Ripropongo un documento già presentato un anno fa, ma ancora di immutata attualità.

Sia Benedetto il Signore and the Holy Father, Benedict XVI, for having re-emerge from the long oblivion The Holy and Divine Liturgy in the Roman Rite of Trent. For three years, thanks to the Motu proprio Summorum Pontificum , in some churches increased souls of every age, know and take part, make the perfect worship to God. Of course, the interest and participation are encouraged by the presence of a stable group, and then the celebration continued. It is symptomatic that this interest was determined, even beyond the pre-existing groups, just by the opportunity to know and participate in the Old Rite, for some others ended up with joy as you discover a treasure discovered, thanks to the liberalization full.
The current record is in many dioceses the lack of celebration, not for lack of stable groups and priests who celebrate the Rite of times, but for the total closure of bishops, priests of religious orders or more denying the use of the Altar to the faithful and pastors thirsty available. This, in addition to distort the sheet to be drawn, the actual demands of the faithful renders inoperative the flow of Grace that would also allow many other people to approach with joy and spiritual benefits to the rite itself, by virtue of a greater presence ( possible in resources, but not denied in their operation) is also in celebration of the Extraordinary Form. In fact, lasciare - come viene suggerito - la promozione della stessa all’iniziativa dei singoli, che sistematicamente trovano ostacoli insormontabili negli assoluti divieti frapposti, di fatto significa permettere sì una cosa Santa, ma non promuoverla in alcun modo.
Rappresentiamo quindi la sentita necessità che venga paternamente disposta, accanto al Rito Ordinario, una celebrazione domenicale in Vetus Ordo almeno in ogni diocesi , nella località che risulti più ricettiva, mentre, a Roma Caput mundi , che ne vengano estese le celebrazioni domenicali presso le quattro Basiliche e quella di S. Croce in Gerusalemme; il che risponderebbe al vivo desiderio di molti fedeli, which could not fail to attract additional service experience has shown, and the intrinsic necessity, ontological, substantial Gregorian Rite of Flame is it alive and everlasting in place, and not just in words, though they may be auguste. The presence of the personal parish of St. Trinita dei Pellegrini is a blessing, but while well attended-it-is not easily accessible by many, young and old, who live in a city as large and heavy traffic from Rome.
Also, since you can not love what you do not know, and also to enable a more informed and participatory attendance is necessary to promote il Rito Gregoriano anche attraverso iniziative mirate, quali Conferenze e momenti formativi a cura dei gruppi stessi e dei loro Sacerdoti o presso le stesse strutture in cui avvengono le celebrazioni, che attualmente risentono di una presenza spesso strettamente limitata al momento della celebrazione stessa, senza nessun altro 'spazio' di incontro e/o di formazione o anche presso altre strutture individuabili nella Diocesi: Seminari, Facoltà Teologiche, Corsi per catechisti, ecc. Altrimenti come si può pensare di eliminare, sia pure gradualmente, il presente iato generazionale, che non è soltanto un fatto culturale o Liturgico, ma anche Catechetico?
Per questo occorre parlare dell’Antico Rite: there is a preliminary to the celebration mystagogy, which certainly would make it possible to remove many heavy (and only existing) prejudices.
There is also a false problem: that of Latin seen as an obstacle. The speech is preposterous, because while some young people still studying, while there is no doubt that those who are not familiar with the texts of the sublime untranslatable parts of the venerable Vetus Latina, the buy-and-fast enough along the way, with the attendance, even missals damage because the two versions, Latin-Italian side. Moreover, have the deficiency, the current moments 'Training' in the above mentioned. Also it would be enough to explain that in the Roman Missal under the title "Under Actionem " is superimposed on the Communicantes of the Canon of the action. The fee is then implemented more than a prayer recited. The action to which it refers is of course the sacrifice and as the Mass is the discount hinc et nunc of the Sacrifice of the Cross, in this sense, the understanding of words and uses language that the priest is secondary: you can participate in 'offering of sacrifice without feeling very well or understand words. Just know that what happens at the altar. Create shocked then to hear people, Sisters also, say for example: "I did not understand at that Mass no." It makes one wonder, but they know what is the Mass? A trivial example but in point: who attends a football game does not need words to participate ... Sometimes the words become a hindrance than a help.
Our parents knew that when the priest bows over the host and the chalice over the consecration, say the Lord's words - and nothing else - and the miracle is accomplished. They did not think that it was necessary hear the words - which on the other hand are simply divine and are whispered, not to trivialize the sacred and solemn great - because they take effect. It is a concession to modern positivistic mentality to believe that something exists or takes effect only when you see, hear, and so on. The priest recites the canon silently, both out of respect to God, because even if he acts "in persona Christi is always unworthy of such honor and power, is to leave room for faith of those present, that this will not be distracted or by the tone of voice or language, or from any other human fault, and can be immersed in worship, only attitude possible and open to the "transformation" transutanziante wrought by the Lord at such a high and really "terrible". Understanding, as well as participation - which is not actuosa only when it involves a 'role' to be performed or a 'doing' material - grow up with the mystery and then dive into the ever more knowledge of the Lord and assimilation of his grace, more and more He 'configure'.
In general, the difficulties seem camped liturgists who abhor Latin for bias. Rather, why not reintroduce it in seminaries and pontifical faculties, even in those where there was? Velle est posse .
is very painful, by all of us, the reality of us locked up in a ghetto, with no community spirit, while in the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ as God's people, should be the fullness of communion because it is an icon of Sts. Trinity, 'Place' of communion and communication countless lives and revitalizing, what should our communities, whether large or small. We believe that both the quality and not the number to make a difference, then that is the Real Presence in the Liturgy and Life of Lord Born Dead risen and ascended into heaven, and His Spirit 'sent' to the Church at Pentecost, for us and for our salvation and that of many who welcomed him " But to those who did accept him he gave power to become children of God, to those who believed in his name, who were not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man but of God were generated "(John, Prologue 12-13).
catches us, painful to a question: why in the Church are 'sent' to evangelize groups of all kinds, while those associated with the Vetus Ordo are stifled even in the bud?
