I've seen this video before. I am very curious why Mass was celebrated in a circus. It seems like early modernism to me.
Can't workers wear their work clothes to a daily workers' Mass?…It would depend on the clothes. I wouldn't call a false nose "clothes"
I've seen this video before. I am very curious why Mass was celebrated in a circus. It seems like early modernism to me.
Here is a reference i found on youtube.
"Mass is held for Bouglione circus 100th anniversary of its creation. Paris, France."
Can't workers wear their work clothes to a daily workers' Mass?….
.Isn't it true that Rogation Masses were done in the fields? And in times of war on the back of jeeps? They were also done in people's homes in Virginia, because there were no Catholic Churches before 1795? They might have thought the were giving Glory to God and thanking him for their 100 years was proper before the 100th year anniversary show. Jesus was born in stable and died on the cross, he didn't make a big deal about pomp and circuмstances. If the Mass had the circus performers performing during the Mass that would be an entirely different story.
This doesn't make any sense to me. Why don't they all go and attend Mass in a church to celebrate their anniversary? Mass isn't supposed to be celebrated in a circus tent. With clowns and everything. This whole scene is way off.
The holy sacrifice must be celebrated only in a consecrated and sacred place.

The link above mentions the name of the bishop and more details.
Rosa Bouglione always seems to always wear a cross in her pictures. And apparently she was married in a lions cage.
This event, a Traditional Latin Mass celebrated in a circus setting, highlights that the diversity of celebrations existed even before the reforms of Vatican II.
It shows that the Traditional Latin Mass was not limited to Church settings, but was celebrated in unconventional settings such as a circus too.
This unique event serves as a reminder of the rich history of the Catholic Church and the various ways it has been celebrated over the centuries.
Of course, certain situations of necessity would permit Mass to be offered in different venues, but I doubt this was such a situation. I've also seen pictures of this circus online that entailed seriously immodest dress on the part of the entertainers. Canon Law was fairly strict about where it was appropriate to offer Mass, except in situations of extreme urgency ... but left the typical "out" that it was up to the bishop.So they were taking licenses they shouldn't have taken.
