Last week I think Mahony was also there. For this Mass I don’t think Mahony will be there. But I could be mistaken.

Mahony wasn’t there. It was a lovely service.

Right - I'm guessing there weren't any vestal virgins with incense bowls or dancing deacons.

I wonder if the congregants there were confused by seeing an actual Catholic mass.

Straight-up Mass. Lovely music gave me goose bumps. Homily got back to basics. “Please come back next Sunday; I promise you a shorter homily.”
