“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

I used to live a half a mile away from there, and at their daily Novus Ordo Mass they gave communion at the altar rail, even after that stupid rubric initiated by the Bishops to force everyone to stand. It is absolutely gorgeous, and modeled somewhat after the basilica Santa Maria Maggiore. They also hear confessions every single day, which was a real blessing at the time. I was teaching at a really bad school. In those days, who could have imagined there would be a Motu Proprio?
I often attend the 6pm TLM on Sundays and can attest that the chanting is superb. F. Bevins should be given a medal for bringing this treasure back to the faithful. He started offering the TLM last November. It is another of those wonderful fruits of Summorum Pontifican and another brick rebuilding the faith.
I hope to make the trip across the LI Sound for it.

I have been meaning to get there for the EF Mass although there are closer EF Masses to me. I often go to confession there if I am in the area (since there is practically always confession being offered!)
Thank you for the links. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve passed through there on the highway going to/from college and later dating my wife. Usually our trip wasn’t Sunday morning, but I do recall breaking the trip for Mass there. I think we ended up at St. Anne’s rather than Immaculate Conception, just out of convenience and coincidence of Mass times.
Am I correct in recalling that St. Anne’s has some sort of Lourdes grotto or other shrine inside, downstairs from the altar? Or am I mixing that up with another church in the area?
