We have never heard of such a mass. A mass for Michael Jackson will be held in one of the churches in Knurów on Wednesday, January 17 at 5 p.m. The ceremony is to take place in the parish of St. Anthony of Padua in the Krywałd district. These reports were confirmed by the chancellor of the metropolitan curia in Katowice, Father Tomasz Wojtal. More texts from the world of music can be found on the home page
“I talked to the parish priest. An elderly parishioner approached him and asked him for such an intention. She said that she felt the need in her heart to pray for this person. The priest accepted this intention, such a mass will be celebrated. It is about good, about the fairness of this intention, so in this case the old lady was not a provocation on her part – which I also tried to verify. She felt such a desire, such a need to pray for Michael Jackson. This person orders a prayer very often Holy Masses for the dead,” said Fr. Wojtal in an interview with the portal
“It’s also a way to atone for sins.” The priest distances himself from the controversy
The priest emphasizes that although he does not know what religion Jackson was, it does not matter. Prayer can be for various intentions. The priest puts an end to speculations regarding the controversies surrounding the artist’s life. He only emphasizes that “the Holy Mass is also a way to atone for sins, to help this person, if we believe in life after death, so it is also a way of giving such a gift, such help for this specific person.”
Internet users applaud. “Will they pray for Rammstein too? How much am I paying for?”
Internet users also commented on this matter, not hiding their enthusiasm. “It seems to me that this will be the most crowded mass in Knurów”, “Such an intention is a very good idea. Jesus saved everyone and knows the life of each of us and will not condemn anyone, but he always stands on our side and helps our soul by the good hearts of people”, “Will they also pray for Rammstein? How much do I pay for it” – we read the comments under the official information from the IKNW-iknurow.pl website on Facebook
It turns out that this is not the first case of such an original mass celebrated in the Silesian Voivodeship. Last autumn, in one of the parishes in Katowice, the faithful prayed for the Polish national team’s success in the match against the Czech Republic as part of the qualifying rounds for the European Championships, which will take place this year. Can you glorify God with music and sports? Yet how.
