Where were you on New Years?

I have to admit that this new years eve celebration was a little out of the ordinary for me. Usually I do the typical thing like have a few beers, light off some fire works and play video games until 3 or 4 in the morning. This past new years I think I have adopted a great and new pious practice thanks to my good pastor. On new years eve, at the stroke of midnight, we had benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. New years day Mass wasn't bad either, both because every Mass is a solemn event and my friend Travis began to serve the traditional Mass. Check out the pics!

Here's the Mass from the 1st with Fr. Lutz sporting some beautiful Marian Gothic vestments! The young man on the right is my friend Travis. Please pray for him as he is discerning a priestly vocation.Proof that even Gothic vestments can be beautiful.Doesn't Fr. Lutz look regal?

And, of course, the pinnacle of the Mass!

I hope you all enjoyed the pictures from the last few days. Give me some feedback on what you think of posts like this. I'm going to try to get more pictures of parish life here because, if you're like me, these images bring great hope and show the great power that the tradition of the Church holds.

First Solemn High Mass of Fr. Joeseph Tuscan OFM Cap

I've been waiting to post this for a while. On December 30, at Holy Famil Parish, Fr. Joeseph Tuscan said his first Solemn High Mass in the Extraordinary Form for the first time. Here are some wonderful pictures of his first Solemn High Mass. It was a sight to behold!

If you can't tell, we don't have the biggest center isle in the world.
Asperges Me!



Ahhh, contemplitive bliss.

Confetior Deo omnipontenti...

Et Verbum caro factum est.

Finally, a very happy Fr. Joeseph Tuscan OFM Cap with Fr. Kevin Lutz (left) acting as deacon and Msgr. John Cody (right) as sub-deacon.
