00:00Music
00:00Once the sacred moment is over, they are now called the final rites,
00:19which consists of the final prayer, or prayer after communion,
00:24and the blessing, both are performed standing up.
00:30We stand up.
00:38Yeah.
00:39Music
00:39What happens if a host falls or a little blood is spilled while drinking from the chalice?
00:56Well, in general, today our hosts are firmer, so it is collected, the minister consumes it,
01:03He is primarily the one who would consume it, and he checks with his hand that no particles remain.
01:10Try to pick it up.
01:11If there were any suspicion that it broke or that it threw away a crumb or something,
01:19So he gets a purifier, wets it, and cleans the little spot where it fell, right?
01:26If there were any doubts.
01:27When the Lord's blood falls, the purifier first dries and then becomes moist.
01:36and the area where the Lord's blood has fallen is cleaned.
01:40The Eucharistic fast.
01:47The church asks us for a sacrifice of one hour,
01:52And there, well, an hour before mass or an hour before receiving communion.
01:56Well, I believe that what the church asks of us is to make a sacrifice.
02:01It's about preparing ourselves spiritually, right?
02:04So I think we can make a small sacrifice,
02:08Well, one hour, two hours, I mean, the important thing is to make ourselves aware.
02:13The church asks for an hour of Eucharistic fasting,
02:16which is not, as they used to say, to prevent it from falling on the meat you just ate.
02:21The host is so thin that it will disappear right in your mouth.
02:28It's practically going to turn into a kind of saliva.
02:31So it's not for that reason, it's a sacrifice, it's a preparation for.
02:51The bells are usually used to indicate that the Blessed Sacrament is being moved.
03:08It is played when they are outside the church.
03:11It is played when I am going to move the Blessed Sacrament from here to somewhere else.
03:15so that people know what's going on, because I don't see it.
03:18They carry it in a reliquary, so I announce it with the bell.
03:22so that people will kneel and worship the Lord.
03:27This is not to be touched, because it was here, it is still here, and it is going here.
03:32In other words, he's always among us, I mean,
03:35We are all even having Jesus in our hearts.
03:39Many people, after receiving communion in churches where the tabernacle is located,
03:43So there they go with the Tabernacle, right?
03:45"You are the Tabernacle," a saint once said.
03:48It's so that people will kneel before you,
03:51because you are now the Tabernacle of Christ.
03:54So the little bells, well, in the church they are only rung at the right moment
03:59in which they tell you, uh, it's already happening,
04:04The Eucharistic moment is beginning.
04:07Look, look at it now, they're touching again.
04:09Those little bells are just for attracting attention, right?
04:14Some also say they have a liturgical meaning
04:17to show that angels are all around us,
04:21It also makes sense that way, right?
04:23But, of course, when I hear the bells,
04:28Well, I see where it's coming from and I kneel down, right?
04:30In other words, at that moment I have to do,
04:33We were saying, when it's not exposed,
04:35I have to genuflect.
04:37If the Blessed Sacrament is exposed, a double genuflection is required.
04:42The little bells are for warnings.
04:54Yes, it is permissible to bow before approaching.
04:57and then kneel, yes, of course.
05:00Everything we show to the Lord to give Him glory is good.
05:07Well, we have here in the parish,
05:18We have a group of the Lord's washerwomen,
05:20which are the ones that, if any of them want, well,
05:25To access this equipment, please contact the office.
05:28They have shifts, and then there are special methods.
05:31The ones you wash with, right?
05:34It's put in clean water first, right?
05:37And they wait until the sacrament is lost
05:42When the form is corrupted, it is called...
05:44So, first you put it in clean, pure water, right?
05:48So that, if there are any Moronitas, they will become corrupted.
05:52and lose the sacrament.
05:54And then they wash with Belrosita, right?
05:56And all that water doesn't go down the drain,
05:59All that water goes into a flowerpot.
06:03In some places they have special storage facilities,
06:05We put it in a small flowerpot.
06:08so that it returns to Earth, right?
06:11This is how these elements are purified.
06:15It's not just the right thing to do, it's what needs to be done.
06:24When the Lord said, "Take and eat,"
06:27He didn't say take and suck.
06:28TRUE?
06:37In other words, the verb that Saint John uses
06:40in the Gospel of John,
06:41in verse 56,
06:45It is the verb trogon,
06:46which is eating by chewing,
06:48It is the act of chewing and eating,
06:51of glutir.
06:53So, it's all about biting.
06:56Therefore, those who have had the opportunity,
06:58And if they haven't had it,
06:59next year,
07:01Remember that on the Easter feast,
07:04That day we received communion with unleavened bread,
07:06of a true bird.
07:08In other words, homemade bread,
07:09just water and flour.
07:11What does it transform into?
07:12On a hard biscuit.
07:14And that cookie,
07:16if you don't bite it,
07:17You can't eat it.
07:20Because it won't melt in your mouth,
07:22how are you doing.
07:24So, that's what you have to eat.
07:25And we do it on purpose,
07:27I did it on purpose,
07:28throughout all these years,
07:29so that people,
07:30at least once a year,
07:32have the experience of
07:33bite,
07:35chewing the body of Christ.
07:37Having the physical experience of eating.
07:39Because with this host,
07:41well,
07:41You're biting him, aren't you?
07:43They barely put it on you and boom!
07:45She's so thin,
07:46that is quickly lost.
07:47But if,
07:48the specific act is
07:49bite,
07:51chew,
07:51swallow.
07:52Yeah.
07:54Yeah.
07:55What is it called?
08:25No, it's from the Episcopal Conference. The Holy See, following a tradition from the first five centuries of the Church, gives Communion in the hand. The Holy See has said that Communion should be given. The proper, ordinary way is to give it in the hand.
08:45Saint Cyril of Jerusalem and Saint Justin have two tremendous catecheses on the importance of giving communion in the hand.
08:54So, that's how it was done for almost five centuries. Then, due to various circumstances, it became restricted, and then again, after the Council, a little later, starting with Paul VI, Communion in the hand was permitted.
09:09Well, first it was restricted under certain circumstances, then it was opened to the Universal Church, and then it was left to the discretion of the episcopal conferences.
09:19The Mexican Episcopal Conference says no, so we won't give it, right?
09:22The American Episcopal Conference says, we will continue in Italy and in many other places they will shake hands.
09:29Not us. There's a lack of culture and other things.
09:32But there is a very long tradition of giving communion in the hand.
09:39Here I go.
09:41Twelve o'clock.
09:43Yes, we have to die.
09:45Very good.
09:46Let's wrap this up. Okay, one last question and then we'll go.
09:49When are we going to leave?
09:52Extraordinary ministers can always support him; they are instituted precisely for that purpose.
10:05Okay, let's move on to the last part.
10:07That's enough, because otherwise it's twelve, three and the battery is dead, everything is dead, my voice is gone, everything is gone.
10:14What's more, they must have already gone home.
10:16The last thing about catechesis is, it goes in this, in this ending, well, let's say the prayer because that's where I got distracted to finish the mass.
10:29Grant us, merciful God, that, nourished by the body and blood of your Son, we may drink confidently from the fountain of mercy and show ourselves more and more merciful to our brothers and sisters.
10:45Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
10:47Amen.
10:48The last sign and the last gesture, the last one they will receive is the blessing.
10:53They will receive the blessing, they will not cross themselves.
10:59The priest is going to give you the blessing; in fact, the liturgical norm says, bow your head to receive the blessing.
11:08So, when the priest is going to give the blessing, after the liturgical greeting, "The Lord be with you," and during the blessing we are going to assume a receptive posture.
11:21I bow my head so that God's blessing may fall upon me, right?, and I receive it with my hands folded or outstretched.
11:35I am going to receive something, the Father is going to give me the last thing, the blessing, He is going to give it to me.
11:41He gives blessing, I receive blessing, I don't cross myself.
11:45At the end of the mass we do not cross ourselves, we receive the blessing.
11:49OK?
11:50May the Lord be with you all and may the blessing of Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, descend upon you and remain with you forever.
12:04Brothers and sisters, with the joy of having celebrated Jesus Christ, let us all go in peace.
12:11Well, here we come to the end. Hopefully, all of this will be of great help and we can celebrate and live life to the fullest.
12:18the mystery of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.
12:22Come in everyone, good night.
