In the Catholic Church, there are two primary forms of the Roman Rite Liturgy: the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), codified after the Council of Trent in 1570, and the Novus Ordo Mass, promulgated in 1969 after the Second Vatican Council. The latter is the most common form, while the former is often the subject of confusion and controversy. Father Chris Alar, MIC, compares and contrasts the main points of both forms to help you better understand the beauty of each.

One of the most beautiful things in the worship of Our Lord at Mass is music. Marian Postulant Austin explains how sacred music, the song and the language of the angels, is a gift from God that gives expression to the soul and dignifies ritual and worship. Then hear from "Floriani," a talented group of men who believe in the importance of fostering a rebirth in sacred music. 

In this third and final episode explaining the different parts of the holy sacrifice of the Catholic Mass, Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, concludes the Liturgy of the Eucharist with the distribution of Holy Communion, the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and the sending forth of the faithful to share the abundance of graces received in the Mass.
