#12807 Can I Attend an SSPX Mass? Latin Mass and Mortal Sin - Tom Nash
1 seconds Posted Jul 16, 2026 at 11:00 pm.
– Can I go to Mass at an SSPX chapel?
– Why is the altar elevated and the people in the pews tend to sit lower? Does that mean the people are lower than the priest?
– What can be done where all churches would have the option to celebrate the Latin Mass? Was Summorum Pontificum retracted?
– Can you explain why it’s a mortal sin not to attend Sunday Mass?
– Are we supposed to make the sign of the cross after praying the confiteor?
– During Covid, Masses were shut down. Was this something historical where the mass was shut down?
– I’m a new Catholic. Should we be raising our hands during the Our Father?
– How is it called a Traditional Latin Mass if it started in Aramaic and Greek?
– Can you receive communion with venial sin on your soul? What if you receive communion without realizing you had committed a mortal sin?
– What if one can’t find a Latin mass outside of SSPX? Where should they go?
– I believe the hand holding during Our Father did not start as imitating the priest but became natural after a retreat.
