Overboard with EMHCs

For the liturgy, "through which the work of our redemption is accomplished," (1) most of all in the divine sacrifice of the Eucharist, is the outstanding means whereby the faithful may express in their lives, and manifest to others, the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church.

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales

I haven't been to a mass where there weren't extraordinary ministers used.

OH! Right. The times I went to tridentine mass too. But MOST of the masses I've been to in the past 19 years.

Any parish I attend that isn't mine is over loaded with them.

My old parish before we moved to Indy had two at each mass. They held the cup, and father in the center had the Eucharist. Every other mass that I've been to that has them just seems to have so MANY! *sigh*
