The future depends on diocesan priests
My good friend Fr B – whom I hope to see soon – sent notice of a gathering of priests and future priests in New Jersey. A group of diocesan priests got together with the mighty Fr Pasley of … Continue reading
Prodigies apart, people are born simply to love and to be loved.
I have wondered from time to time whether or not how many prodigies the likes of Bach have been aborted, creative healers such as Salk or poets such as Eliot have been ended before their birth. Leaving aside the prodigies, … Continue reading
WDTPRS REVIEW: Editions of the Roman Missal with the new, corrected translation

They don’t know which version to purchase and wanted my insights.
One priest wrote with additional information.
Here’s the list:
Liturgical Press Ritual edition
Midwest … Continue reading

QUAERITUR: More than one language during Mass. Fr. Z rants.
It fascinates me how often questions on a similar idea come in at the same time.
From a priest and from a student (edited):
Here in Ireland, it sometimes happens that, when Mass is being
celebrated in English, some parts are prayed in … Continue reading
QUAERITUR: Can we go through a “haunted house”?
From a reader:
Is it okay for a believing Catholic to go through a “Haunted House”
