Closing Prayer: Let Us Pray. O Lord Jesus Christ, Who hast said: Ask and ye shall receive, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you; grant, we beseech Thee, to us who ask the gift of Thy divine love, that we may ever love Thee with all our hearts, and in all our words and actions, and never cease from praising Thee. Give us, O Lord, a perpetual fear and love of Thy holy Name; for Thou never failest to govern those whom Thou dost solidly establish in Thy love, Who livest and reignest world without end. R. Amen.
THank you and bless you all! I hope there will be more to come, more prayers, the rosary all in latin with the text. This has helped me tremendiously and I"m sharing it like crazy. This is perfect for someone deepening their faith and apart of the TLM community. I absolutly love it and thank you for sharing this powerful Litany. God bless you. In Christ.
Great points! The only question now: is it still good to read? For the average person, will it influence them in the wrong direction even if it, in it's self is not bad?
This is a powerful weapon for every soul. Listen this daily. Or sing it in the morning and in the evening. God bless you all. Disons nous toutes les jours: Jesus et Marie je vous aime! Et toutes les esprit mauvais seront confondus et vaincus. Saint Michel Archange protège notre âme. Amen
I've never heard of a rule saying you can't. In general, when it comes to your own private prayer at home the Church allows you to do whatever you want as long as it doesn't contradict the faith.
Could you do a video on the use of a gong with the same thing that you did in this video? This would be great for parishes that use gongs instead of bells.
I have seen in Anglican Parishes altar Bells rang during the Nicean Creed when the people say "...For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,and was made man. ..." Do you have any insights why the Altar Bells are rang at this time?
The story I heard is that St. Louis, King of France, went on the crusades the soldiers from all over Europe noticed his practice of genuflecting during those words as an act of reverence for the Incarnation. The soldiers began to imitate him. When they returned home they continued the practice and soon it had spread to most of the Latin Church and eventually became an officially recognized liturgical gesture. My guess is that the Anglicans decided to use the bells during that time for a similar reason and in imitation of the Catholic practice.
Thanks for posting this. I've wanted to learn it for some time and only found this today. By the way, I'm no expert, but the Gregorian notation on the ICKSP site seems to differ slightly from the google drive version, and it is the google drive version that seems to match the chanting in the video. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
UNFORTUNATELY it wasn't explained what REALLY HAPPENS when these bells are ringing and sadly the bells depicted in this video don't sound to nice when he rang them. ALOT......of people are UNAWARE of WHAT HAPPENS when THESE BELLS are RUNG at Holy Mass. I....guess I am BLESSED..! to know. Of course I am willing to share my knowledge of the truth.✝😇✝
What does this bell ringing have to do with serving god? I believe we should use our resources in saving the lives of poor godless people. This is a sick waste of time, all of it
Gustav Hassert Acts 2:42 "They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer." Devotion requires attention. Sometimes we don't have attention when we should. Bells can help us keep our attention to appreciate the mystery of God's love present on the altar. When we realize that we are loved then we are able to love others. As the medieval used to say: Nemo dat quod non habet - No one gives what he does not have. And so the bells are a minor but helpful part of our devotion to the Breaking of the Bread.
MrDANK ✴If u really knew what actually happens as the bells are ringing u wouldn't have ever said that although the particular bells in this video ,the way he is ringing them does not sound as good as it should. Based on your comment I wonder if you in fact really do attend ✝The Holy Scrafice of The Mass. I type very carefully and after sending it through words were there I never put so no choice but to edit . Very strange. I screenshot it so I can prove it.
Thank You Love .....Hearing the bells at mass brings Attention and Focus when our thoughts are roaming and brings silence and revence to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in our presence. Also every time a bell rings angels get their wings. God Bless
Thank you very much my brother. My daughter is now alter serving and we have not had the bells rung in mass for a long time. It is something we miss and look forward to. Thanks again and God be with you :-)
Actually in our parish the bells are rung at the entrance of the Priest, at the Gloria in Excelsis, at the Sanctus, at the Epiclesis, at the Elevation, at the Domine non sum dignus and when the Priest receives Sanguis Cristi.
In Holland we actually ring once after the sanctus, just to remind the church to kneel. Some places even ring three times at the beginning of the sanctus, but that's an old habbit.
Thanks for your knowledgeable explanation of this beautiful custom. In my parish, there are two sets of bells, one with a higher pitch than the other. At the Epiclesis, one bell is given a short ring. At each elevation, both bells give three short rings, alternating "hi-lo.....hi-lo......hi-lo," and the tower bell is tolled three times. We also give a short ring with one bell when the priest receives from the chalice as a signal for the extraordinary ministers to enter the sanctuary.
