Wow, nobod ydoes the true Holy Week like they do it at St. Gertrude the Great church.  Miss seeing Fr. Cekada sing the Passion, though.

It was interesting in the Paryers that they skipped the prayer for the Pope (which I guess is logical for sedevacantists).
But I was a bit surprised that two prayers later, they skipped the prayer "pro Christianissimo impertore nostro."  Are they implying by that omission that there is no American president because of the stօʟɛn ɛʟɛctιօn (therefore they skip that prayer just like they skip the one for the pope)?  Even though the prayer is for all the rulers of the world?  Not criticizing; just curious.

That was me ^^^^

I have always wanted to attend a pre-55 Holy Week and today I got the chance. Kind of. Sort of. Since the SSPX does the '62 and and the indult does the pre-55 sort of, I decided to check out the indult. It is okay because Sean Johnson is fawning over the sedes' Holy Week so I know I can be forgiven. It was the Church of the Holy Innocents in Manhattan and the priest was the pastor Father Miara.

I followed along in my missal which I usually don't do at Mass. But I got confused during the petitions to the various groups of people. I got lost. I think my Father Lasance Missal does not have all the prayers in it. And then I noticed Father was praying the prayer for the Jews and I paid close attention. It was not the prayer for the "perfidis Judaeis" as it says in my 'reprint of the '45 missal, so I figured it must be the Benedict XVI prayer for the Jews. When the time came I did not genuflect. Almost everyone else genuflected. After that there was a lot of singing from the choir. And they brought out the cross. I was surprised at the end they gave out Communion to all the faithful, which I thought was forbidden on Good Friday. My missal says only the priest takes Communion on Good Friday, except that a few hosts are reserved in case someone is dying and needs Viaticuм. So I did not go up for Communion as I thought I should not on Good Friday.

And that was pretty much it. The Benedict prayer and people Communion, but otherwise a beautiful service. I did not get bored at all even though I only read the Latin in the Missal and did not understand the words. It was an hour and fifty minutes.
