St. Mary Major a "little" church? One of the four great basilicas and the only one that's the original building????? That's a plum assignment.
No, St. Mary Major is no small church building. But it is a very small role, pastoring a flock at a parish notable only for its church building and history. It’s normally a task for a parochial vicar.
I have to disagree with both of you. No, St. Mary Major is no small church building. But it is a very small role, pastoring a flock at a parish notable only for its church building and history. It’s normally a task for a parochial vicar. Plum assignment? Sure, if you’re straight out of the seminary. It’s gotta be at least as thrilling as being a museum tour director.
