was in Brussels and went to the church of St. Catherine, and felt the hands of Virgin Mary spiritually touch me. Never have I ever felt so connected to the faith until then. When I got home, I would make a point to walk in the wilderness, amongst Gods perfect creations. Unfortunately due to family and other things that came up, I stopped. However, in recent months I have begun to feel bouts of loneliness, and tomorrow, I returning to Catholicism for the sense of community and structure is something I need now more than ever. I pray for you, reader of this comment, and I pray for good health upon you and your family. God bless, amen.

  32. I was raised Protestant (Baptist) and I’m converting soon. I cannot wait! I’ve never felt closer to God than when I’m in mass. This was a very educational video! Thank you so much 🙏🏼

  33. Thank you. This was so enlightening. Now that I am a parent, I realize the responsibility I have to role model the Catholic faith to my children. I realized in trying to teach my daughter that there were many things I forgot, that have changed, or that I simply did not know. This was very informative, thank you.

  34. I don't understand Mass. So in Catholicism, the bread and wine LITERALLY become the body and blood of Christ, right? But the Bible is clear that you shouldn't consume blood. Could you help me understand?
