“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."

You’ll poke yur eye out kid!
The monstrous monstrance!
Consider Greenville, SC, also in the path of the totality. Home to Prince of Peace parish which offers the TLM daily and Our Lady of the Rosary parish (a beautiful new church), home of Fr. Longenecker and the Shrine of the Divine Mercy of the Southeast.
Anyone remember Princess Beatrice’s hat from the Royal wedding a few years back?
If such a mass were to take place in Greenville, I would definitely be present.
[A priest can’t just show up somewhere. He has to be invited.]
That monstrance looks like a wind turbine. It would make Baby Jesus cry. It makes me cry as well. It is NOT fit for containing the beauty and splendor of the Real Presence of Our Lord. He deserves the only the very best and most beautiful monstrance.
The eclipse has many rural areas concerned with the expected influx. Said areas are not equipped to handle such an event, with all the expected camping, sanitary, and law enforcement issues.
Think an event on the order of the yearly ‘Burning Man’, but in many locations and without the resources or experience for effective planning, either by authorities or attendees.
‘What do you mean there is no food for sale out here officer?’
‘You should have googled that … Sorry no cell service either? You should go home, but you can’t because that one lane highway back to civilization is jammed with city folk who thought they would enjoy the eclipse, but forgot to check that there are no car charging stations this far out. ‘
Pray for all those involved in this event.
A total eclipse of the sun on the eve of the Immaculate Heart/Queenship of Mary in the 100th year since the Fatima apparitions?! I’m not sure if I should be excited or fearful…
May the Lord forgive me, but that monstrance looks more like a fried egg gone wrong than a repository fit for our Redeemer’s Body.
Ugh.
Might I suggest my alma mater, Benedictine College in Atchison, KS. Scientists from the Vatican Observatory will be there. https://www.benedictine.edu/eclipse/index
As Catholics we don’t concern ourselves with celestial events though, do we?
In my former life I practiced astrology, my understanding now is that all of that is to be left behind.
And my apologies if I’m misunderstanding the spirit of the post….
Perhaps saying a Mass with Père Marquette’s chalice? Look for Kaskaskia Island. It is separated from the Illinois mainland by the Mississippi River. Right on the line and longest duration. I expect to be there. Permission can be had.

[That would be very cool.]
