Slovakia Trip - Highlights
Latin. Yesterday, Francis concluded his three-day visit to Slovakia. One highlight was the Byzantine Divine Liturgy for the Exaltation of the Cross. While the papal Novus Ordo liturgies are rigidly presided over in vulgar language, Francis, at the Byzantine liturgy, suddenly prayed in Latin. The Byzantines triumphed with exquisite vestments and beautiful liturgical vessels. Communion was administered with 25,000 spoons.
Francis polemicises against "old traditions"
Polemics. At yesterday's Novus Ordo Eucharist at Slovakia's Šaštín Marian shrine, Francis used Our Lady to attack Catholics. He described Mary – in an abstract way - as a constant pilgrimage in search of God. Quote: "On this journey, one overcomes the temptation of a passive faith, content with this or that ritual or ancient tradition.” However, Francis himself attempted only recently to reduce the Church's liturgy to the Novus Ordo. Communion was distributed on the hands like biscuits. The cross of …More

He warned against clerics who politicise by refusing communion, as if giving communion to pro-abortion politicians was not politicisation: RIGHT ON!
Ironic since the Byzantine liturgy is normally NOT prayed in Latin, but Church Slavonic!
Slavonic is seldom used anymore, as those of us who worship in the Byzantine Rite can attest, particularly here in the U.S.
I watched the video taken of the liturgy in Presov. The majority of it was prayed in Slovak, not Slavonic, but there was some Slavonic a couple of times.

The pope obviously doesn't speak either one of those languages, so the few times that the pope actually spoke (besides the sermon), it makes sense that he would use Latin. His part in the liturgy was minimal, as would normally be the case.
In addition, it is more than obvious that a huge portion of the people in attendance were Roman Rite, not GC. It's easy to spot the Roman Rite Catholics in the video immediately, particularly at the Gospel, the Anaphora, during Holy Communion, and at the final blessing. It looked to me like they may have been the majority of the crowd.

"He described Mary – in an abstract way - as a constant pilgrimage in search of God. "
Our Lady is full of grace.
And that is why she visits her cousin Elizabeth, for example.
She does not go on pilgrimage, she is always full of grace, the Lord is with her.
This man insults Our Lady very often.
