Schneider: Catholics can attend Novus Ordo Eucharists


 



The position of Catholics to never attend a Novus Ordo Eucharist "is not correct", Bishop Athanasius Schneider told OnePeterFive.com (January 1).


"If the new Mass can be celebrated 'reverently', it is not heretical."


During his time as a religious priest in his Community of the Holy Cross, the Novus Ordo Eucharist was celebrated in Latin, turned towards the Lord (versus Deum), with Holy Communion received kneeling on the tongue, with the Roman Canon and Gregorian chant.


"I don't see why you cannot assist such a pious Mass."
However, by now, Novus-Ordo Eucharists of this kind are even rarer than Holy Masses in the Roman Rite.
