He speaks about the difficult times we live in, and how Satan and his evil forces are in an all out attack on the Lord's Vineyard. Moreover, he proclaims the mercy and love of our Lord as the true medicine of hope and peace for our time. As a priest you may find the things he has to say about our Lord's priest brothers very interesting and right on. Mr. Restrepo's experiences is profound and moving. I think you will enjoy this.<BR/>Have a wonderful Spirit filled day!<BR/>OhevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-1161742988504226472006-10-24T22:23:00.000-04:002006-10-24T22:23:00.000-04:00Thank you for such a fine defense of the physical ...Thank you for such a fine defense of the physical elements of the Mass.

Over the course of the last 24 years at my parish I have seen six rotations. Each priest brings his own "gifts" as they say. Unfortantely, uniform to each, is the fact that each has "tinkered" with the rubrics of the mass. Your parishioners are blessed to have a priest such as yourself who believes in not "tinkering" with what Holy Mother church has asked of her stewards and children worldwide. Hopefully our Holy Mother Church will ask of her Stewards of the Liturgy to make a small change in the not too distant future. I do look forward to the day when, during the Eucharistic prayers, the priest worldwide will look "east" toward the Lord, as they lead us Eucharistically, toward Heaven, where are Savior comes to us during this holy of holy moments here on earth. When this is allowed, then the Fr. Fox's of the world will truly be more genuine in their "Personae Christae" role. In fact, even our Holy Father Pope Benedict has opined that the priest facing east during this moment of litury is the better way to adore our Triune God and reflect the greatest reverence during this supreme moment when Heaven enters our humanity!<BR/>The above should not be construed to mean that I want the clock turned. It simply is relative to the "reform of the reform" that is needed at the moment. <BR/>With the Lord's blessings, keep up the good work, Father!<BR/><BR/>Peace to all!<BR/>OhevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-1161557847395470952006-10-22T18:57:00.000-04:002006-10-22T18:57:00.000-04:00How I wish I could hear a Faith filled homily like...How I wish I could hear a Faith filled homily like that at my church on Sunday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-1161548200394315952006-10-22T16:16:00.000-04:002006-10-22T16:16:00.000-04:00Excellent homily, Father.

It always brightens my day to see people explain why it's important we don't invent things for "our" Mass, when in fact it is the Mass of Christ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
