Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre :
“A liturgy that is well done, a Mass that is well celebrated with all of the bows, all of the reverences – all that has a meaning. The Church is not trying to give us some kind of a pleasant theatrical performance. The incensing of the priest and the faithful, the bows, the genuflections, every one of those gestures has a profound significance. But some say, why the incense among people? We incense God, we do not incense men. In reality, we are incensing souls sanctified by grace, because they are the temple of the Holy Spirit. And if we incense authorities with more solemnity, it is because men who hold authority are participating in God's authority.”
