Bring back the communion rails
I heard somewhere that the first thing a Catholic should acknowledge when entering the nave, is to gaze upon the tabernacle where our Lord is. I will go to church 10-20mts early and sit and quietly speak to Him, eyes focused on the tabernacle. I've also heard that a guardian angel to a Saint scolded her because she looked away from Christ to someone.. that her attention should be solely upon Him. I find both bits fascinating as new to the church, but I've no problem coming in and sitting with our Lord Jesus. And to Fr. Rich.. once your church has been built and consecrated, may we see it in photos thru the show? I love visiting different churches to visit firstly our Lord, but then to see the uniqueness of that church. The stained glass windows blow my mind, though I love that they were used to tell the story of Christ when so many people could not read.
I love the breakdown of information. Very enlightening.
Just a suggestion…to show visuals of some of the things you are referring to. I am a visual learner and want to make sure I’m picturing what you are explaining. Especially when it might look different in different churches. That would be helpful to people who are new to the Faith & to those who have been brought up in the Faith but are oblivious to.
Thanks 🙏🏽 for you All!
Catholics and everyone who has ears to hear with, hear the Word of the Lord spoken to THIS generation, for it is a call to repentance in this last hour. More of this Word at the bottom of this comment;
"5/14/05 From The Lord, Our God and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear
Thus says The Lord: Beware, O peoples of the church called mother. For she is a harlot, a false way, a deceitful house filled with both great and subtle deceptions. Be wary, rouse yourselves from this heavy sleep, and look upon the fruit of your doings. For you have been greatly misled, caught up in a faith which is dead; there is no life in it! For as it was written by My servant, so in like manner I now plead with you: Depart from the way of evil, from the man who speaks perverse things, from those who leave the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perversity of the pagan, whose ways are crooked and who are devious in their paths. Be delivered from the adulterous woman, from the seductress who flatters with her words, who forsakes the husband of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God. For her house is sinking down to death, and all her paths lead to the dead.[1]
Therefore thus says The Lord God, The Holy One of Israel, to all who have ears to hear: This unholy church of men is a harlot! From the beginning she has been a whore! Yet she would have all believe she is a queen, even the true church and mother. Indeed, she has bore many sons and daughters, daughters who yet bear her likeness; and many sons who shall go to perdition, false fathers and priests, who by their own authority take to themselves proselytes, who they then make twice as fit for destruction as themselves![2] Behold, deception is hidden within deception, as she continues to build up her sins toward Heaven.
For I tell you a mystery filled with corruption,
Abuse of power and contemptible ways:
This church of men is like the woman who rides the beast;
She is clothed with purple and scarlet, enticing the
People to commit fornication with her...
Yet to her own, she is a queen who sits upon
My throne and has taken to herself My authority,
Perverting My Word and changing My Commandments
As she appoints kings and princes in her own name,
Each with names of blasphemy upon their heads,
So-called holy fathers who shall go into perdition with her...
And yet to those against her, she is the beast.
Yet I tell you the truth, all are deceived. For her power and authority come from the beast, which atop she sits. For she has many names of blasphemy, and all her works are an abomination before The Lord. She is indeed a harlot, and her adulteries are many. Behold, she is also like the great whore who sits upon many waters, who has corrupted the earth with her fornications. And like the false prophet she spews perverse and bitter doctrine, leading many into false worship, even to the committing of fornication with the pagan and the heathen by all her filthy traditions! And like the beast, she has shed the blood of My servants throughout her generations, and has not ceased from opening her mouth to speak great things and blasphemies with a practiced and lying tongue, by which she has deceived many. Therefore, I must take My people out of her! Behold, I shall snatch them from her very breast! For she is also like Babylon, adorning herself with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornications.[3]
Thus says The Lord to the deceptive harlot, to the mother of all fornications: Woe, I say to you! Even three times, woe! For the atheist shall have it far better than you, when the wrath of the great and dreadful God has come! For when they seek forgiveness, they shall surely find it. Yet woe to you who blaspheme The Spirit; from you forgiveness has fled away![4] Behold, destruction waits for you as you continue to tread the wide path![5]
For you believe yourself to be a glorious vine, yet your roots are full of rottenness, a vine of deceit with many tendrils spreading forth abomination! Behold, you see yourself as a sovereign nation, as the mother church, universal, and yet you willingly go into captivity and hold fast in your rebellion! Therefore, I shall make you a desolation and an astonishment, an object of horror and hissing; I shall strip you bare!
And behold, you shall become an island, a most desolate place amidst the nations. No more shall anyone draw near to you, nor shall any attempt to pass through. For all shall keep their distance for fear of your punishment. Every traveler shall go roundabout, horrified at the smoke of your burning.
For thus says The Lord: I have set you apart for judgment! I have separated you out for death, for sorrow and for famine, until the fire of My wrath consumes you! For you have caused My beloved to depart from Me; you have turned them aside from The Way! You have caused them to trust in fables and to put their hope in lies and false visions, in worthless things![6] The Truth is not in you, and from The Life you are far removed![7]
You have pierced My heart with a hot iron! You have battered and bruised Me, and torn My flesh! My sadness fills the heavens like the unending blackness, My tears cover the earth like the oceans, because of you! My anger wells up within Me like a raging fire, on account of all these you have persecuted and murdered throughout your generations!
Indeed, the cup of My indignation overflows, on account of all you have done and are about to do, says The Lord. And still I sent to you many in My own name, that you might be saved from yourself. Yet you rejected them all, beating some and killing others, casting them out in your pompous rage. You will not turn, and so The Father has declared your end.
WOE TO THE CHURCH CALLED MOTHER!
WOE TO YOU AND YOUR APPOINTED LEADERS!
WOE TO YOU AND ALL YOUR “HOLY FATHERS”![8]...
WOE TO THE CHURCH CALLED ROMAN AND CATHOLIC!
WOE TO THE CHURCH FULL OF DEAD MEN’S BONES![9]...
For I have prepared a great fire, and behold, it is already kindled,
And you, along with all who cleave to you, shall surely be cast into it![10]...
SAYS THE LORD."

I agree, visuals please 😊
Hello you three. Thanks for the know your church class. It is very informative. I however think that it would have been even better if when you mention that part you'd have the video cut off to show the part in reality because many of us may have an intrllectual understanding of it but not the physicality of the different parts. Most probably we could not find it in any given church to safe our lives. It would be helpful to know what we are looking at or looking for if we were asked.
The running joke about Fr. Mike Schmitz always makes me laugh. Your should invite Fr. Schmitz to the show. It would be an overload to have two gorgeous priests (Fr. Pagano and Fr. Schmitz) but I am willing to endure it!
Fr. Pagano would have to shave his beard for that to make the sides even 😂
Agree!!
YES AMEN I SAY!
@John ... or Fr Schmitz may need to grow his out, as he's done so well in the past.
We are on God's time-line after all... :-)
I always learn something from these guys. Keep it up!!!
Hello Beautiful
Watching from hospital as I'm recovering from surgery. What a great way to pass my time, without having to strain my eyes or back
@Steph F thanks heaps. Nothing serious, just very painful.
Praying for complete healing for you.
I found these guys while I was in the hospital. Praise God for the great smile they put on our faces!❤
Praying for you!
@@MsLovieGirl thank you so much...what a wonderful family of God, I have
Awesome episode! I enjoy watching this every week. Watching from Indiana
I miss you guys live...teaching catching to 6th graders...they have no souls!🤣🤣🤣🤣🍺 See yall at 7pm God Be with you!
Loved this video. Learned a lot. You guys are great. Thank you!!
Lots of facts and interesting information which alas was never part of my catechism class( along time ago) . Thanks again for doing this for us.
My understanding of the baldacchino was it was not a symbolic, but a utilitarian structure. In the centuries past, large churches and cathedrals were not really airtight (think of a barn), meaning birds would nest inside and fly around, dropping as birds will with out regard to the sacred. Thus, the baldacchino to keep the birds from defiling the altar.
Correct me if I am wrong I learned that the steps leading to the Tabernacle are usually three steps or in three sections - if it is a very high altar - representing the thrice Holy God, Holy Holy Holy.
hi guys very informative! Just to let Fr. Rich know SSTs Peter and Paul in Trenton NJ which closed some years back had some awesome sacred adornments you might be interested since you are building a church .Maybe the Bishop of Trenton could cut you a deal lol.Also if God so Graced me with a lot of money I would graciously fund your Church!
I heard the sink in the sacristy mentioned but no explanation. The sacrarium is a very important part of the sacristy and many would have been very interested to know its reason for being there!
Greetings from Belfast Northern Ireland ☘️
Quite thankful we're moving back to more traditional church designs and ornamentation since styles from the mid-20th century. These lost the deep meaning of church architecture by designing towards greater emphasis on "a community gathered around the table for the feast" instead of replicating the Temple, a ship, a cross, and most importantly, leading the faithful to the foot of Calvary at the altar.
Hi guys, do you offer financial assistance for the Esto Vir expedition. It sounds great for my husband but I’m not sure we can afford that right now.
Watching from Ireland,
I'm so glad I found this talk show. I listen on my 30 min drive to work. Your topics are so interesting and your personalities are awesome !! I've learned so many things about my Catholic faith. Thank you.
Our local parish is in the process of building a new church so this video will be interesting and informative. Thank you!
Around the 7:00 - minute mark: "The Stone" or "The Rock" ... St. Peter was unhewn as well as he denied Jesus thrice ... a "broken" or "unpolished" man who was saved by his works and faith in Jesus. Might be ...

Thanks RDC, I'm eatin' here and now there's minestrone all over the table via my nostrils 😂
I'm having a hard time finding valuable meaningful work. I would like the Vatican and the Catholic Church to start employing their members and The Business of the church which is agriculture.
How about the audience hall partially in the Vatican "shaped like a snake"?
I was going to ask the same. I knew someone else had to have asked first.
That place is despicable!!!
I once I thought the Tabernacle should be on a hydraulic elevator to be lifted high above the crucifix and lowered at the time of communion so it needn't be locked at any time. I considerate sacrilegious to lock up Jesus. I call it the Ascension Tabernacle to represent Jesus Ascension; the coming down of the Heavenly City of God and Mary being the ladder which brought Jesus to the world.
Interesting. Too bad you didn’t show images of the parts of a Church. Thanks
Very Informative Show! Aloha Boyz!
Much appreciated!
The Liturgy Guys have some great podcasts about church architecture if anyone is interested in checking that out.
Great info.
I'm totally confused. I just watched another show hosted by a Franciscan Priest. He the only reason to go to confession is when I have a mortal sin. He also said that all of my venial sins have been forgiven by me going to communion at Mass on Sunday. IS THIS TRUE???????????????????????? I'm sorry but growing up in catholic school, this is not what I've been taught.
It is true that venial sins - and *only* venial - are absolved during the holy Mass. That's the purpose of the Confiteor (I confess, to Almighty God...) during the Penitential rite at the beginning of Mass.
Always enjoy this show!
22:33 hey maaan, that's my wedding shoe! :)
“Bah-troomz” 😂😂😂love you guys
I love going to the Cathedral Basilica of St Louis. It is amazing!
Hello Beautiful
❤️
I just discovered you guys, your RUclips channel and podcast. I love it! You guys are hilarious. Thank you for all the great info. I look forward to deepening my faith.
Great information, but as others have suggested, please have visuals for things you are describing. Additionally, it would be really great if you had chapters in your videos to quickly find or backtrack to a topic.

NARTHAX! (Did I spell that right?)
Haha! It's N-a-r-t-h-e-x, see the comment from @The Archivist below
24:00 - Pews were introduced into the church post-reformation to aid the faithful because the sermons had to be longer (to fully explain the significance of a certain feast / the liturgy itself). It was during this time that sermons, though not officially part of the liturgy, were more and more encouraged. It wasn’t a willy nilly introduction after the reformation.
I'm here for the bobble heads
I wish I knew how to send you pictures of churches in the Archdiocese of Denver. There are really cool parishes that can demonstrate the areas of a church that you’re talking about.
What Saint is venerated at St. Elizabeth in Palm Coast? I never knew a relic had to go in a stone during construction!
Hey Ryan. As a TLM parishioner, most of my time is spent on my knees, not sitting on the pew!
I go to TLM too :)

@Helen Todd he's looking for St Anthony's relic. It's lost.
Thank you! A very interesting episode.
Thanks, I learned so much today. I appreciate this new understanding.
Hello Beautiful
Thank God you guys are Verrrrrrrry Funny good show
You guys are silly 😜
O for a Floor Plan suitably labelled!
no pictures ? 🙁
Thanks guys for that 🛐✝️
So when they sell those Catholic Churches, are ghe altars sold with them???
There are decommissioning ceremonies for altars if they are not simply moved and if one sells blessed objects they cease to be blessed (and it would be simony besides).
@@LostArchivist Are you saying that selling or purchasing items that were once consecrated to a Church that was closed is simony? The definition of simony is the purchase of ecclesiastical privileges. I am asking for clarification because sometimes I see these things are for sale in antique shops and I find them beautiful. Once I even saw an entire confessional booth and an empty reliquary.
What time does this shindig start?
5:30pm CST. Blessings!
Take it to the Alter
Your mean Altar? I believe the one you mention here means to change even though, it can apply too since we go to church to be changed!
@@maishayangu9216 I go to church to Rock n Roll
Thank you again for another great episode! And Ryan Anthony Dellacrosse, love the shoes. :)
