Do you ever read passages and not quite understand it due to some wording and then have to take time to look up the wording to better understand the passage? Just curious. I want to use the DR more, but I find I spend a lot of time having to better understand what is said many times. God Bless!

    • @DeannaWillistonOFS

      Yes. It has a section called “Devotions for the Days of the Week & the Hours of the Day.” That is then divided into Morning, Midday, and Evening. These are simplified versions of the Ordinariate’s Divine Office (the North American book for this is still out of stock, but you can find the prayers updated daily here if you want to compare: prayer.covert.org/ ).

The last set are the structure of the Divine Office, but you would need to supply the psalms and readings for the day. A listing of those may be found online or in The Ordo .

    locrian has a flat five, this creates a diminished fifth and is the cause of its unsatisfying sound in music not built around it (because a lot of European music is built around resolving perfect fifths) So when you use the sixth and a half fret, what you've done is make it natural again resulting in a flat 2, flat 3, flat 6, and flat 7 i.e. the phrygian mode which unlike locrian is somewhat commonly used, commonly enough to be listenable for most people and relatively applicable in most music even if it's not built around that mode in particular

    Hi Deanna. I’ve thought about getting the St. Gregory’s Prayer Book for awhile now. I have quite a few older prayer books and just can’t seem to settle on one. I typically bring my pocket size Bible to Mass with me which houses quite a few Holy Cards with prayers I like to say for various people. before Mass. I also try to read a bit of scripture at that time or read the Gospel and readings for the day. It can get distracting because there is so much going on in church beforehand; the organist and singers practicing, various conversations going on…. I do,like your comment about brining it to Adoration. God bless, Linda

    • @DeannaWillistonOFS
      @DeannaWillistonOFS Месяц назад

      Ah! It completely depends on WHICH Third Order you are referring to. Obviously the TORs and CFRs and even the MFVAs and various of the Franciscan sisters wear full habits. For the Secular Orders (those for laity and diocesan priests), those following the original rule wear very modest clothes of bland color and little cost (women) and men wear modest suits. Beyond the dress codes (or lack thereof) there is usually some sort of pendant worn on cord, string, or chain . The Confraternity wears the Conformity and the OFS wears the Tau (for example). Most of the Third Order (seculars) are permitted to wear a full Franciscan habit for burial. Lol but… many in the OFS wear various jewelry pieces (there used to be a ring, but earrings as well) and shirts, hats, and hooded sweatshirts with the Tau. I do wonder, if sometime in the future, there might be a return to some sort of official clothing rather than the current hodge-podge of devotion.

A new edition of the Lectionary, the book which contains the readings which are proclaimed at Mass, will come into use in England and Wales in Advent 2024.

      @@DeannaWillistonOFS Mary did not remain a virgin after the birth of Christ, Joseph and Mary had sexual intercourse and she became a mother of many children, that is Jesus’s siblings after the flesh: Matthew 1:25 25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. Notice it says her “firstborn” son… Mark 3:31-35 31 There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him. 32 And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee. 33 And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren? 34 And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! 35 For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother. Who are these “brethren” of Jesus mentioned here? Mark 6:3 3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him. And who are these “sisters” mentioned? Doesn’t it seem rather strange to you that the Catholic Church would teach the perpetual virginity of Mary seeing as how Jesus was the firstborn among others who would have been his siblings?

      @@tluke157 it does not seem strange. The word that you translate to mean “brothers” and “brothers and sisters” means kinsmen. It is used elsewhere in the Bible for people we know are Uncle and nephew and others we know from other passages to be first cousins. The Catholic Church has always taught this since Apostolic times even until now. It’s not something that was invented in the 1500s. See how I used the word “until” ? It does not suggest an end point. You find the word used throughout the Bible in this way.

      @@DeannaWillistonOFS No - the intended meaning is very clear from the context that it is referring to specific types of “kinsmen” as you say and that is brothers and sisters and that would coincide with what is said in the book of Matthew about Christ being the “firstborn” of Mary because the implication is that she continued to bear more children after her firstborn son. There is no reason that can be gathered from scripture that Mary remained a perpetual virgin, you’d have to get that from another source or “authority” and of course you get that from the Catholic Church not scripture. Just like you get all manner of unbiblical ideas about Mary such as the immaculate conception and the assumption and so forth, none of which are found in the Bible but are claimed by the Catholic Church… And just so you know there were many Christian groups outside of the Catholic Church prior to the Protestant Reformation and before the 1500s, that includes first of all the churches in Rome and Corinth and Galatia and Philippi and Ephesus and Thessalonica and so forth which were formed in the 1st century, as well as the Waldensians and Vaudois and Albigenses and Paulicians and Lollards (etc) who were persecuted and deemed heretics by the Roman Catholic Church because they were opposed to their false teachings. And let me ask you this - how can you claim on one hand that you believe the Bible (which all throughout from Genesis to Revelation condemns the consumption of blood) and then on the other hand believe and say that you are to consume blood in the sacrament of the mass? Are you suggesting that the biblical prohibitions against consuming blood found in (Genesis 9:4, Leviticus 17:10, Acts 15:20) are not given by God or are not legitimate scripture?

    I left the formation process for several reasons: 1) As a dad, I spent a lot of time with my two younger teenagers. 2) I was much more involved with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (may look into the fraternity affiliated with them at some point). 3) It felt more like a nice club, rather than an active apostolate helping the poor, visiting the sick, etc. Very nice people, but not in the world. It was all meetings. 4) The authors of the reading material seemed to come from the Left.

      @@edwardgarcia3718 agreed on most of these points. The vision was to unite us all, but it ended up pulling many away from association with the friars and their work. Most of the friars ended up making their own Third Orders, so it’s counterproductive. Some fraternities, however, only do social work and focus little on formation or prayer. And some local fraternities focus more on legislation and social justice. Yes! IMHO To Live As Francis Lived is a much better formation guide for the OFS. The Confraternity of Penitents also has good formation material.

      @@DeannaWillistonOFS thank you for your kind reply. I think that many who are called to be Secular Franciscans are doing the work of God. The fraternity that I was a part of for about 10 months is composed largely of loving, kind devoted folks. It was only because of the reasons mentioned that I discerned that it wasn’t for me. God bless you and your channel.
