Accusations have emerged alledging that the Diocese of Greensburg has issued a blanket prohibition on the celebration of the Novus Ordo Mass in the ad orientem manner – whereby the priest faces the altar rather than the congregation.
The claims were prompted by statements from the Mason‑Dixon Latin Mass Society and the Catholic-media outlet Catholic Sign of the Cross, which is affiliated with LifeSiteNews, that asserted that “according to Bishop Kulick’s office … the ad orientem Novus Ordo Mass has been BANNED throughout the entire diocese".
