Bishop Schneider Explains Why the Traditional Latin Mass Is Rare in Kazakhstan

Bishop Schneider promotes and celebrates the Mass in the Roman Rite, yet it is rarely celeberated in Kazakhstan, he told Adrian Milag in an online interview. Main points, video sequence below.

- We have no altar girls in all Kazakhstan. It is banned. No women, no altar girls.

- We have no Eucharistic ministers at all.

- The only ordinary form to receive Holy Communion is kneeling and on the tongue, with the paten. There is no other possibility except for the sick.

- Thanks be to God, our liturgies are very worthy… even in the Novus Ordo.

- The people are pious and devoted. They don’t know the Latin Mass and some don’t even feel the necessity. If there would be a greater movement, it would be possible also. But until now we have not these considerable groups.

- I celebrate in my private episcopal chapel the traditional Latin Mass and when I am teaching in the seminary, I also celebrate for the seminarians.
- True ecumenism is that non-Catholics come back to the Church and embrace all the truth.

- False ecumenism makes compromises to please non-Catholics. This betrays the faith.

- I entrust you to Our Lady, the Coredemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces.
