“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."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

The Director of Liturgy at the NAC is Fr. Kurt Belsole, OSB. He is the former Rector of St. Vincent’s Seminary in Latrobe, PA, from where I graduated last year. Fr. Kurt used the saying, “Say the black, do the red” often in our liturgy classes and in his formation conferences, and I feel that it is the best advice for priests. Let us pray that priests will follow these words!
Not that this has anything to do with the blog entry, but I was baptized at St. Vincent’s 30 years ago. My family moved away when I was 9, but I’ll always consider St. Vincent’s to be my home. I miss that church. It’s been 21 years but I can still remember looking up at the beautiful stained glass windows during mass. And the smell of nuns baking bread Sunday mornings is still fresh in my memory. I really do miss it. Congratulations Fr. Bill on your recent graduation.
Say the black, do the red! A great sentence. Has anyone in my parish already
heard this sentence? Since 27th of August we pray the Rosary for the
Vocations, Priests and a correct liturgy. We changed the people´s Altar also with a little trick into a temporary high altar. We have no correct Priests, so we have to be concerned laypersons…
The only thing we can do is praying. And that we do. At my blog I have pictures, but the post
is in german..
I’m sure this has been touched on here before, but I can’t find it: can anyone point me to the correct reference that lays out at what points during Mass the priest may add words not in the Sacramentary? I think many priests themselves are not aware of this.
