“This blog is rather like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” - Fr. Z

Beautiful!
I am blessed to assist a Dominican Rite High Mass tomorrow evening–assuming whatever it is I am trying to catch doesn’t disable me.
Father, your blessing please…
How beautiful that is.
The lighting reminds me of the lighting in Santa Maria in Aracoeli but the architecture itself looks newer than that one. It’s lovely.
Thanks for the picture and happy blog birthday!
Fr. John
Perhaps this Bishop is about to pray an indult Mass? … Sigh
Happy birthday
Thank you, Father. What a magnificent church!
