Three New Canons in 1968?

  • I read somewhere that Paul VI issued a docuмent in 1968 promulgating the three additional canons and permitting them to be used in the Traditional Mass (such as it was then). And the changed words of consecration were possibly made compulsory in the Roman Canon.  I think it came into force on 15 August 1968.

    Does anyone know the name and date of this docuмent, or whether it even existed?

  • Yes they were 3 Canons published I believe.

    In my Saint Joseph Daily Missal published during the pontificate of Pius XII, the Canon in the Mass is called the "Eucharistic Prayer" (which the Novus Ordo tends to use more) or Prayer of Great Thanksgiving (the Novus Ordo and Episcopalians use)  In the Eastern Catholic Churches, the Canon of Mass is called Anaphora (which the Novus Ordo and Eastern Catholics use).

    The second Canon in the New Liturgy called Eucharistic Prayer II is originally from the Apostolic Tradition of St. Hippolytus.  However, when the Apostolic Tradition was utilized in the New Liturgy, certain Catholic references were eliminated as noted by Fr. Anthony Cekada.

    The Apostolic Tradition of St. Hippolytus, is where the Novus Ordo Church adopted the New Rite of Episcopal Consecration because it was formerly known as the Egyptian Church Ordinance.  Its consecratory prayer is almost identical to the Coptic Catholic rite of Episcopal Consecration.
    I'm a Roman Catholic who upholds the sedevacantist position.
