EPISCOPAL DECREE
Dear Beloved in Jesus Christ Brothers and Sisters!
Since day 10th April A.D. 2014 in our Cathedral has been present Novus Ordo Mass in "Ad-Orientem". It means that celebrant has been face to the East (to the Tabernacle).
According to your calls, dear Faithful, for improve our unity in Jesus Christ I decided to change the liturgy arragment for normal, Ordinary Form of Roman Rite, as standard rite of the liturgy in our Cathedral and Saint Francis of Assisi virtual Diocese. It means that Mass of Pope Paul VI, called "Novus Ordo" will be celebrated at altar which is faced to the people, not to the East. It means that celebrant will be faced to the gathered attendants. Language of the liturgy stays unchaned - all services in Ordinary Form of Roman Rite are celebrated in English language.
Additionally, to remind all of the Faithful that real body and blood of our Savior Jesus Christ are present in Real Life, and to improve our mission to teach how the liturgy looks, we decided to use liturgical tools as decorations on the altar during Masses. It means that all liturgical tools, which are present in real Mass, are also present on our virtual Mass with difference - our tools are only decorations.
We hope this fresh wind of Holy Spirit will help us to grow up in Jesus Christ.
The decree is valid from the time of publication.
Your bishop
+ Raphael Cardinal Zimer
