Nihil Obstat Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 If you feel comfortable doing so, please post pictures of the parish at which you normally hear Mass. Either your own pictures, or something from the parish website, etc. Here is my parish today, Quadragesima Sunday, at around 2 pm, during the Pater Noster. I love seeing the pews nice and full, with plenty of families and young kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarysLittleFlower Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Cool! I'm not sure what is Quadragesima Sunday? I go to TLM too but for us it was just called first Sunday of Lent. Maybe I missed the other name. Is it the same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I see a few pictures with Fr. Franco there. He is currently working with a priest who was with us for some time, Fr. McDonnell. Apparently they are watching Dr. Who together right now. 1 minute ago, MarysLittleFlower said: Cool! I'm not sure what is Quadragesima Sunday?

Quadragesima is referring to the sequence of Septuagesima, Sexagesima, Quinquagesima. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopefulHeart Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Pictures of my parish are scarce, but there's a video of a Requiem Mass that was said at my parish a few years ago. Normally we have a (beautifully reverent) Norvus Ordo, but this Mass was said in the EF. Here's a screenshot, and the video is linked below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC8KXZ643yM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's our diocese's proto-cathedral, a mile or so down the street from my work parish. They use the communion rail and during pretty much any special feast day they use the high altar. The acoustics are pretty amesome as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NadaTeTurbe Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 My parish have nothing special - no splendid liturgy, no crows at the mass, nothing, but I love it for this. I'd never change of parish (I don't like "parish shopping") The main church was built somewhere before 1098. It was extended in the XIIIth century, painted in the XVth century. Sadly, a german plane destroyed some painting, that had to be re-done. It's really beautifull. Sadly, a lot of church in my diocese have been built in the XIXth century - it's so ugly. I'm happy to live next to a prett church. It helps to pray. 8 hours ago, Basilisa Marie said: This is where I work: http://www.lourdesvan.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Lourdes-Panorama.jpg This is where I go to Mass on Saturday nights: http://www.columbian.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/923969-Catholic-treasures8.jpg This is the parish where I grew up (and still, technically, am a member of): http://stthomascamas.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/1540516_10152495415054942_1184606091_o.jpg Since the pics are kind of big, I'll just leave them as links.

I mean, Jesus kind of looks like he's making an evil face, but aside from that I don't see anything horribly wrong with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
