I had a note from a reader about excellent news from Star Of The Sea parish in San Francisco.
Firstly, as always, thank you for your blog! You are my first bookmark under my Catholic folder, immediately followed by ChurchMilitant. [HA! Take that Michael! o{]:¬Þ ] A couple of websites have nearly dethroned you on occasion, but WDTPRS always prevails and remains king of the bookmarks.
I am writing to let you know that our parish, Star of the Sea in San Francisco (who you likely heard about when we made the switch to male-only altar servers), [I do indeed. And I recall that libs had a spittle-flecked nutty!] will be moving to Ad Orientem worship for all Masses starting on Ash Wednesday! Our parish produced a video featuring our pastor Fr Joseph Illo explain why we are making this change and I thought I would share it with you:
Please say a prayer for our dear pastor when you can. He is a true man of God and we are so blessed to have him here in San Francisco.
In the video I really like the point Fr. Illo makes about the priest “going away” during Mass, even to the point that people might not recall which priest had the Mass!
Fr. Z kudos.
