I am 66 years old. Last year i was baptised, i have always know that we should not recive the lord in our hand. Thank you, for reminding the world. Hello from France 😇
(the book of truth) Don't say they aren't true, answer what they contain: Pope Francis is a false prophet, he subtly allows deadly sins, Pope Francis is a Freemason, how do you not know them? Bishop athanasius
God Bless Bishop Schneider what a wonderful and reverent man!!! We need more like him in our church!! God Bless Father Pacwa!!! Another wonderful and Holy man!
Those of us that were taught “the real” faith could not understand WHY the communion in the hand was ever practiced! I was taught what Bishop Schneider is talking about because this is what we knew!!!! It’s nothing new, just not generally taught!!
Yes, but although he is right in some things Schneider has now come out against Vatican II, claiming it has errors. So Schneider will probably have to be excommunicated in the future. Now Schneider is claiming he is the true magisterium of the church, so he will probably have to be excommunicated, like his buddy Lefebvre.
As an ordinary person. I believed that our hands are not consecrated to touch the Holy Eucharist. It must be received by tounge. Lord Jesus forgive us our Sins.😢
If they knew the crimes committed against Our Lord, then why don’t you convene and stop this? Paix Christi! P.S. I’ve been a Eucharist minister for ages and I DO take this very seriously. We must stop allowing the abuses against Our Lord, Jesus Christ in the blessed sacrament of the altar!
FYI - Jesus never used a Communion rail himself, nor did his disciples. In fact, I don't know of any ancient churches that give indications of having Communion rails.
When I made my first Holy Communion, the next year the rails where gone! I felt so cheated of the full experience of receiving our Lord, even as a child I knew something was wrong and missing!
Same with me. In 1978 the pastor at my church said NO to communion in the hand. I received on my knees on the tongue. Then the following year he was gone and the new priest was all about it.
It was so painful to see the First Communicants of 2021 receive in the hand while standing. I could not look. I have receive in the tongue for years and just walk away when the priest in some churches refused to give communion in the tongue in this so-called pandemic. Lately, I receive kneeling as well. I thank Jesus that my parish priest has always allowed communion in the tongue. To Jesus thru Mary. Always.
We must pray fervently to the Holy Trinity for the return of the communion rails in our Churches so we can kneel and receive Holy Communion on our tongues. Praise God and beg Him that this must start soon.
Many people cannot physically kneel because of mobility problems,eg. arthritis in the knees. They would therefore have to receive Communion while standing. There are many people with this disability.
@@m.j.mcilroy5470so then we make exceptions for those people, just like how people in wheelchairs need to use ramps. As for the rest of us though, we kneel just like we take the stairs.
@@m.j.mcilroy5470 I myself atte nd Holy Mass at my local SSPX church and there are elderly who are unable to kneel but they still receive the Holy of Holies, the Sacred Host, on the tongue, from the cleansed and consecrated hands of one of our validly ordained priests with a server holding the paton under the chin of the reciprocant. Thanks be to God, the Holy of Holies is never desecrated and abused in our church because it is a Roman Catholic Church unlike the New Order churches which do not have the Catholic faith in them. They are merely buildings devoid of God 😢
Before Vatican II, in 1962, we were taught that only the consecrated hands of an ordained priest should touch the Holy Eucharist. To me, that would mean there should be no lay ministers of the Eucharist (EME's).
You are perfectly correct Patz13. Eucharistic ministers are a sacrilige. It is a case of doing something bad that something good may result. This is never allowed. ONLY the consecrated hands of the priest should EVER touch the Blessed Sacrament. It was always thus before vatican 2. May God restore us back to proper reverence for the Most Holy Sacrament.
In the past, you are correct. However, in an emergency especially when someone was close to death, Holy Viaticum or Communion could be taken to the emergency by a layman Also, although extraordinary ministers of the Holy Eucharist may be over used at Mass, there are many nursing homes, hospitals and homes with shut ins that have the Holy Eucharist brought regularly to the faithful; sometimes daily, where the shortage of priests would mean this would be impossible and many of the faithful would not receive any sacrements. Also the rectories are called when the Sacrement of the Sick may seem necessary. Many Catholics may have died without this Sacrement of eternally great importance. Although I agree with you in general and in the need to honor Jesus, but remember Jesus broke the bread and handed it to His disciples. In this time of great mercy the privilege of lay people taking Jesus to the sick and elderly may be an extraordinary gift of God to us.
@Sterling Crowne Yes there were. They were referred to as "Presbyters". Even now in our day, in certain non-English speaking countries they are still formally referred to that way, priests are. 😊
Sterling Crowne You are confusing the universal priesthood of believers with the ministerial priesthood that is aquired by the laying on of hands. Why are you bringing up celibacy? No one in this thread has brought it up.
It is no wonder why many Catholics find it hard to believe in Jesus Christ, whenyou see how casually we treat Christ's real body and blood in the Eucharist. Ifwe are serious about faith in Christ, don't expect Him to increase your faithwhen you treat the Eucharist without reverence.
Rudy Dagnello Catholics find it hard to believe in Jesus Christ? What are you talking about? If they find it hard to believe then they're not Real Catholics.
I'm just doing what the church teaches. In the end if there is a lack of reverence it is the bishops and cardinals who are at fault not the sheep who try their best
@@jackcousins5530 If the Eucharist is in the bible perhaps you can do it as the bible says it to be done rather than what the church teaches? After all where did the church get the Eucharist from?
Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta was asked What is it in the world which most bothered her?? Without blinking an eye she said .. "People receiving Holy Communion in the hand. Instead of directly on the tongue"!! .. THAT DID IT FOR ME!! THANK YOU JESUS!! I ONLY RECEIVE OUR LORD ON THE TONGUE!
But she also said it didn't matter what religion you belong to. She was an indifferentist and would have been condemned as a heretic and pre-vatican two times.
SmithsnMoz Mother Theresa is certainly entitled to her opinions. But an opinion is still just an opinion. It is NOT official Church teaching. Make no mistake; I love and admire Saint Mother Theresa. But that does not mean I agree with everything she ever said while she was on earth.
@@pjsmith4369 Absolutely wrong and heretical. Anyone who calls himself a Catholic must adhere to every point of Catholic teaching and Catholic dogma, otherwise he is an apostate from the Catholic faith. If you disagree with Catholic dogma or have your own opinion, you are saying that you know better than our Lord, which is blasphemous. "It [the Holy Roman Church] condems, rejects and anathematizes all who think opposed and contrary things, and declares them to be aliens from the Body of Christ, which is the Church." --Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence, 1441, ex cathedra "[H]e who dissents in even one point from divinely received truths has most truly cast off the faith completely, since he refuses to revere God as the supreme truth and proper motive of faith." --Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum, 1896 That there is no salvation outside the Church is a Catholic dogma, and therefore, anyone who acknowledges freedom of religion or, even worse, declares that "I love all religions," as Mother Teresa did, is leading hundreds of millions of people into eternal flames. "With the admonition of the apostle that 'there is one God, one faith, one baptism' may those fear who contrive the notion that the safe harbor of salvation is open to persons of any religion whatever. They should consider the testimony of Christ Himself that 'those who are not with Christ are against Him,' and that they disperse unhappily who do not gather with Him. Therefore 'without a doubt, they will perish forever, unless they hold the Catholic faith whole and inviolate.' --Pope Gregory XVI, Mirari Vos, 1832
Teracerus Seferinis I was referring to receiving Communion in the hand. I think your response should be directed to @ Will Weigand. I am not familiar with what he accuses Mother Theresa of saying. I have never heard of her saying such a thing. But what is interesting is that she has been declared a Saint by the Roman Catholic Church. How do you square that with your long comment?
paula proulx I apologise; I thought you were referring to Mother Teresa's promotion of religious indifferentism, a heresy. As is clear from what I cited, one ceases to be a Catholic if he dissents from just one point of Catholic teaching or dogma. This applies to "popes" as well -- one cannot be the head of a body he is not a member of. St. Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice, II, 30: “This principle is most certain. The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope, as Cajetan himself admits (ib. c. 26). The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member; now he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian (lib. 4, epist. 2), St. Athanasius (Scr. 2 cont. Arian.), St. Augustine (lib. De great. Christ. Cap. 20), St. Jerome (contra Lucifer.) and others; therefore the manifest heretic cannot be Pope.” St. Francis De Sales (17th century), Doctor of the Church, The Catholic Controversy, pp. 305-306 : “Now when he [the Pope] is explicitly a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church…” The heresies of several of our last "popes" are numerous, clear and public, but it would suffice to say that "canonizing" a heretic is enough. In fact, Antipope Bergoglio is guilty of exactly the same heresy spread by Mother Teresa. And many others. Thus, the Seat of Peter is vacant.
I don’t even know how I ended up on this video but I will never again take communion on the hands. Thank you for this... I will be praying for reparation.
Dont believe everything you're told! The disciples sat around the kitchen table and received the body and blood of christ. No golden plates and golden cups, only simplicity. VANITY OF VANITIES!!!!!
The apostles were bishops, bishop recieve with their own hand. Further, the last supper was not the sacrement of the mass. Also,we do not know whether the apostles recieved in the hand or not.
Where did you get that idea Jeanne? It is not in the gospels! and even if they did, the apostles where bishops, bishops and priests can take communion in the hand. Lastly, it wasn't the mass so it is not a rule for how the mass should be done.
+Jeanne McCarthy There is absolutely ZERO evidence in Scripture that the Apostles received Holy Communion 'in the hand'. There is no account in the Gospels which states that Christ placed Holy Communion in the hands of the apostles. The words "take and eat" (in reference to the Last Supper) is the same greek word that is used in (John 20:22) which says "receive the Holy Spirit". In the context of the Last Supper it means "to take in the mouth", "to receive what is offered". - And there is only ONE historical document (THAT IS SPURIOUS - taylormarshall.com/2011/01/did-church-fathers-practice-communion.html) which is peddled by modernists who claim the early Church practiced 'Communion in the hand" (and as I stated the document is spurious). ALL the rest of the Church Fathers only ever mention receiving Holy Communion directly on the tongue. So I guess 'what was good enough fro Christ and His Apostles' isn't good enough for you!
Well said. He is awesome. Just like the true Catholic Church and true Catholic faith is awesome. Jesus Christ, our Lord and savior, our holy redeemer is awesome. And needs to be treated and handled with respect and honor. Thank goodness this interview was done on EWTN. They should be covering more of the reverence and devotion much needed by our Catholics to Jesus in the holy Eucharist. +
@@AnnetteMurphyger Well, Annette, Paul does refer to himself as being the Father of those he evangelized and/or trained in the faith. And various followers of the Lord in Scripture are called "holy," and "holy ones," including the high priest (exp.: Aaron, in Psalm 102). Combining the two titlular discriptors is appropriate, if the position fits.
He talks a good game, but now he is going down the road of schism. He has declared that Vatican II had errors. So Schneider appears to be going to the SSPX and becoming a schismatic. Its a shame, he seemed so good. But when any bishop pretends he is above the magisterium, he becomes like a mad dog.
Yes! Amen! I went to communion and the host broke in pieces and some fell on the floor and I didn't stop to look for him.My sin! But now I won't receive in the hand again.Always on my tongue.
@Joseph Beausigne I’m sorry but that information is not accurate. You won’t find that info in any documents of the second Vatican council. It is tolerated, but is not the right way to receive Jesus. This is the reason why it was accepted by Paul Vl. SACRED CONGREGATION FOR DIVINE WORSHIP, Letter “En reponse a la demande,” to presidents of those conferences of bishops petitioning the indult for communion in the hand, 29 May 1969: Acta Apostolicae Sedis 61 (1969) 546-547; Notitiae 5 (1969) 351-353. In USA was accepted on June 17, 1977.
Bumble Bee I agree1000 percent PLEASE let’s go back to traditional mass w kneelers e reverence to recieve the The precious body of our lord Jesus Christ Amen
i may be the new martin lurher .i challenge any of these arsehole bishops to a debate.shove your dogmas up your dirty arses.you dont fool me,nor many millions of others.
I prefer the TLM. But if you have a good Novus Ordo said by a good priest, that is almost as good. It is the lack of faith in our priests that is the real problem. You can always tell when they don't really believe all that the church teaches. It shows in their slapdash masses. It is not the form of the mass that is important, it is the attitude the priest brings to the mass.
My journey into wanting communion on the tongue started when I read somewhere that Voltaire, who, I read was an avowed atheist, said to one of his Catholic friends.. that if he truly believed that Our Lord was in there Eucharist that we would be crawling up in reverence to receive him. That I've statement got me thinking and actually looking at how I was receiving our Lord, not only where my heart was, but how it was offered in my church. I will now not receive in my hand anymore. Period. Voltaire was right...an atheist was right!!!!!
There's an interesting upshot to that realization, though, and I would love to hear your thoughts on it. First, I am a devout Catholic that has recently started receiving on the tongue, kneeling, exclusively. But, here's my thought. If Voltaire was right, then why are we NOT approaching the alter kneeling, or laying prostrate, or, even better, not receiving at all because we are not, and never will BE worthy until He makes us holy in the hereafter? Obviously, we can't NOT receive it at all because that goes against the wishes of the Lord Himself! But between receiving it irreverently and not receiving it at all out of TOTAL reverence, there is a compromise. Now, you and I both believe that the best compromise is on the tongue, but the mother Church herself has decided that on the hand is also acceptable. Now, if we both admit that we as humans are not worthy to receive Him, and nothing WE do can make us so, then we have to aknowledge that on the tongue doesn't MAKE us worthy any more than in the hand. We can never be FULLY reverent by actions. With that in mind, isn't it fair to say that, as the Church has decreed in the hand to be okay, isn't it then appropriate for we, the obedient Faithful, to then accept that what the Church blesses as officially and morally acceptable?
@@jamestouchette859 You are aware that historically the enemies of God used to have to go to.great lengths to obtain hosts and holy water etc.to obscenely. desecrate Now they just to pop in 5 mins before communion queue up, accept it in the hand and pocket it. No one cares. Ironically it was gnostic mass practitioners absolute obsession with Catholic sacraments, that l remembered when trying to decide what kind of Christian was the correct kind to be. They knew.
@@jamestouchette859 I don't agree with your appreciation of the Church blessing and considering communion on the hand okay and morally acceptable. The Church gave permission not a blessing. Quoting Memoriale Domini (1969): [Pope Paul VI] judged that the long received manner of ministering Holy Communion to the faithful should not be changed. The Apostolic See therefore strongly urges bishops, priests, and people to observe zealously this law, valid and again confirmed, according to the judgment of the majority of the Catholic episcopate, in the form which the present rite of the sacred liturgy employs, and out of concern for the common good of the Church. If the contrary usage, namely, of placing Holy Communion in the hand, has already developed in any place, in order to help the episcopal conference fulfill their pastoral office in today's often difficult situation, the Apostolic See entrusts to the conferences the duty and function of judging particular circumstances, if any. They may make this judgment provided that any danger is avoided of insufficient reverence or false opinions of the Holy Eucharist arising in the minds of the faithful and that any other improprieties be carefully removed. The co-author of Memoriale Domini also wrote (The reform of the liturgy 1948-1975, Annibale Bugnini, page 644): Along with the instruction, those requesting the indult [to receive in the hand], received a letter explaining the regulations, conditions, and rite of the new manner of receiving communion: ... 5. Whatever procedure is adopted, care must be taken not to allow particles of the Eucharistic bread to fall or be scattered. Care must also be taken that the communicants have clean hands.
@@pablobustos3439 you don't have to agree with it. You DO have to trust the Magisterium of the Church and surrender humbly and obediently do what she decides in matters of faith and proper exercising thereof. If the Church has found that reception in the hand is valid, then you don't get to declare otherwise. You DO, however, have the right and obligation to receive on the tongue if you justifiably believe it to be the duly relevant course to follow. I agree with you that it is proper to receive on the tongue. But I won't let my will supplant the authority given by God to the Church in such matters.
Communion on the knees and in our tongue, is more than just good "Etiquette" as some claim. It is a matter of respecting the first commandment. It is a matter of giving God all of our devotion and respect. It is about having a healthy fear and respect for our Lord Jesus. Present in the consecrated Host. Which after consecration by a validly ordained Catholic Priest, it then becomes the real Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ. To Him all the Honor and Glory, now and forever. AMEN.
I was once asked to be a minister and give out Eucharist. I agreed, during one Eucharist I was left on my own. There was a long queue of people as the priest in the middle of the church finished. I couldn't understand. And always when I was touching our Lord I felt a deep touch somewhere in my heart. I understood I should not do this and stopped. Laity are not prepared and are not sacrified to do this!!! I have seen women in tights giving our Holy Communion, a man in short pants, another woman in kind of a skull on her blouse etc. another women giving out Holy Communion as if she were a priest etc. It is not right. And most horrifying - I have witnessed children First Holy Communion standing and on a hand. I am asking how those children will have a respect to Holy Communion???
The problem with the argument of the little fragments (really, microscopic), is that it is impossible NOT to happen. For when the priest breaks the large host, it has been experimentally proven (using high definition, high speed video photography) that very fine fragments of the host explode out from the host when broken. These super fine fragments fall on the patten, the altar cloth, and the floor in front of the altar. Those pieces, invisible to the naked eye, are then walked on by the priest as he moves to the communicants, and those on the cloth covering the altar are eventually put through a washing machine. (The priest himself washes his hands of fragments after Communion.) How, then, are we to be worried about microscopic fragments on our hands, when priests themselves are not worried about walking on fragments, or washing fragments away in a washing machine? As someone on Catholic Answers once responded, once the host is broken down in the acids in your stomach, the microscopic pieces cease to be the body of Christ, because it loses the very nature of the sacramental that it had possessed (which includes the symbol under which the real body and blood of Christ are presented).
As a convert to catholisism l truly believe in the real presence of our Lord in the consecrated Host. As devout christians we should receive Our Lord devoutly 😢 NO TO COMMUNION IN THE HAND
I was baptised this year from being a complete non believer! The Lord placed it on my heart to receive on the tongue while kneeling. It is the only way I've ever receives Holy Communion. Laus Deo Semper.
When my son had his first communion a lady who was going to give comunion to other people..she fell and dropped all the hosts..and the priest didn't do nothing..all bunch of ladies pick all the hosts quick...by the way everyone take rhe bread on their hands..but that event was awful...i imagined our Lord on the ground again..full of blood and tortured....we are in a great crisis .. spiritual inside the church i noticed that many people take the bread and almost no.one confess...
So I guess you are assuming that throughout the entire 2000 years of the Catholic Church's existence, no one priest has ever tripped and dropped the chalice and hosts went flying. This only happens to lay Eucharistic females.
paula proulx ...I understood their comment to be pointing out the tradgedy that a priest, who is in the person of Christ, didn't do anything about God falling on the dirty floor. By the priest staying put, it leads the flock to believe it isn't a big deal. And because Christ is a male, therefore it makes better sense for a male to distribute the body of Christ who was born a man. And even better sense that it be only the priest.
BitsyBeth I have no more energy or time to give my opinion to those who refer to themselves as the true " Traditional Catholics ". It usually never changes anyone's mind and intrudes into my prayer time. I will only say this: are women considered less " holy " to pick up the fallen hosts? Not reverent enough? My uncle was a Ukrainain Catholic Priest. He impressed upon us that priests were not saints. They are human, they sin. But like all of us, they have access to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and, like all of us, they are on a journey to holiness. As far as women in the Catholic Church, you might want to dig a little deeper into the role of women in the early Church. I will leave you with this information: Romans 16:1-2 Romans 151 Corinthians 1 Romans 16:1-2 New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition (NRSVACE) Personal Greetings 16 I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon[a] of the church at Cenchreae, 2 so that you may welcome her in the Lord as is fitting for the saints, and help her in whatever she may require from you, for she has been a benefactor of many and of myself as well. Footnotes: (a) a minister Check it out for yourself. Yours in Christ, Paula
Holy Church’s understanding of what the Lord gave us in the Eucharist deepened over time brought us to a reverence that needed appropriate physical gestures of humility. Now that much of the reverence for the Eucharist has been undermined, over decades, people also don’t know why they should adopt positions of humility in the presence of the Eucharistic Lord. As the practice of standing and receiving in the hand spread, a vicious circle was created which further eroded reverence in congregations. AND with it, MANY abuses & desecration, both purposely & inadvertently ( particles and crumbs being brushed to the ground and stepped upon, and each and every particle is the ENTIRE BODY of Jesus Christ!) I hope people will on their own choose to receive Holy Communion only on the tongue. We need more kneeling, more Holy Communions in the state of grace, received directly on the tongue, from the consecrated hands of priests. May God bless you ALL...
I remember as a child going to Latin Mass and it felt you were in the real presence of Jesus and in a Sacred place. Now the priest turns his back to the tabernacle and the sacred heart light is on a side wall. There is little reverence in the new mass and communion in the hand is only part of it.
Communion in the hand was/is and remains an indult in the Church. Get down on your knees my friends, and receive a little persecution and preform a penance for the KING!!!
Thank you bishop Schneider for this beautiful explanation on receiving our Lord in Holy Communion. Unfortunately we are not given Holy Communion on the tongue due to the virus. We pray for the day when reverence is restored. God bless you and Fr. Pacwa.
I am sorry to hear that you were unable to receive Holy Communion in your church. I was blessed to have been able to receive Holy Communion in my local SSPX church. Even when our local authorities forced our priests to close our church, the priests carried on celebrating the Holy Mass in the garden of their priory, and so we never went without the Holy Mass or receiving the Holy of Holies. God bless Abp Lefebvre and the SSPX.❤
you are the servant of our Lord teach us more and let our holy father be in front line in teaching these church traditions.we should return to our former way of receiving our Lord.
I was an altar boy in the 1960s and remember what a privilege it was to hold the paten underneath the chins of the communicants. It was awe-inspiring to serve at the traditional communion, but it is no more. What a tragedy.
Yes, I was just thinking about that! I served Mass in the 60s as well, and remember holding the patten under each chin. There was so much reverence for the Real Presence then. It is so sad what has happened.
When I served as an alter boy so many years ago if I didnt hold the patten properly at communion time i would be reprimanded after mass...or sometimes corrected by the priest during the reception of the host!
I ALWAYS receive on the tongue now, ever since my mom explained to me the consequences of receiving in the hand. And, I encourage this FULLY! Lets bring back the reverence and the sanctity that was once given to Jesus. Now, in 2020, it seems like right now, the Cardinals and bishops are more concerned about germs than if you might drop Our Lord. Though, when you do receive in the hand, tiny crumbs of the Host drop on our hands and we drop them on the floor by brushing your hands off after receiving in the hand . Send a message
So what. Jesus allowed himself to be washed with the dirty hair of a female sinner. That is worse yet he never told her not to do it. Jesus never said no one could touch him. It is absurd.
I was told by the Priest this morning, that satan was causing me to be disobedient for not receiving Communion on my hand, after being denied Communion on the tongue by the Deacon. Where is the Faith???
I had received communion by mouth and was standing before and the host has dropped to the floor and i immediately pick it up and put it into my mouth and saw the priest smiling on that incident. That was almost two years ago.
@Bennett McCoy not at that time they weren't - Christ had not been Crucified and Resurrected - they were 12 disciples, two of whom would betray him outright, and most of the rest would run and hide.
Never once did I receive Holy Communion in my hand. As an altar boy I held a paton for those receiving Holy Commuion at the altar rail. Now my daughter's nine and told in Catholic school it's ok to either receive in the hand or on the tongue. I felt like beating her principal over the head with my Bible. Lol. Now she wants to be like alllll the other kids and not be singled out. So...with me I always advise her before mass starts on our way to church, it's best to receive on the tongue. What's she do? Receive on the hand. Smh. Same thing with her class when they have mass as a school. Yeah....it starts at home. But the Parish priests and teachers who were brought up like me could do something to sway this abomination........but they won't. But I won't stop telling my daughter how I feel either. Lead by example. Shame.
Homeschool is the way because these schools are not Catholic the best teachers are the parents. It shouldn't be anyone else that dictates the culture of your home. Your traditional and it shouldn't be changed because a teacher said so. I only suggest homeschool because I do it and I know from experience theres no better way these schools teach kids inappropriate behavior as well. God bless.
I love Bishop Athanasius Schneider along with Archbishop Vigano. So few real catholics left in the freemason infiltrated church. God bless Bishop Athanasius Schneider, and may he continue the love and work of God fruitfully forever.
He mentions an excellent point that a lot do not expound upon... we are supposed to give the MAXIMUM amount of ADORATION... standing and receiving Holy Communion on the hand is not & then picking up The entire Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of JESUS Christ with our fingers like we do in common practice of eating a chip is NOT remotely a form of REVERENTIAL ADORATION!!
Galadeth Laernis But we pop the chip into our mouth, don't we? Is that okay? Somebody who receives communion on the hand may be receiving Our Lord much more reverently than someone who receives it by mouth. How can you possibly judge? You do not know what goes on in the mind of people. Also, I don't believe Our Lord, who created us, " We are fearfully and wonderfully made ", would consider our hands unworthy or " dirty ". He made our entire bodies, and who are you to decide which part of our body is better. He handed the Apostles his body, under the species of bread, into their hands.
Our hands are NOT consecrated... a chip & The Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of JESUS Christ are NOT on the same level... and just like Bishop Schneider said, this is NOT about the interior disposition of the person. So I am NOT judging! THIS IS about fragments & particles of Holy Communion of which EACH & EVERY partical or fragment IS the ENTIRE Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of JESUS Christ!
Kneeling down with a veil on and receiving holy communion in the tongue is very important, they should return the communion rails in all catholic churches !
I once saw a man wrote that when he went into the toilet of the car park after Mass, he found...the Sacred Host in the toilet! The consequence of communion in hand!
I have no idea how that Consecrated Host got there to the toilet - if this a true story, which I doubt. However, if it was a Consecrated Host, I would think Jesus could extract Himself, and probably did, from that place, returning the host to its original state - a piece of bread. My point is with all of this 'legalism' being expounded here (something the Lord warned against), Jesus is perfectly capable of leaving any person or place where He isn't truly wanted, or being disrespected, ridiculed, profaned or abused. We can't confine Him to the Host - He is perfectly capable to depart - and thereby de-consecrate - returning the Species to their original nature of bread or wine, even before falling to the floor and being trampled upon, for example and which, I believe, is done most of the time unknowingly. I don't have a problem with Communion in the hand, or with 'Extra Ordinary Ministers', men or women, helping to bring the Lord to their fellow Catholics, either in Church or to the sick and homebound. As long as it is done with the utmost reverence and love for the Lord. I'm a pre-Vatican Council Catholic and have always been in some way involved in some type of lay ministry all my life. I loved the pre-Vatican II Mass and I love the Novus Ordo Mass even more. It is celebrated in language I understand, and, at my parish, it is done with much reverence and respect, and includes the use of professional organ music (songs of the liturgical season), the use of incense and some short Latin prayers and there is no clapping of hands at the end of Mass, to, I suppose, stroke the ego of the musicians, or choir, and acknowledge their 'performance' - they are simply lay ministers contributing their talents to worshiping the Lord and He will reward them.
Our lady of Garabandal, Spain told the children.."many priest and Bishops will fall to perdition, and take many souls with them!"...Lord have mercy on us!
Aaron.....I have read private revelation where the Holy Mother says taking the host in the hand is a sacrilege. I wish I could remember where I read it to share with you, but I read so much private revelation from many seers now, its hard to keep track.
@@lannlann I made my First Holy Communion at age 6, the year of V2. I was taught not to touch the Host with my teeth, and to this day I've never been able to 'chew' It, despite what I see around me. I remember my 6 year old mind knowing how Sacred was the Sacrament I was about to receive, no one had to 'simplify' the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity for me by using the ghastly term 'holy bread.' Faithful priests in Ireland have been challenged by social.Catholic parents who object to their children being taught about a "cannibalistic God." It's time our bishops manned up and insisted on children being instructed properly in the sacrificial mystery of the Eucharist
I agree Jeanette including the mantilla and the proper dress codes for church, avoiding using those shorts, but skirts and dress pants. And the top tanks and low neckline shirts.
I began wearing only long dresses and long skirts and I'm missing a veil to complete the look. The long skirts I have reach to my ankles and blouses close to the forearm the same with the dresses though they're almost at knee-length and cardigan optional and I refuse to wear pants of any kind to church
But we also shouldn't have a Pharisee-like scrupulosity, should someone not go to mass after work if they do not have a change from their work clothes?
We owe our Saviour the highest reverence we can bestow when the Priest raised the Host and then the Wine at the Consecration, by receiving the Host on the hand. We lose that when we receive Communion on the hand.
God bless you Bishop Schneider and greetings and blessings in Christ Jesus to you. Thank you for sharing this most beautiful video dialogue. I agree with you 100%, we need to reinstate the sacredness and solemnness of receiving the holy Eucharist receiving it on the tongue rather than placing it in the hands of other parishioners. I also feel we need to take and reinstate the tridentine Latin Mass as a was originally founded by Christ, and we need to take an abolish the novus ordo Mass which has become very much like the Protestant churches and also the novus Auto Mass and many parishes has become nothing more than a Broadway production would love to hear you speak on the tridentine Mass in comparison to the new novus ordo Mass. Thank you and God bless you always.
Kneeling and on the tongue offers the list possible contangion and proper reverence to the LORD. Now the Churches see closed and the reopening offers only a small number at a time. It is time the rails come back and we get it right both ways.Jesus is fully present in the smallest particle after consecration!How can it be otherwise?Maximum reverence with or without Covid is necessary. It is better to receive the Eucharist reverently after a long time than to expose Him to abuse!
I have witnessed three times in one year here in calif. Where the Eucharist was dropped on the floor. By the recipient ! Also I know of two people from other faiths that have received communion
Bishop Schneider is truly a great man who is taking good care of his flocks. For us ordinary individual who does not know the true essence of love. Must be thankful to bishop who is taking care of us. Please continue to give us gospel that will help us become a good shepherd of the lord.
Why doesn't the pope do something about Holy Communion. Who is he scared of changing it back to where it was? Why aren't the priest bishops doing something about it in their parishes has everyone gone mad?
David Now you are really going off the deep end. Is that supposed to be some sort of joke? Have you done a survey of all Catholic Bishops? I am left to conclude that that is merely your opinion.
Unfortunately many priests don’t believe. And you must know that for consecration to be valid the priest must have the intention to do what the church does ie offer the sacrifice of Jesus to the Father. If the priest no longer believes does he form the intention in his heart and mind. Are the hosts dropping all over the carpet still bread or are they the body blood soul and divinity of Jesus? Are you receiving Jesus or bread? Learn the Catholic faith. The enemy has entered the holy place.
Kimberly...........I have either read or heard in a video the priest does not need to have the intention of the transformation in order for the consecration to take place. Jesus does it himself every mass without the priests mental assistance.
I been going to Latin tridentine masses for 40yrs in south Jersey. What most of you folks know we always received on the tongue.The mass of Paul the 6 The novus ordos u can receive in the hand.I go to the novus ordo sat.eveing and I receive on the tongue .I will not receive in the hand.
This SUBJECT should be discussed closed door by the PRIESTS HIGHER UPS, NOT IN OPEN MEDIA. We don't need whom is the BEST ARGUMENTS but the BEST APPROVED PROCEDURE.
If they think the parishioners are happy..there would be no discussion to be had! We the lay people have the right, after all, we are the body of Christ, to let our bishops know that we want to be more reverent and they are letting us down..but most of all..letting our Lord down!
“ It is legally licit “ This priest admits that, plus that there is no dogma that says that the Eucharist must be received directly on the tongue. This Priest is really giving his own opinion, and the reasons for his opinion. To equate receiving the Eucharist in the hand with eating in a cafeteria is truly an unkind comparison and is in no way valid. Or even eating in the kitchen. We use utensils in the kitchen and we line up in a cafeteria, possibly while chit chatting. There is no sense of receiving anything special in a cafeteria. At Mass, we line up quietly to receive Communion. We bow when we are behind the person receiving Communion. Then when we receive Communion, the Holy Host is held up before us. The Eucharist Minister then says, “ The Body Of Christ “. And we respond “ Amen “, take the Precious Body and Blood of Lord into our hand and put the Host in our mouth in front of the Eucharistic Minister. How does this equate with a cafeteria? If the angels prostrate themselves before God, do you think we should also lie down in front of the Host while we receive Our Lord? By now, in this day and age of science, one must realize that microscopic pieces of the Holy Host are moving around in the air. How do we capture those? Our Lord is Divine and was also completely human while he was on the earth. At the Last Supper, he broke the bread and gave it to his apostles. They were eating with their hands. We know this because they were dipping their food into bowls. Jesus walked over a gave a morsel of food that He had dipped in a sauce and handed it to Judas “ in his hand “. If it was acceptable then and with the first Christians, why is it wrong now? And please do not bother explaining that the apostles were already priests, because they had yet to abandon Jesus at His time of suffering, receive the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and then receive Our Lord’s instructions at His Ascension.
And indult was granted for the u.s.c.c.b.s in the early 1970s because it was believed that it would be a gesture of ecumenism and a way to compromise with our separated brethren and call them back ...also because the prevailing attitude was that we can stand as adults rather than kneel like children because the Church had come of age....the Catholic Church in some dioceses have been since that time losing up to 10 Catholics for every 1 convert. And an indult by definition is to give Apostolic permission for something illicit and against the universal norm and you should read the strict guidelines that are supposed to be followed for the indult from The Holy See to maintain licitness. All which have in one way or the other been ignored....please don't take my word for it do the research. I went from one extreme to the other on this matter Not taking anyone's word for it. Only by search for the Truth!! also read in the Gospel of John Where after our Lord was resurrected Mary Magdeline tried to touch him and his response " Do Not Touch Me for I have not yet ascended..." ..then in just a few paragraphs Our Lord is instructing Saint Thomas to put his finger in his Hand and his Hand in his side.......the difference...One was consecrated the other not.
And at the Last supper......again consecrated Hands (the 12) and the bread being dipped was not the Eucharist. Note who got the dipped bread. The three Things all enemies of the Church focus their undermining, denying and marginalization on are The ministerial Priesthood, The Blessed Virgin and The Real presence. All of which can crush Satan....food for thought. Read Cranmers Godly Orders and you will see a complete parallel between what Thomas Cranmer did in England to dismantle the Mass and belief in the Eucharist and The Systematic implementation of the innovations thrust on the Norvus Ordo Missae of Pope Paul VI.....there is no resemblance between the Actual Mass of Paul VI (promulgated in 1969) and the Mass of the west today
@@malcolmkirk3343 during the approved apparition of Virgin Marry angel gave children Communion. They received it while kneeling, on the tongue. One would assume that God's angel knows how to receive Body of God, right?
@@boem3021 1) Did the angel command them to kneel? Not that I recall from the report. 2) The angel gave them to drink of the cup, as well. Bet you do not think that should be normative, do you? 3) ...Now, this is indeed strange: Since when have angels received the Sacramental Priesthood, such that they should be permitted to give Communion as priests? Do you see any basis for that elsewhere (in scripture, or tradition)? The Church and scriptures have laid out who may give Communion. Is there somewhere an exception to those standards?
Whatever method is used to administer the Eucharist: either in the hands or on the tongue, the person should receive reverently with the belief in the Real Presence (Transubstantiation). We should strive NOT to let preferences divide us!
Here's an idea, Bishop Schneider. Get in line with the teaching of Pope Francis and submit to his teaching in full, as required not only by your vows but by Lumen Gentium 25.
A sacrament contains both the symbol of the body of Christ but also contains the body of Christ and thus is holy. The bible is thus holy because the word is God. And marriage is holy and the seed of both man and woman is holy. And so with eavh sacrament. But our age forgets the holy and both the meaning and the substance of the holy. To the pig nothing is holy. And modern man like pigs regard nothing as holy either in the meaning or in the substance.And those who defile scripture with their own intrrpretation and opinions and self drfile the word of God. Thank you for caring so much. And i am a pastor in the separatist tradition which nobody higher than the individual christian. But you are right ....every part of the host contains the presence of Christ.. and every part of a sacrament is holy and ought to be treated as holy.
I agree! I don't receive communion in the hand. When the pandemic was at it's height, one could only receive it in the hand. I totally was against it but I needed the Eucharist. At one time, even the bishop refused to have me receive the Eucharist orally. It bothers me when I still see people receiving the Eucharist in the hand. I always think, "don't they get it"....,??
St. ARCHANGEL MICHAEL. "Fear not my voice which is the voice of the triune God, who sent me to speak in his holy name for God must be, I not only loved but also respected and obeyed all consecrated and religious. they have not obeyed, they have had and have to pay their debts and mistakes in this life or in purgatory, not counting those who have gone to hell, God does not play nor can hide one behind the other, each is responsible for his actions, words, thoughts and omissions. in the Holy Catholic Church, obedience has always been a very important virtue, esteemed and practiced, but in the latter, is in decline for the rebellion and presumption. All this, work of satan and his demons, as is its seal, which has printed deception and fraud communion in the hand in the Catholic Church and all who give and take are wrong with a false obedience to the church and its hierarchy, because they are the most responsible for all who are committing sacrilege, and have roiled the fervor and devotion and worship the august Sacrament. It is a sacrilege leso that men who have anointed their hands by the Bishop, touch the Sacred Body of Christ with his own hands. The sacred is sacred and the profane is profane, but the devil has gotten them many, that everything is as sacred. And with this wrong teaching, he has lost respect and adoration to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Everything is diabolical plan well prepared for hell. If the faithful and priests they saw with their eyes the face, what happens in every sacrilegious communion of the Body and Blood of Christ, I sure would not. When a priest puts the Sacred Host in the hand of a sinner who does not have them anointed by the ordinary, demons, there are around the priest several who know them gives way, jump for joy and make parties, and they go behind which he has taken in hand, to continue tempting him and deceiving him. And the priest who gave him point somewhat in their favor, for the day they can harass his soul in the particular judgment. And Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is derided in his painful passion, all this, he suffers mystically. And the guardian angels of the priest and the communicant, like all others who are around them with the saints in heaven, weeping sore and ashamed. I Miguel, I am the angel in charge of bringing souls to heaven, who have already finished their purification in purgatory, and in truth I tell you that there are many souls of priests and faithful, who gave and took communion in the hand, pudiendolo have avoided, giving it and receiving it in the mouth, voluntarily and freely without missing obedience ....... "message given on 2 October 2007. Spain to Little Soul.
The main thing about holy communion is that we are in the state of grace. No matter how reverent we are and careful about many details, if we do not “discern the body of Christ”, examine our conscience, confess our sins, we “eat and drink judgment” on ourselves (1 Cor 11).
Here in the USA, there has been a grave loss of the sense of the Divine fullness of Christ in the Holy Eucharist. We are now suffering a great chastisement because of this lack of faith and love for our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. My Jesus Mercy.
+ (Part of receiving Holy Communion worthily is not only being prepared spiritually (being in a state of grace), but RECIEVING it worthily through the respect of the actual sacred species which were consecrated on the altar +) (Without RESPECT, means DIS_RESPECT for Our Blessed Lord alone who remains and is given to us among the sacred species....)
The older tradition is by hand which was done since the early Church. The receiving the host by mouth was developed during the Middle Ages. So it was decided by the Church either way is acceptable. Jesus didn't break the bread and place it upon the tongues of the Apostles during the Last Supper He gave it to them in which they taken the host by their hands and ate.
That is how I feel I communionnin in the hand is the tradition from the time of Jesus. I came into the church in my early thirties 12 years after Vatican 'll. I only ever received communion on the tongue while having to use two sticks before and after hip replacement, once I nearly bit Father's finger off by accident. Go back to the tradition of the early early church. That is Tradition, Pope John who instigated Vatican 'll wanted to open the windows and let the Holy Spirit in. Let it be, and let God be the judge of those who receive disresptfully in the hand.

Communion on the tongue and kneeling down has always been a practice in Tridentine Latin mass.
My church, thankfully has communion rails.
Jesus, forgive us for the sacrileges and negligencies we have committed against you. Amen 🙏
I am 66 years old. Last year i was baptised, i have always know that we should not recive the lord in our hand. Thank you, for reminding the world. Hello from France

I could not agreed more, I feel so rushed at communion when our Lord Jesus is the only reason why I am there in the first place 🙌💝

God Bless Bishop Schneider what a wonderful and reverent man!!! We need more like him in our church!! God Bless Father Pacwa!!! Another wonderful and Holy man!
Those of us that were taught “the real” faith could not understand WHY the communion in the hand was ever practiced! I was taught what Bishop Schneider is talking about because this is what we knew!!!! It’s nothing new, just not generally taught!!
@@helenstacey7925 :
RIGHT.
AMEN
Yes, but although he is right in some things Schneider has now come out against Vatican II, claiming it has errors. So Schneider will probably have to be excommunicated in the future. Now Schneider is claiming he is the true magisterium of the church, so he will probably have to be excommunicated, like his buddy Lefebvre.
Hat der auch Kinder missbraucht?
As an ordinary person. I believed that our hands are not consecrated to touch the Holy Eucharist. It must be received by tounge. Lord Jesus forgive us our Sins.😢
give me back my communion rail! Fire the Eucharistic ministers!
If they knew the crimes committed against Our Lord, then why don’t you convene and stop this? Paix Christi!
P.S. I’ve been a Eucharist minister for ages and I DO take this very seriously. We must stop allowing the abuses against Our Lord, Jesus Christ in the blessed sacrament of the altar!
FYI - Jesus never used a Communion rail himself, nor did his disciples. In fact, I don't know of any ancient churches that give indications of having Communion rails.

When I made my first Holy Communion, the next year the rails where gone! I felt so cheated of the full experience of receiving our Lord, even as a child I knew something was wrong and missing!
Same with me. In 1978 the pastor at my church said NO to communion in the hand. I received on my knees on the tongue. Then the following year he was gone and the new priest was all about it.
It was so painful to see the First Communicants of 2021 receive in the hand while standing. I could not look. I have receive in the tongue for years and just walk away when the priest in some churches refused to give communion in the tongue in this so-called pandemic. Lately, I receive kneeling as well. I thank Jesus that my parish priest has always allowed communion in the tongue. To Jesus thru Mary. Always.
@@GMBYan The parish has to allow reception on the tongue by Cannon Law. If the priest says no, find a different Parish.
We must pray fervently to the Holy Trinity for the return of the communion rails in our Churches so we can kneel and receive Holy Communion on our tongues. Praise God and beg Him that this must start soon.
Thank your Excellency Athanasius Schneider , you're right .Holly Communion must be giving by the Priest ,in the mouth and we should kneel.🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇
Many people cannot physically kneel because of mobility problems,eg. arthritis in the knees. They would therefore have to receive Communion while standing. There are many people with this disability.
@@m.j.mcilroy5470so then we make exceptions for those people, just like how people in wheelchairs need to use ramps. As for the rest of us though, we kneel just like we take the stairs.
@@tvhead7074 Exactly
@@m.j.mcilroy5470 I myself atte nd Holy Mass at my local SSPX church and there are elderly who are unable to kneel but they still receive the Holy of Holies, the Sacred Host, on the tongue, from the cleansed and consecrated hands of one of our validly ordained priests with a server holding the paton under the chin of the reciprocant.
Thanks be to God, the Holy of Holies is never desecrated and abused in our church because it is a Roman Catholic Church unlike the New Order churches which do not have the Catholic faith in them. They are merely buildings devoid of God 😢
Not everyone can kneel. I've had knee replacement, so I can't kneel. I sure wish I could
You heard him. WAKE UP!
Yes the pope and cardinals need to WAKE UP and change the rules otherwise they are at fault not the ones who obey church teaching.
Before Vatican II, in 1962, we were taught that only the consecrated hands of an ordained priest should touch the Holy Eucharist. To me, that would mean there should be no lay ministers of the Eucharist (EME's).
You are perfectly correct Patz13. Eucharistic ministers are a sacrilige. It is a case of doing something bad that something good may result. This is never allowed. ONLY the consecrated hands of the priest should EVER touch the Blessed Sacrament. It was always thus before vatican 2. May God restore us back to proper reverence for the Most Holy Sacrament.
In the past, you are correct. However, in an emergency especially when someone was close to death, Holy Viaticum or Communion could be taken to the emergency by a layman
Also, although extraordinary ministers of the Holy Eucharist may be over used at Mass, there are many nursing homes, hospitals and homes with shut ins that have the Holy Eucharist brought regularly to the faithful; sometimes daily, where the shortage of priests would mean this would be impossible and many of the faithful would not receive any sacrements.
Also the rectories are called when the Sacrement of the Sick may seem necessary. Many Catholics may have died without this Sacrement of eternally great importance.
Although I agree with you in general and in the need to honor Jesus, but remember Jesus broke the bread and handed it to His disciples.
In this time of great mercy the privilege of lay people taking Jesus to the sick and elderly may be an extraordinary gift of God to us.
Think maybe the priests could change it in there own Parrish back to the holy way
@Sterling Crowne Yes there were. They were referred to as "Presbyters". Even now in our day, in certain non-English speaking countries they are still formally referred to that way, priests are. 😊
Sterling Crowne You are confusing the universal priesthood of believers with the ministerial priesthood that is aquired by the laying on of hands. Why are you bringing up celibacy? No one in this thread has brought it up.
It is no wonder why many Catholics find it hard to believe in Jesus Christ, whenyou see how casually we treat Christ's real body and blood in the Eucharist. Ifwe are serious about faith in Christ, don't expect Him to increase your faithwhen you treat the Eucharist without reverence.
Rudy Dagnello Catholics find it hard to believe in Jesus Christ? What are you talking about? If they find it hard to believe then they're not Real Catholics.
christ is not a him.
I'm just doing what the church teaches. In the end if there is a lack of reverence it is the bishops and cardinals who are at fault not the sheep who try their best
@@jackcousins5530 If the Eucharist is in the bible perhaps you can do it as the bible says it to be done rather than what the church teaches? After all where did the church get the Eucharist from?
?
Bishop Athanasius said the Traditional Mass at my church awhile back. God bless him.
Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta was asked What is it in the world which most bothered her?? Without blinking an eye she said .. "People receiving Holy Communion in the hand. Instead of directly on the tongue"!! .. THAT DID IT FOR ME!! THANK YOU JESUS!! I ONLY RECEIVE OUR LORD ON THE TONGUE!
But she also said it didn't matter what religion you belong to. She was an indifferentist and would have been condemned as a heretic and pre-vatican two times.
SmithsnMoz Mother Theresa is certainly entitled to her opinions. But an opinion is still just an opinion. It is NOT official Church teaching.
Make no mistake; I love and admire Saint Mother Theresa. But that does not mean I agree with everything she ever said while she was on earth.
@@pjsmith4369 Absolutely wrong and heretical. Anyone who calls himself a Catholic must adhere to every point of Catholic teaching and Catholic dogma, otherwise he is an apostate from the Catholic faith. If you disagree with Catholic dogma or have your own opinion, you are saying that you know better than our Lord, which is blasphemous.
"It [the Holy Roman Church] condems, rejects and anathematizes all who think opposed and contrary things, and declares them to be aliens from the Body of Christ, which is the Church."
--Pope Eugene IV, Council of Florence, 1441, ex cathedra
"[H]e who dissents in even one point from divinely received truths has most truly cast off the faith completely, since he refuses to revere God as the supreme truth and proper motive of faith."
--Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum, 1896
That there is no salvation outside the Church is a Catholic dogma, and therefore, anyone who acknowledges freedom of religion or, even worse, declares that "I love all religions," as Mother Teresa did, is leading hundreds of millions of people into eternal flames.
"With the admonition of the apostle that 'there is one God, one faith, one baptism' may those fear who contrive the notion that the safe harbor of salvation is open to persons of any religion whatever. They should consider the testimony of Christ Himself that 'those who are not with Christ are against Him,' and that they disperse unhappily who do not gather with Him. Therefore 'without a doubt, they will perish forever, unless they hold the Catholic faith whole and inviolate.'
--Pope Gregory XVI, Mirari Vos, 1832
Teracerus Seferinis I was referring to receiving Communion in the hand. I think your response should be directed to @ Will Weigand. I am not familiar with what he accuses Mother Theresa of saying. I have never heard of her saying such a thing.
But what is interesting is that she has been declared a Saint by the Roman Catholic Church. How do you square that with your long comment?
paula proulx I apologise; I thought you were referring to Mother Teresa's promotion of religious indifferentism, a heresy.
As is clear from what I cited, one ceases to be a Catholic if he dissents from just one point of Catholic teaching or dogma. This applies to "popes" as well -- one cannot be the head of a body he is not a member of.
St. Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice, II, 30:
“This principle is most certain. The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope, as Cajetan himself admits (ib. c. 26). The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member; now he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian (lib. 4, epist. 2), St. Athanasius (Scr. 2 cont. Arian.), St. Augustine (lib. De great. Christ. Cap. 20), St. Jerome (contra Lucifer.) and others; therefore the manifest heretic cannot be Pope.”
St. Francis De Sales (17th century), Doctor of the Church, The Catholic Controversy, pp. 305-306 : “Now when he [the Pope] is explicitly a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church…”
The heresies of several of our last "popes" are numerous, clear and public, but it would suffice to say that "canonizing" a heretic is enough. In fact, Antipope Bergoglio is guilty of exactly the same heresy spread by Mother Teresa. And many others.
Thus, the Seat of Peter is vacant.
I don’t even know how I ended up on this video but I will never again take communion on the hands. Thank you for this... I will be praying for reparation.
I believe God or Our Lady made you find this to make you realize you was doing wrong.
Dont believe everything you're told! The disciples sat around the kitchen table and received the body and blood of christ. No golden plates and golden cups, only simplicity. VANITY OF VANITIES!!!!!
God Bless you!!
What I dislike about communion in the hand is that it subtracts a gesture of humility.
Poor you. You need to find love in your heart for Jesus, then you will find humility.
If that is what is in your mind,may Christ have mercy on you. You must love God.
Why the strange responses? He's right.
May God have Mercy on our souls....such "DISRESPECT!!!"
It's Sacrilege... not just disrespect
He is right. The Most Sacred Host on the hand is wrong in many ways.
John So the apostles were wrong in many ways at the last supper?
The apostles were bishops, bishop recieve with their own hand. Further, the last supper was not the sacrement of the mass. Also,we do not know whether the apostles recieved in the hand or not.
in all accountsmofmlast supper and early church practice it was done.If it was Good enough for Jesus It is good enough for me.
Where did you get that idea Jeanne? It is not in the gospels! and even if they did, the apostles where bishops, bishops and priests can take communion in the hand. Lastly, it wasn't the mass so it is not a rule for how the mass should be done.
+Jeanne McCarthy There is absolutely ZERO evidence in Scripture that the Apostles received Holy Communion 'in the hand'. There is no account in the Gospels which states that Christ placed Holy Communion in the hands of the apostles. The words "take and eat" (in reference to the Last Supper) is the same greek word that is used in (John 20:22) which says "receive the Holy Spirit". In the context of the Last Supper it means "to take in the mouth", "to receive what is offered". - And there is only ONE historical document (THAT IS SPURIOUS - taylormarshall.com/2011/01/did-church-fathers-practice-communion.html) which is peddled by modernists who claim the early Church practiced 'Communion in the hand" (and as I stated the document is spurious). ALL the rest of the Church Fathers only ever mention receiving Holy Communion directly on the tongue.
So I guess 'what was good enough fro Christ and His Apostles' isn't good enough for you!
I love this man. He needs to be our Holy Father. I want to carry him on the papal chair.
Well said. He is awesome. Just like the true Catholic Church and true Catholic faith is awesome. Jesus Christ, our Lord and savior, our holy redeemer is awesome. And needs to be treated and handled with respect and honor. Thank goodness this interview was done on EWTN. They should be covering more of the reverence and devotion much needed by our Catholics to Jesus in the holy Eucharist. +
The Holy Father is God in heaven. What lies these prople tell.
@@AnnetteMurphyger
Well, Annette, Paul does refer to himself as being the Father of those he evangelized and/or trained in the faith. And various followers of the Lord in Scripture are called "holy," and "holy ones," including the high priest (exp.: Aaron, in Psalm 102). Combining the two titlular discriptors is appropriate, if the position fits.
He talks a good game, but now he is going down the road of schism. He has declared that Vatican II had errors. So Schneider appears to be going to the SSPX and becoming a schismatic. Its a shame, he seemed so good. But when any bishop pretends he is above the magisterium, he becomes like a mad dog.
I totally agree...
God bless your pure heart Bishop Athanasius. You represent me... You are a Holy voice calling in the desert
Bishop Vigano is also fighting against the false and misleading testimony of the Vatican
Yes! Amen! I went to communion and the host broke in pieces and some fell on the floor and I didn't stop to look for him.My sin! But now I won't receive in the hand again.Always on my tongue.
I have actually seen the Eucharist fall out of someone's mouth.
@Joseph Beausigne I’m sorry but that information is not accurate. You won’t find that info in any documents of the second Vatican council. It is tolerated, but is not the right way to receive Jesus. This is the reason why it was accepted by Paul Vl. SACRED CONGREGATION FOR DIVINE WORSHIP, Letter “En reponse a la demande,” to presidents of those conferences of bishops petitioning the indult for communion in the hand, 29 May 1969: Acta Apostolicae Sedis 61 (1969) 546-547; Notitiae 5 (1969) 351-353. In USA was accepted on June 17, 1977.
We have to find answers by reading the real documents not by letting a priest or someone else tell us what the “true” is.
I do agree, wholeheartedly.
I never take communion in the hand we should go back to the traditional ways of taking communion. Bishop Schneider is right on this
We need to show this to all the bishops in 2021!
I agree 100%, God bless this Bishop. 🙏🙏🙏
Let’s go back to traditional mass!!

i may be the new martin lurher .i challenge any of these arsehole bishops to a debate.shove your dogmas up your dirty arses.you dont fool me,nor many millions of others.
In latin...
The Priest not facing you...
I prefer the TLM. But if you have a good Novus Ordo said by a good priest, that is almost as good. It is the lack of faith in our priests that is the real problem. You can always tell when they don't really believe all that the church teaches. It shows in their slapdash masses. It is not the form of the mass that is important, it is the attitude the priest brings to the mass.
My journey into wanting communion on the tongue started when I read somewhere that Voltaire, who, I read was an avowed atheist, said to one of his Catholic friends.. that if he truly believed that Our Lord was in there Eucharist that we would be crawling up in reverence to receive him. That I've statement got me thinking and actually looking at how I was receiving our Lord, not only where my heart was, but how it was offered in my church. I will now not receive in my hand anymore. Period. Voltaire was right...an atheist was right!!!!!
There's an interesting upshot to that realization, though, and I would love to hear your thoughts on it. First, I am a devout Catholic that has recently started receiving on the tongue, kneeling, exclusively. But, here's my thought. If Voltaire was right, then why are we NOT approaching the alter kneeling, or laying prostrate, or, even better, not receiving at all because we are not, and never will BE worthy until He makes us holy in the hereafter? Obviously, we can't NOT receive it at all because that goes against the wishes of the Lord Himself! But between receiving it irreverently and not receiving it at all out of TOTAL reverence, there is a compromise. Now, you and I both believe that the best compromise is on the tongue, but the mother Church herself has decided that on the hand is also acceptable. Now, if we both admit that we as humans are not worthy to receive Him, and nothing WE do can make us so, then we have to aknowledge that on the tongue doesn't MAKE us worthy any more than in the hand. We can never be FULLY reverent by actions. With that in mind, isn't it fair to say that, as the Church has decreed in the hand to be okay, isn't it then appropriate for we, the obedient Faithful, to then accept that what the Church blesses as officially and morally acceptable?
@@jamestouchette859 You are aware that historically the enemies of God used to have to go to.great lengths to obtain hosts and holy water etc.to obscenely. desecrate
Now they just to pop in 5 mins before communion queue up, accept it in the hand and pocket it. No one cares.
Ironically it was gnostic mass practitioners absolute obsession with Catholic sacraments, that l remembered when trying to decide what kind of Christian was the correct kind to be.
They knew.
@@jamestouchette859 I don't agree with your appreciation of the Church blessing and considering communion on the hand okay and morally acceptable. The Church gave permission not a blessing. Quoting Memoriale Domini (1969):
[Pope Paul VI] judged that the long received manner of ministering Holy Communion to the faithful should not be changed.
The Apostolic See therefore strongly urges bishops, priests, and people to observe zealously this law, valid and again confirmed, according to the judgment of the majority of the Catholic episcopate, in the form which the present rite of the sacred liturgy employs, and out of concern for the common good of the Church.
If the contrary usage, namely, of placing Holy Communion in the hand, has already developed in any place, in order to help the episcopal conference fulfill their pastoral office in today's often difficult situation, the Apostolic See entrusts to the conferences the duty and function of judging particular circumstances, if any. They may make this judgment provided that any danger is avoided of insufficient reverence or false opinions of the Holy Eucharist arising in the minds of the faithful and that any other improprieties be carefully removed.
The co-author of Memoriale Domini also wrote (The reform of the liturgy 1948-1975, Annibale Bugnini, page 644):
Along with the instruction, those requesting the indult [to receive in the hand], received a letter explaining the regulations, conditions, and rite of the new manner of receiving communion:
...
5. Whatever procedure is adopted, care must be taken not to allow particles of the Eucharistic bread to fall or be scattered. Care must also be taken that the communicants have clean hands.
@@pablobustos3439 you don't have to agree with it. You DO have to trust the Magisterium of the Church and surrender humbly and obediently do what she decides in matters of faith and proper exercising thereof. If the Church has found that reception in the hand is valid, then you don't get to declare otherwise. You DO, however, have the right and obligation to receive on the tongue if you justifiably believe it to be the duly relevant course to follow. I agree with you that it is proper to receive on the tongue. But I won't let my will supplant the authority given by God to the Church in such matters.
Did Voltaire crawl? If he did not, he was not right. I thought it was Gandhi who said those wirds.
Thank you Lord for this bishop , has a lot of wisdom he has the Holy Spirit
Jesus, I Trust in You +++
Communion on the knees and in our tongue, is more than just good "Etiquette" as some claim. It is a matter of respecting the first commandment. It is a matter of giving God all of our devotion and respect. It is about having a healthy fear and respect for our Lord Jesus. Present in the consecrated Host. Which after consecration by a validly ordained Catholic Priest, it then becomes the real Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ. To Him all the Honor and Glory, now and forever. AMEN.
We have and use the communion railings in our church. Thank you God.
I was once asked to be a minister and give out Eucharist. I agreed, during one Eucharist I was left on my own. There was a long queue of people as the priest in the middle of the church finished. I couldn't understand. And always when I was touching our Lord I felt a deep touch somewhere in my heart. I understood I should not do this and stopped. Laity are not prepared and are not sacrified to do this!!!
I have seen women in tights giving our Holy Communion, a man in short pants, another woman in kind of a skull on her blouse etc. another women giving out Holy Communion as if she were a priest etc. It is not right. And most horrifying - I have witnessed children First Holy Communion standing and on a hand. I am asking how those children will have a respect to Holy Communion???
Thanks fir your testimony.
We all catholics should go to the church and demand to go back to Tradition
The problem with the argument of the little fragments (really, microscopic), is that it is impossible NOT to happen. For when the priest breaks the large host, it has been experimentally proven (using high definition, high speed video photography) that very fine fragments of the host explode out from the host when broken. These super fine fragments fall on the patten, the altar cloth, and the floor in front of the altar. Those pieces, invisible to the naked eye, are then walked on by the priest as he moves to the communicants, and those on the cloth covering the altar are eventually put through a washing machine. (The priest himself washes his hands of fragments after Communion.) How, then, are we to be worried about microscopic fragments on our hands, when priests themselves are not worried about walking on fragments, or washing fragments away in a washing machine? As someone on Catholic Answers once responded, once the host is broken down in the acids in your stomach, the microscopic pieces cease to be the body of Christ, because it loses the very nature of the sacramental that it had possessed (which includes the symbol under which the real body and blood of Christ are presented).
As a convert to catholisism l truly believe in the real presence of our Lord in the consecrated Host. As devout christians we should receive Our Lord devoutly 😢 NO TO COMMUNION IN THE HAND
I was baptised this year from being a complete non believer!
The Lord placed it on my heart to receive on the tongue while kneeling. It is the only way I've ever receives Holy Communion.
Laus Deo Semper.
When my son had his first communion a lady who was going to give comunion to other people..she fell and dropped all the hosts..and the priest didn't do nothing..all bunch of ladies pick all the hosts quick...by the way everyone take rhe bread on their hands..but that event was awful...i imagined our Lord on the ground again..full of blood and tortured....we are in a great crisis .. spiritual inside the church i noticed that many people take the bread and almost no.one confess...
And all the priest give the bread and many extraordinary ministers...women specially I'm just not agree with many things happening
So I guess you are assuming that throughout the entire 2000 years of the Catholic Church's existence, no one priest has ever tripped and dropped the chalice and hosts went flying. This only happens to lay Eucharistic females.
paula proulx ...I understood their comment to be pointing out the tradgedy that a priest, who is in the person of Christ, didn't do anything about God falling on the dirty floor. By the priest staying put, it leads the flock to believe it isn't a big deal. And because Christ is a male, therefore it makes better sense for a male to distribute the body of Christ who was born a man. And even better sense that it be only the priest.
BitsyBeth I have no more energy or time to give my opinion to those who refer to themselves as the true " Traditional Catholics ". It usually never changes anyone's mind and intrudes into my prayer time. I will only say this: are women considered less " holy " to pick up the fallen hosts? Not reverent enough?
My uncle was a Ukrainain Catholic Priest. He impressed upon us that priests were not saints. They are human, they sin. But like all of us, they have access to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and, like all of us, they are on a journey to holiness.
As far as women in the Catholic Church, you might want to dig a little deeper into the role of women in the early Church. I will leave you with this information:

Holy Church’s understanding of what the Lord gave us in the Eucharist deepened over time brought us to a reverence that needed appropriate physical gestures of humility. Now that much of the reverence for the Eucharist has been undermined, over decades, people also don’t know why they should adopt positions of humility in the presence of the Eucharistic Lord. As the practice of standing and receiving in the hand spread, a vicious circle was created which further eroded reverence in congregations.
AND with it, MANY abuses & desecration, both purposely & inadvertently ( particles and crumbs being brushed to the ground and stepped upon, and each and every particle is the ENTIRE BODY of Jesus Christ!)
I hope people will on their own choose to receive Holy Communion only on the tongue.
We need more kneeling, more Holy Communions in the state of grace, received directly on the tongue, from the consecrated hands of priests.
May God bless you ALL...
I remember as a child going to Latin Mass and it felt you were in the real presence of Jesus and in a Sacred place. Now the priest turns his back to the tabernacle and the sacred heart light is on a side wall. There is little reverence in the new mass and communion in the hand is only part of it.
Bishop Schneider would make a great Pope. God bless this holy man so dedicated to the Lord.
I will never be recieving in the hand for as long as I live!
..you would if you lived in australia.
Communion in the hand was/is and remains an indult in the Church. Get down on your knees my friends, and receive a little persecution and preform a penance for the KING!!!
Thank you bishop Schneider for this beautiful explanation on receiving our Lord in Holy Communion. Unfortunately we are not given Holy Communion on the tongue due to the virus. We pray for the day when reverence is restored. God bless you and Fr. Pacwa.
I am sorry to hear that you were unable to receive Holy Communion in your church.
I was blessed to have been able to receive Holy Communion in my local SSPX church. Even when our local authorities forced our priests to close our church, the priests carried on celebrating the Holy Mass in the garden of their priory, and so we never went without the Holy Mass or receiving the Holy of Holies.
God bless Abp Lefebvre and the SSPX.❤
you are the servant of our Lord teach us more and let our holy father be in front line in teaching these church traditions.we should return to our former way of receiving our Lord.
Proposal: Discuss among yourself (Priests) regarding this matter then bring down to the people YOUR APPROVED RULES FOR IMPLEMENTATION.
Amen, I started receiving the Sacred Host in my tongue since early last year 2019.
God Bless Bishop Schneider.
I was an altar boy in the 1960s and remember what a privilege it was to hold the paten underneath the chins of the communicants. It was awe-inspiring to serve at the traditional communion, but it is no more. What a tragedy.
Yes, I was just thinking about that! I served Mass in the 60s as well, and remember holding the patten under each chin. There was so much reverence for the Real Presence then. It is so sad what has happened.
BISHOP SCHNEIDER IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!
When I served as an alter boy so many years ago if I didnt hold the patten properly at communion time i would be reprimanded after mass...or sometimes corrected by the priest during the reception of the host!
I ALWAYS receive on the tongue now, ever since my mom explained to me the consequences of receiving in the hand. And, I encourage this FULLY! Lets bring back the reverence and the sanctity that was once given to Jesus. Now, in 2020, it seems like right now, the Cardinals and bishops are more concerned about germs than if you might drop Our Lord. Though, when you do receive in the hand, tiny crumbs of the Host drop on our hands and we drop them on the floor by brushing your hands off after receiving in the hand
.
Send a message
So what. Jesus allowed himself to be washed with the dirty hair of a female sinner. That is worse yet he never told her not to do it. Jesus never said no one could touch him. It is absurd.
I was told by the Priest this morning, that satan was causing me to be disobedient for not receiving Communion on my hand, after being denied Communion on the tongue by the Deacon. Where is the Faith???
I don't agree with many RC doctrines, but Bishop Schneider is a noble and honorable man.
I had received communion by mouth and was standing before and the host has dropped to the floor and i immediately pick it up and put it into my mouth and saw the priest smiling on that incident. That was almost two years ago.
Please,dear people do not take Holy Communion in your hands😢 😢
I will when the church stops allowing it otherwise I will continue following the rules
Why .. are you gullible to .
The 12 Disciples did.
@Bennett McCoy Not at that time - in fact, one of them was Judas Iscariot!
@Bennett McCoy not at that time they weren't - Christ had not been Crucified and Resurrected - they were 12 disciples, two of whom would betray him outright, and most of the rest would run and hide.
Never once did I receive Holy Communion in my hand. As an altar boy I held a paton for those receiving Holy Commuion at the altar rail. Now my daughter's nine and told in Catholic school it's ok to either receive in the hand or on the tongue. I felt like beating her principal over the head with my Bible. Lol. Now she wants to be like alllll the other kids and not be singled out. So...with me I always advise her before mass starts on our way to church, it's best to receive on the tongue. What's she do? Receive on the hand. Smh. Same thing with her class when they have mass as a school. Yeah....it starts at home. But the Parish priests and teachers who were brought up like me could do something to sway this abomination........but they won't. But I won't stop telling my daughter how I feel either. Lead by example. Shame.
The principal is correct. In the US we have an indult from Rome that permits it.
Homeschool is the way because these schools are not Catholic the best teachers are the parents. It shouldn't be anyone else that dictates the culture of your home. Your traditional and it shouldn't be changed because a teacher said so. I only suggest homeschool because I do it and I know from experience theres no better way these schools teach kids inappropriate behavior as well. God bless.
I love Bishop Athanasius Schneider along with Archbishop Vigano. So few real catholics left in the freemason infiltrated church. God bless Bishop Athanasius Schneider, and may he continue the love and work of God fruitfully forever.
When receiving Our LORD in the Holy Eucharist on the tongue; please brush your teeth and tongue. Your inviting a very important guest into your heart.
Now you tell me. Things were changed over night. I am 73yrs old and this is what all catholics are doing.
Not all.
Have RESPECT for God. Do not use your dirty hands on Holy Host. He is our Mighty God.
The average mouth is dirtier than hands
punchy logan The human mouth contains the most amount of germs than anywhere else in the body. The worst bite to get is a human bite.
He mentions an excellent point that a lot do not expound upon... we are supposed to give the MAXIMUM amount of ADORATION... standing and receiving Holy Communion on the hand is not & then picking up The entire Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of JESUS Christ with our fingers like we do in common practice of eating a chip is NOT remotely a form of REVERENTIAL ADORATION!!
Galadeth Laernis But we pop the chip into our mouth, don't we? Is that okay?
Somebody who receives communion on the hand may be receiving Our Lord much more reverently than someone who receives it by mouth. How can you possibly judge? You do not know what goes on in the mind of people. Also, I don't believe Our Lord, who created us, " We are fearfully and wonderfully made ", would consider our hands unworthy or " dirty ". He made our entire bodies, and who are you to decide which part of our body is better. He handed the Apostles his body, under the species of bread, into their hands.
Our hands are NOT consecrated... a chip & The Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of JESUS Christ are NOT on the same level... and just like Bishop Schneider said, this is NOT about the interior disposition of the person. So I am NOT judging!
THIS IS about fragments & particles of Holy Communion of which EACH & EVERY partical or fragment IS the ENTIRE Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of JESUS Christ!
Kneeling down with a veil on and receiving holy communion in the tongue is very important, they should return the communion rails in all catholic churches !
Praise the Good Lord Jesus for this wonderful Godley man . May God pro him all the time .
I once saw a man wrote that when he went into the toilet of the car park after Mass, he found...the Sacred Host in the toilet!
The consequence of communion in hand!
Jehovah's Witness Gospel Fullness
May the Most Holy Sacred adorable face of our Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on our souls.
Well how did it get there?
My God have mercy on that soul.
Jesus Christ reigns supreme
I have no idea how that Consecrated Host got there to the toilet - if this a true story, which I doubt. However, if it was a Consecrated Host, I would think Jesus could extract Himself, and probably did, from that place, returning the host to its original state - a piece of bread. My point is with all of this 'legalism' being expounded here (something the Lord warned against), Jesus is perfectly capable of leaving any person or place where He isn't truly wanted, or being disrespected, ridiculed, profaned or abused. We can't confine Him to the Host - He is perfectly capable to depart - and thereby de-consecrate - returning the Species to their original nature of bread or wine, even before falling to the floor and being trampled upon, for example and which, I believe, is done most of the time unknowingly. I don't have a problem with Communion in the hand, or with 'Extra Ordinary Ministers', men or women, helping to bring the Lord to their fellow Catholics, either in Church or to the sick and homebound. As long as it is done with the utmost reverence and love for the Lord. I'm a pre-Vatican Council Catholic and have always been in some way involved in some type of lay ministry all my life. I loved the pre-Vatican II Mass and I love the Novus Ordo Mass even more. It is celebrated in language I understand, and, at my parish, it is done with much reverence and respect, and includes the use of professional organ music (songs of the liturgical season), the use of incense and some short Latin prayers and there is no clapping of hands at the end of Mass, to, I suppose, stroke the ego of the musicians, or choir, and acknowledge their 'performance' - they are simply lay ministers contributing their talents to worshiping the Lord and He will reward them.
AMEN!! I LONG FOR THIS!!!
Our lady of Garabandal, Spain told the children.."many priest and Bishops will fall to perdition, and take many souls with them!"...Lord have mercy on us!
By the grace of God and mercy,Hope and pray here in Philippines the communion will be given by priest and by tongue not by hand..
So is it better to receive holy communion on the tongue?
AARON BARAIYA much better. Even if you are at a Novus Ordo.
Aaron.....I have read private revelation where the Holy Mother says taking the host in the hand is a sacrilege. I wish I could remember where I read it to share with you, but I read so much private revelation from many seers now, its hard to keep track.
Not according to the church
@@lannlann I made my First Holy Communion at age 6, the year of V2. I was taught not to touch the Host with my teeth, and to this day I've never been able to 'chew' It, despite what I see around me. I remember my 6 year old mind knowing how Sacred was the Sacrament I was about to receive, no one had to 'simplify' the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity for me by using the ghastly term
'holy bread.'
Faithful priests in Ireland have been challenged by social.Catholic parents who object to their children being taught about a "cannibalistic God." It's time our bishops manned up and insisted on children being instructed properly in the sacrificial mystery of the Eucharist
Cassie Miller Same!
I agree Jeanette including the mantilla and the proper dress codes for church, avoiding using those shorts, but skirts and dress pants. And the top tanks and low neckline shirts.
I began wearing only long dresses and long skirts and I'm missing a veil to complete the look. The long skirts I have reach to my ankles and blouses close to the forearm the same with the dresses though they're almost at knee-length and cardigan optional and I refuse to wear pants of any kind to church
But we also shouldn't have a Pharisee-like scrupulosity, should someone not go to mass after work if they do not have a change from their work clothes?
Do not be afraid of division, be afraid of being in the wrong side of division.
We owe our Saviour the highest reverence we can bestow when the Priest raised the Host and then the Wine at the Consecration, by receiving the Host on the hand. We lose that when we receive Communion on the hand.
Question: Presently, Why are Priests allow Communion on hands AND NOW THESE PRIESTS ARE CONTRADICTING ITS IMPLEMENTATION? BIG WHY....
The Devils love it. Listen to the exorcism tapes of Anneliese Michel. They are pleased about us receiving in our "paws."
God bless you Bishop Schneider and greetings and blessings in Christ Jesus to you. Thank you for sharing this most beautiful video dialogue. I agree with you 100%, we need to reinstate the sacredness and solemnness of receiving the holy Eucharist receiving it on the tongue rather than placing it in the hands of other parishioners. I also feel we need to take and reinstate the tridentine Latin Mass as a was originally founded by Christ, and we need to take an abolish the novus ordo Mass which has become very much like the Protestant churches and also the novus Auto Mass and many parishes has become nothing more than a Broadway production would love to hear you speak on the tridentine Mass in comparison to the new novus ordo Mass. Thank you and God bless you always.
Thank you for a beautiful explain .
Kneeling and on the tongue offers the list possible contangion and proper reverence to the LORD. Now the Churches see closed and the reopening offers only a small number at a time. It is time the rails come back and we get it right both ways.Jesus is fully present in the smallest particle after consecration!How can it be otherwise?Maximum reverence with or without Covid is necessary. It is better to receive the Eucharist reverently after a long time than to expose Him to abuse!
I have witnessed three times in one year here in calif. Where the Eucharist was dropped on the floor.
By the recipient !
Also I know of two people from other faiths that have received communion
al meggs in Chicago the Bishop Cupich gave communion to the non Catholic governor of Illinois.
God Bless You and this is thought Provoking 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Bishop Schneider is truly a great man who is taking good care of his flocks.
For us ordinary individual who does not know the true essence of love.
Must be thankful to bishop who is taking care of us.
Please continue to give us gospel that will help us become a good shepherd of the lord.
Why doesn't the pope do something about Holy Communion. Who is he scared of changing it back to where it was? Why aren't the priest bishops doing something about it in their parishes has everyone gone mad?
ITS ALL THE ILLUMINATI FAULT...............
Many bishops don't believe in the real pressence of the Lord in the most holy eucharist anymore.
David Now you are really going off the deep end. Is that supposed to be some sort of joke?
Have you done a survey of all Catholic Bishops?
I am left to conclude that that is merely your opinion.
Unfortunately many priests don’t believe. And you must know that for consecration to be valid the priest must have the intention to do what the church does ie offer the sacrifice of Jesus to the Father. If the priest no longer believes does he form the intention in his heart and mind. Are the hosts dropping all over the carpet still bread or are they the body blood soul and divinity of Jesus? Are you receiving Jesus or bread? Learn the Catholic faith. The enemy has entered the holy place.
Kimberly...........I have either read or heard in a video the priest does not need to have the intention of the transformation in order for the consecration to take place. Jesus does it himself every mass without the priests mental assistance.
I been going to Latin tridentine masses for 40yrs in south Jersey. What most of you folks know we always received on the tongue.The mass of Paul the 6 The novus ordos u can receive in the hand.I go to the novus ordo sat.eveing and I receive on the tongue .I will not receive in the hand.
This SUBJECT should be discussed closed door by the PRIESTS HIGHER UPS, NOT IN OPEN MEDIA. We don't need whom is the BEST ARGUMENTS but the BEST APPROVED PROCEDURE.
If they think the parishioners are happy..there would be no discussion to be had! We the lay people have the right, after all, we are the body of Christ, to let our bishops know that we want to be more reverent and they are letting us down..but most of all..letting our Lord down!
Thank you Bishop.
“ It is legally licit “ This priest admits that, plus that there is no dogma that says that the Eucharist must be received directly on the tongue.
This Priest is really giving his own opinion, and the reasons for his opinion.
To equate receiving the Eucharist in the hand with eating in a cafeteria is truly an unkind comparison and is in no way valid. Or even eating in the kitchen. We use utensils in the kitchen and we line up in a cafeteria, possibly while chit chatting. There is no sense of receiving anything special in a cafeteria.
At Mass, we line up quietly to receive Communion. We bow when we are behind the person receiving Communion. Then when we receive Communion, the Holy Host is held up before us. The Eucharist Minister then says, “ The Body Of Christ “. And we respond “ Amen “, take the Precious Body and Blood of Lord into our hand and put the Host in our mouth in front of the Eucharistic Minister.
How does this equate with a cafeteria?
If the angels prostrate themselves before God, do you think we should also lie down in front of the Host while we receive Our Lord?
By now, in this day and age of science, one must realize that microscopic pieces of the Holy Host are moving around in the air. How do we capture those?
Our Lord is Divine and was also completely human while he was on the earth. At the Last Supper, he broke the bread and gave it to his apostles. They were eating with their hands. We know this because they were dipping their food into bowls. Jesus walked over a gave a morsel of food that He had dipped in a sauce and handed it to Judas “ in his hand “.
If it was acceptable then and with the first Christians, why is it wrong now?
And please do not bother explaining that the apostles were already priests, because they had yet to abandon Jesus at His time of suffering, receive the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and then receive Our Lord’s instructions at His Ascension.
And indult was granted for the u.s.c.c.b.s in the early 1970s because it was believed that it would be a gesture of ecumenism and a way to compromise with our separated brethren and call them back ...also because the prevailing attitude was that we can stand as adults rather than kneel like children because the Church had come of age....the Catholic Church in some dioceses have been since that time losing up to 10 Catholics for every 1 convert. And an indult by definition is to give Apostolic permission for something illicit and against the universal norm and you should read the strict guidelines that are supposed to be followed for the indult from The Holy See to maintain licitness. All which have in one way or the other been ignored....please don't take my word for it do the research. I went from one extreme to the other on this matter Not taking anyone's word for it. Only by search for the Truth!! also read in the Gospel of John Where after our Lord was resurrected Mary Magdeline tried to touch him and his response " Do Not Touch Me for I have not yet ascended..." ..then in just a few paragraphs Our Lord is instructing Saint Thomas to put his finger in his Hand and his Hand in his side.......the difference...One was consecrated the other not.
And at the Last supper......again consecrated Hands (the 12) and the bread being dipped was not the Eucharist. Note who got the dipped bread. The three Things all enemies of the Church focus their undermining, denying and marginalization on are The ministerial Priesthood, The Blessed Virgin and The Real presence. All of which can crush Satan....food for thought. Read Cranmers Godly Orders and you will see a complete parallel between what Thomas Cranmer did in England to dismantle the Mass and belief in the Eucharist and The Systematic implementation of the innovations thrust on the Norvus Ordo Missae of Pope Paul VI.....there is no resemblance between the Actual Mass of Paul VI (promulgated in 1969) and the Mass of the west today
Jesus at the multiplication of the bread asked that all fragments be collected!
That was bread. We are talking about receiving Body of our God. Please understand the difference.
Yup. And they SAT / RECLINED ON THE GROUND TO EAT! AND THEY ATE A MEAL (as the early church did along with Communion, early on).
@@malcolmkirk3343 during the approved apparition of Virgin Marry angel gave children Communion. They received it while kneeling, on the tongue.
One would assume that God's angel knows how to receive Body of God, right?
@@boem3021
1) Did the angel command them to kneel? Not that I recall from the report.
2) The angel gave them to drink of the cup, as well. Bet you do not think that should be normative, do you?
3) ...Now, this is indeed strange: Since when have angels received the Sacramental Priesthood, such that they should be permitted to give Communion as priests?
Do you see any basis for that elsewhere (in scripture, or tradition)? The Church and scriptures have laid out who may give Communion. Is there somewhere an exception to those standards?
@@malcolmkirk3343 the main question is: would you agree that the angel knows better then anyone in this world how to glorify our Lord?
God bless you Bishop
Whatever method is used to administer the Eucharist: either in the hands or on the tongue, the person should receive reverently with the belief in the Real Presence (Transubstantiation). We should strive NOT to let preferences divide us!
Here's an idea, Bishop Schneider. Get in line with the teaching of Pope Francis and submit to his teaching in full, as required not only by your vows but by Lumen Gentium 25.
Diary of St. Faustina 160 relevant here?
Thanks, I need to read this book.
@@lannlann it's worth a read, I've got the Dairy of Saint Faustina. I got it blessed today on Divine Mercy Sunday.
I don't have the book....what does she have to say about it?
The Bishop is correct! 🙏
A very holy man indeed; he is an excellent role model for religious (especially bishops) and laypeople alike!
It Sacrilege to treat the Eucharist in that manner
Yes it is a sacrilege to do what the church allows. The church is sacrilegious for allowing this
A sacrament contains both the symbol of the body of Christ but also contains the body of Christ and thus is holy. The bible is thus holy because the word is God. And marriage is holy and the seed of both man and woman is holy. And so with eavh sacrament. But our age forgets the holy and both the meaning and the substance of the holy. To the pig nothing is holy. And modern man like pigs regard nothing as holy either in the meaning or in the substance.And those who defile scripture with their own intrrpretation and opinions and self drfile the word of God. Thank you for caring so much. And i am a pastor in the separatist tradition which nobody higher than the individual christian. But you are right ....every part of the host contains the presence of Christ.. and every part of a sacrament is holy and ought to be treated as holy.
God pls save us from evil. Thank you Archbishop for Truth.
I agree! I don't receive communion in the hand. When the pandemic was at it's height, one could only receive it in the hand. I totally was against it but I needed the Eucharist. At one time, even the bishop refused to have me receive the Eucharist orally. It bothers me when I still see people receiving the Eucharist in the hand. I always think, "don't they get it"....,??
Did Jesus put the bread in his disciples mouth?
His apostles were priests, not laity
St. ARCHANGEL MICHAEL. "Fear not my voice which is the voice of the triune God, who sent me to speak in his holy name for God must be, I not only loved but also respected and obeyed all consecrated and religious. they have not obeyed, they have had and have to pay their debts and mistakes in this life or in purgatory, not counting those who have gone to hell, God does not play nor can hide one behind the other, each is responsible for his actions, words, thoughts and omissions. in the Holy Catholic Church, obedience has always been a very important virtue, esteemed and practiced, but in the latter, is in decline for the rebellion and presumption. All this, work of satan and his demons, as is its seal, which has printed deception and fraud communion in the hand in the Catholic Church and all who give and take are wrong with a false obedience to the church and its hierarchy, because they are the most responsible for all who are committing sacrilege, and have roiled the fervor and devotion and worship the august Sacrament. It is a sacrilege leso that men who have anointed their hands by the Bishop, touch the Sacred Body of Christ with his own hands. The sacred is sacred and the profane is profane, but the devil has gotten them many, that everything is as sacred. And with this wrong teaching, he has lost respect and adoration to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Everything is diabolical plan well prepared for hell. If the faithful and priests they saw with their eyes the face, what happens in every sacrilegious communion of the Body and Blood of Christ, I sure would not. When a priest puts the Sacred Host in the hand of a sinner who does not have them anointed by the ordinary, demons, there are around the priest several who know them gives way, jump for joy and make parties, and they go behind which he has taken in hand, to continue tempting him and deceiving him. And the priest who gave him point somewhat in their favor, for the day they can harass his soul in the particular judgment. And Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is derided in his painful passion, all this, he suffers mystically. And the guardian angels of the priest and the communicant, like all others who are around them with the saints in heaven, weeping sore and ashamed. I Miguel, I am the angel in charge of bringing souls to heaven, who have already finished their purification in purgatory, and in truth I tell you that there are many souls of priests and faithful, who gave and took communion in the hand, pudiendolo have avoided, giving it and receiving it in the mouth, voluntarily and freely without missing obedience .......

The main thing about holy communion is that we are in the state of grace. No matter how reverent we are and careful about many details, if we do not “discern the body of Christ”, examine our conscience, confess our sins, we “eat and drink judgment” on ourselves (1 Cor 11).
Here in the USA, there has been a grave loss of the sense of the Divine fullness of Christ in the Holy Eucharist. We are now suffering a great chastisement because of this lack of faith and love for our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. My Jesus Mercy.
+ (Part of receiving Holy Communion worthily is not only being prepared
spiritually (being in a state of grace), but RECIEVING it worthily through the
respect of the actual sacred species which were consecrated on the altar +)
(Without RESPECT, means DIS_RESPECT for Our Blessed Lord alone who
remains and is given to us among the sacred species....)
The older tradition is by hand which was done since the early Church. The receiving the host by mouth was developed during the Middle Ages. So it was decided by the Church either way is acceptable.
Jesus didn't break the bread and place it upon the tongues of the Apostles during the Last Supper He gave it to them in which they taken the host by their hands and ate.
But they were priests, not laity.
That is how I feel I communionnin in the hand is the tradition from the time of Jesus. I came into the church in my early thirties 12 years after Vatican 'll. I only ever received communion on the tongue while having to use two sticks before and after hip replacement, once I nearly bit Father's finger off by accident. Go back to the tradition of the early early church. That is Tradition, Pope John who instigated Vatican 'll wanted to open the windows and let the Holy Spirit in. Let it be, and let God be the judge of those who receive disresptfully in the hand.
Thank you for discussing this.
I pray for you Bishop Athanasius Schneider one of the most holy man in the Catholic Church today. ❤️🙏🏼
