“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.”

Wonderful pictures. I really enjoy seeing these dedicated men serving the faithful in our military. May God bless their ministry to our brave soldiers.

Father J,
You are doing great work out there. My prayers are with you.

Great Pic’s! They brought tears to my eyes. I pray for their safe return.
During my time in service I always hoped and prayed for this and it is here. Thank you Pope Benedict.
This is awesome. The shortage of priests serving the military is very serious. My son, while in the Navy, had a very tough time finding priests, and good ones at that. Of course there isn\’t much room for anything on a sub!
All of God\’s blessing on this dedicated chaplain!
The Chaplain looks like a Marine… my son, who is a Marine, sure wishes there were more EF Masses available. Sadly, the liturgies on military bases are often quite “banal, on-the-spot productions.”
Who is He? Father………………???
The Navy provides the Marine Corps with its chaplains (same with its medics/hospital corpsmen). The chaplains and corpsmen that travel with the Marines, even in the field, are sailors.
BTW, the chapel looks like its onboard a ship (notice the hatch on the starboard side of the bottom picture).
As for that priest, Bravo Zulu!
1) A very beautiful red fiddleback vestments;
2) Laced alb;
3) High and tight haircut;
4) Latin Mass
You can’t beat that.
Gloria in excelsis Deo!!!
Dear Fr. Z and all those who have posted: thank you for the very kind words (not sure I deserve them!) and for posting the pictures, because maybe those who see them will be prompted to pray for all these Sailors on the Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71). Stu, it was good to hear from you! Everyone, thank you again and be sure that I will remember you along with the good Fr. Z. at Mass! Fr. Charles Johnson
As a sailor aboard a different U.S. Navy Carrier, this makes me:
1) hopeful, and
2) jealous.
Perhaps I should put in a request to cross-deck….
