Cardinal Cupich Portrait

Can the Laity Interrupt Mass If the Priest Publicly Proclaims Heresy?

. . .Can. 767 §1. Among the forms of preaching, the homily, which is part of the liturgy itself & is reserved to a priest or deacon, is preeminent; in the homily, the mysteries of faith & the norms of Christian life are to be explained from the sacred text during the course of the liturgical year.4.  It is for the pastor or rector of a church to take care that these prescripts are observed conscientiously. . .
