Reform of the Liturgy? Begin With Facing the Lord
Offering the Mass with everyone facing the Lord will help much "to show that the Mass is not some kind of social event between the priest and parishioners, or the parishioners among themselves", Cardinal Raymond Burke said in an interview with The Wanderer (August 21).
According to the Cardinal, another reform needs to take place with regard to the disposition of the Church, "In so many places the tabernacles were removed from the sanctuary of the Church as the result of a false interpretation of the Second Vatican Council."
"The manner of receiving Holy Communion reverently on one’s knees and on the tongue is another important (place) to start," the Cardinal added.
