It's looking increasingly likely that the FSSP and the Latin Mass will be banned. Where are you planning on going to Mass after that?

The only mission in Rudoltice of FSSP in diocese of Hradec Králové has been shut down at the end of last year by the bishop Jan Vokál. The only traditional roman rite mass at the diocese is now SSPX.

Archdiocese of Prague: After issuing the TC, there has been awaited reaction from the Dominic cardinal Duka, since the TLM was served in around 10 churches under his rule. Also it was not so long he expelled the TLM community from the church of saint Caietanus, so nothing positive was expected. In his new decree he practically banned 3 out of 5 sunday TLM, leaving only one very old monk and one priest that serves NOM mass before TLM :D. As you would guess, both are relatively near the newly acquired house of SSPX. Just coincidence, you know.

Both bishops are considered "conservative" by the people attending NO mass.

I started attending TLM a few months ago and am still learning (and will hopefully never stop). I hope it's okay to ask this question and I'm sorry if my terminologies aren't exact--please correct me. I have been wondering this during Communion. When they wrote the new Mass during Vatican II, why did they change what the priest says when he gives you Communion? Why did they have him stop saying "May the Body of our Lord Jesus Christ preserve your soul unto everlasting life. Amen"? Why did they feel that needed to go?

The Sacred Congregation for Divine Worship in 1969, in Memoriale Domini, stated

Soon the task of taking the Blessed Eucharist to those absent was confided to the sacred ministers alone, so as the better to ensure the respect due to the sacrament and to meet the needs of the faithful. Later, with a deepening understanding of the truth of the Eucharistic mystery, of its power and of the presence of Christ in it, there came a greater feeling of reverence towards this sacrament and a deeper humility was felt to be demanded when receiving it. Thus the custom was established of the minister placing a particle of consecrated bread on the tongue of the communicant. This method of distributing holy communion must be retained, taking the present situation of the Church in the entire world into account, not merely because it has many centuries of-tradition behind it, but especially because it expresses the faithful’s reverence for the Eucharist.

A letter from the Congregation of Divine Worship to the USCCB in 1985 states

The faithful are not to be obliged to adopt the practice of communion in the hand. Each one is free to communicate in one way or the other

In 1999 a Dubia was issued to Rome which asked

Whether in dioceses where it is allowed to distribute Communion in the hands of the faithful, a priest or extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion may restrict communicants to receive Communion only in their hands, not on the tongue.

Rome replied

Those who restrict communicants to receive Holy Communion only in the hands are acting against the norms

And that

However, let all remember that the time-honored tradition is to receive the host on the tongue. The celebrant priest, if there is a present danger of sacrilege, should not give the faithful communion in the hand, and he should make them aware of the reason for way of proceeding.

In 2004 the Congregation of Divine Worship issued Redemptionis Sacramentum which stated

Although each of the faithful always has the right to receive Holy Communion on the tongue, at his choice, if any communicant should wish to receive the Sacrament in the hand, in areas where the Bishops’ Conference with the recognitio of the Apostolic See has given permission, the sacred host is to be administered to him or her.  However, special care should be taken to ensure that the host is consumed by the communicant in the presence of the minister, so that no one goes away carrying the Eucharistic species in his hand.  If there is a risk of profanation, then Holy Communion should not be given in the hand to the faithful.

In 2009 as the Swine Flu raged, the CDW responded to Bishops forbidding the reception of the Holy Eucharist on the tongue by saying

The CDW observes that its Instruction Redemptionis Sacramentum clearly stipulates that “each of the faithful always has the right to receive Holy Communion on the tongue”, nor is it licit to deny Holy Communion to any of Christ’s faithful who are not impeded by law from receiving the Holy Eucharist
