The Star Wars mass...

It wasn't Darth Vader who gave the blessing to the first communion children. This was personally undertaken by Pastor Christoph Nobs with a bright green laser sword at the celebration of a Star Wars First Communion Mass. The idea for the stars-War Communion came from Nicolas Gkotses community director. Star Wars had been a theme for the children in their religious instruction and so he tried to communicate the gospel in this way in a timely manner. - "May the force be with you!"

  1. This is one of the reasons why I will never go to a Roman Mass in the Ordinary Form anymore. Only in the Extraordinary Form or the Byzantine Divine Liturgy. The Roman Mass in the Ordinary Form still has serious defects. #1 the rubrics, not being strictly enforced by Rome!. Call me what you will but the current Ordinary Form created by Bugnini is a joke!!. Celebrated by ignorant Latin priests like this example.

  2. This is another reason why the Orthodox are very reluctant to give the Roman papacy any more power than a first among equals. The Pope can't even control his own clergy.

  3. I hope this priest and those "concelebrating" loose their faculties to offer any form of Mass. They deserve it!.
