Guess where I was today Ping!
Father Z has a couple of his sermons here.
He is full of energy, eucharist, enthusiasm, the face of Christ and evangelization!
His mother unexpectedly showed up today also. She had been ill.
Now will he do something about that heretical organization, Oregon Catholic Press?
I can just imagine. In February we got a new Bishop, but the Mass was by invitation only. But, it was broadcast on EWTN live, so we all did get to “see” it. Not the same as being there.
I attended the Chrism Mass just last week, almost as good I’m told.
Wonderful day for you, I am sure. May God bless and guide your new shepherd.
What, in your opinion, constitutes 'doing something'? What, in your opinion, constitutes 'doing enough'?
I ask, so that your objection may be objectively measured.
doing something would be excising the most egregious examples from the music books. Doing enough would be to bring the music in line with the teachings of the Magisterium. Which it is not.
I think the entire enterprise should be disbanded. It is organizationally corrupt.
that works too
Amen to that.
Gotta love a godly engineer. (At least I do, I married one.)
Thank You! I thought I was the ONLY PERSON left in the USA who still saw that bunch for who they really are. We use their book in our parish, and it is awful. As a former cantor, lector, and choir director, all I can say is, “Gag me with a spoon!” Some Sundays, it isn’t even worth picking the ugly thing up. There won’t be a CATHOLIC song in the bunch. ...sigh... Going to one of their workshops is a very interesting lesson in how the communists gained their footholds in the Central and South American countries. Ghastly.
He is directly in charge of it. I pray that it will be abolished and he will mandate good music for all.
The music yesterday was mostly in Latin, but with some English.
A lot of Alleluias!
Not only is OCP organizationally corrupt; it is also spirutually corrupt. It’s sad when a Catholic Church has to pay a royalty for a song that was sung that was composed by a homosexual who outed himself recently.
Horrors on being in the same room as some of these guys!
There was no music yesterday by Haas, Hurd, Schutte, et al.
It was all classical, theological, spirutally moving and wonderful!
Also — I despise the ugly art on th covers of the missallettes as well as the songbooks.
I can find much better art, and I KNOW annalex could!
Pray for Archbishop Sample. He has a big mess on his hands here.
I just remembered something from yesterday. Closing thank yous to his family for being there. (Both his mother and his sister will be moving to Oregon!)
And a very humble “Pray for me.” in the mode of Pope Francis. I had tears in my eys during part of the ceremony.
