Pope celebrating Holy Mass ad orientem
Saturday, January 12, 2008 by Taylor Marshall | E-mail this post
The Pope is turning the tables on everyone...literally.
In another significant liturgical turn at the very top, B16 will celebrate tomorrow's annual Sistine Chapel Mass for the Baptism of the Lord in the ad orientem stance -- that is, facing away from the congregation and toward the cross that stands at the chapel's back wall.Read it all at Whispers.
Hat tip to Mark Adams for making me aware of this.
