Absolutely Sensational Video About The Sacred Music Symposium!

Jeff Ostrowski · February 20, 2020

The following video—produced by JPachecoFilms—is staggeringly beautiful:

There is a hidden message at the end of that film, where it talks about not knowing where God is leading us. Cardinal Newman made great sacrifices when he became Catholic—and Pope Leo XIII rewarded him at the end of his life by making him a Cardinal. We never know what God has planned!

16 September 2021 • Fulton J. Sheen

Here is a photograph of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen celebrating Mass in Jerusalem. That image was included in the “Fulton J. Sheen Sunday Missal” (1961), which was edited by Father Caramen and has an IMPRIMATUR by William Cardinal Godfrey, who served as Archbishop of Westminster from 1956 until his death in 1963. The Fulton Sheen Missal can be freely downloaded as a PDF file, thanks to Corpus Christi Watershed.

15 September 2021 • Offertory Problem

I submit to you that nothing is gained by these slight variations in the repeats for the Epipany Offertory. The edition is by Carl Ott, a musicologist. Almost nothing is about Carl Ott—as far as I can tell, nobody even knows when Carl Ott was born or when Carl Ott died.

A Truly Insane Liturgical Practice

In 2013, I began speaking of an insane liturgical practice which was allowed by Pope Pius XII—but nobody realizes this. If you tried to do this at the Traditional Latin Mass, you would most likely be run out of town on a rail. However, for the record, the FULTON SHEEN MISSAL (edited by Father Caraman) specifically mentions this type of participation … and you can see for yourself.
