Last week, Fr. Mark-Mary invited us to not just show up for Mass, but actually pray the Mass—participate in the Mass. But… what does that actually look like?
Today, Fr. Mark-Mary gives us 5 concrete ways to enter more fully into the celebration of Holy Mass.
Want to go even deeper? Dr. Edward Sri did an entire study on the Biblical roots of the Mass and how we can fully understand and participate in Mass. Check out the 10th Anniversary Edition of one of Ascension most popular studies, A Biblical Walk Through the Mass with Dr. Edward Sri.
Meet Fr. Mark-Mary
Father Mark-Mary was ordained as a Franciscan Friar of the Renewal (CFR) in 2018 and lives at a friary in the Bronx.
The mission of the CFRs is to wholeheartedly embrace Jesus through fidelity to the Church and her Sacraments. Paired with their commitment to prayer, contemplation, and study of Sacred Scripture, the CFRs serve those around them, especially the poor, in the footsteps of Christ.
Discover beautiful music from the CFRs and Fr. Mark-Mary’s book Habits for Holiness: Small Steps for Spiritual Progress, both available from Ascension.
