Chicago Auxillary Bishop Perry offered the Pontifical High Mass at the Faldstool at St. Josaphat at 9:30 this morning. What an event! The church felt packed. The Mass was magnificent, and the music beyond words, with the combined choirs of Assumption/Windsor and St. Josaphat in the choir loft with Wassim Sarweh directing. We also has the "angel's voice" flown in from Montreal, as we often do for special occasions. Bishop Perry's homily on the parable of the dishonest steward (Luke 16:1-8) was measured, devoid of lame jokes, and direct in its application. The bishop was served by Deacon and Subdeacon along with two assisting priests, one as Master of Ceremonies, as well as our regular team of servers. It was a fitting and glorious conclusion to the three-day Latin Liturgy Association's convention in Detroit, with registrants from all over the country, including three I counted from San Francisco. Deo gratias.
More on the specific talks given at the convention in due course.
