    Most/least fav parts of Mass?

    I think the reason many people dislike the sign of peace is because it detracts from the focus on our Lord and can turn Holy Mass into the Sunday social. What's worse is that I went to an Ordinary Form Christmas Mass several years ago where the priest stopped Mass and instructed everyone to...

    Mary, mediator of all graces
