Thy Geekdom Come Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 So my friends at the Newman Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln hooked me up with this video through You Tube. It is definitely cool. The procession had the priest carrying the Jesus in the monstrance under a canopy, seminarians in cassocks, and around 200 students in it, all chanting and singing. They went by the stadium, the libraries, the dorms, frat row (the frats were busy making floats and playing heavy metal and having huge parties)...I wish every college campus on earth did this: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PhONIfWAp8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PhONIfWAp8[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

son_of_angels Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Lincoln, eh? I bet some Fraternity of St. Peter folks were there as well, then. That part of Nebraska is the beating heart of the traditional movement in the United States IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FSSP doesn't usually come out into the diocese much, from my experience. Lincoln is a pretty good diocese. They need a nicer cathedral (boy is theirs ugly) and they need to cut out the cliquish "our parish against yours" stuff (never experienced it, just heard about it a lot from those who belonged to normal parishes, since I was at the Newman Center and didn't deal much in the diocese at large).

Old_Joe Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I was there!!!! I wasn't in the video though. We were featured on Life on the Rock last thursday.

I don't know about the parish cliques. There is some friendly rivalry that I know of, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

son_of_angels Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Yes, the cathedral is very ugly. I saw it when I went to the FSSP ordinations this summer... By the way, I LOVE Eucharistic processions, and this looked like a really awesome one. I do sometimes wonder though if we do it to be seen, or perhaps we need to be seen to evangelize, hmmm?
