There is a good video discussing the topic of "ad orientem" liturgy that is well worth watching.

I'll agree with one of those interviewed that it is disturbing to hear people speak of ad orientem worship as though it might be harmful, or divisive, while nothing could be more Catholic in both the narrow - as in regards the faith - and the wider - as in universal - aspects of the term.

On this day we remember the Holy Apostles St. Peter and St. Paul.

Let us take this chance to remind ourselves of what a "pastor bonus", a good shepherd, looks like! It is one who will be willing to suffer and die for the sake of those in his care, for the sake of truth and Christ.
