I received a nice note from a priest reader who … well… let him speak for himself:
I attach some photos taken in the monks’ refectory at the St Louis Abbey on Easter Sunday, where I and two of my colleagues from the Liturgical Institute had the privilege of making a Holy Week retreat. When we saw this mug appear, we knew we’d have to let you know.
I think there are many priests out there, those dedicated to rather poorly considered liturgical abuses, who would appreciate one of their own!
