Becoming aware - as if he didn't know - that some of his priests celebrate occasionally the Novus Ordo “ad orientum” [correct: ad orientem], Venice Bishop Frank Dewane, Florida, claimed in a January 25 decree that the General instruction of the Roman Mass expects the priest to face the people adding that any other interpretation of the norms is "mistaken."
Following his private interpretation and choice, he orders his priests to preside the Eucharist "facing the people and not impose their own private choices." In a legalistic way he insists that "no priest can celebrate a public Mass ad orientum [re-sic!] without the ‘Ordinary’s written permission.”
Neither Dewane nor any other bishop or pope have the authority to forbid celebrating toward God. Dewayne used to be supportive of the Roman Mass and proper Novus Ordo celebrations which both have a considerable history in Venice diocese. But with Francis, he suddenly made a U-turn.

Why do Catholics take these sheeps in wolve's clothing seriously? Bergoglio has revoked an Apostolic Constitution--which is not his to be able to do-- and for this reason his revocation of the Latin liturgy is without force. The problem is the economic leverage Bergoglio nd his cretins have over priests. They can expel them (sine causa) and the poor cleric is without food or a home. Those clerics …More
Why do Catholics take these sheeps in wolve's clothing seriously? Bergoglio has revoked an Apostolic Constitution--which is not his to be able to do-- and for this reason his revocation of the Latin liturgy is without force. The problem is the economic leverage Bergoglio nd his cretins have over priests. They can expel them (sine causa) and the poor cleric is without food or a home. Those clerics who are not subject to such economic blackmail can tell Jorge to go shove it where the sun don't shine. In Eastern Orthodoxy there is no such leverage against the presbyter since most are married and their wives have income paying professions. But then again Eastern Orthodoxy has never really has a wastrel like Jorge serve as the Patriarch of Constantinople. In Eastern Orthodoxy differnt patriarchates are in place so that all the faithful are heard. Not like the Vatican. In the 11th to 13th century most RC popes did not even live in Rome.

We have to turn our backs to bishops who tell our priests to turn their backs to God.

I think they have been "moonblinked!" Seriously! They have lost the Faith and they have become obedient followers of their hirelings! Practicing communism does that to a person. The Rosary and Scapular are given us, especially in the end of this 5th Age, by Our Lady of Fatima, as a solution to this crime of our age! Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!

Ha! If ad orientem were actually prohibited in the NO, he would have no authority to give it “written permission,” as the bishop’s authority over the liturgy gives him the authority to enforce proper celebration, not something that is against liturgical norms. It’s all such a joke.

Gelovige priesters blijf trouw aan uw geloof en uw overtuiging, gehoorzaam de bisschop niet en begin een eigen Romeinse Rooms Katholieke kerk.
