In case you missed it, check out the photo gallery from last night.
Ping!
A happy ending! I’m so pleased!
Hallelujah!!!
Great victory, but our Lord can turn anything into a victory.
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Truly a miracle. Amen!
It’s like the Feast of Corpus Christi in my old hometown, 40 or 50 years ago. The streets got quiet. People knelt on curbs, sidewalks, porches. The Lord was honored.
Outside of EWTN on Corpus Christi and my parish on Holy Thursday evening, this is the only other time I see a procession.
Won the battle but, if you look at everything else going on in that Godless Hellhole, we still aren’t winning the war.
BTTT!
The honor and glory is God’s and God’s alone.
No, but this was very important. Harvard dropped the ball, because this was not a matter of “free speech,” which would be something like the Satanists coming out and saying “I hate the Catholic Church” or “I hate ...whatever...”
It was a parody of a Catholic rite; I doubt that Harvard would have supported a parody of the Muslims gashing themselves on the head during the day of the ascension of Mohammed’s horse or whatever it is.
Also, notice that the Satanists know where the truth is - and that’s where they attacked. But fortunately, this seems to have galvanized Catholics.
**As the procession made its way slowly down Massachusetts Avenue, some passersby dropped to their knees before our Eucharistic Lord; others joined in the hymns. I could not count the people who crowded into the MIT chapel to start the procession, but I know that many others joined along the route. When was the last time that the city of Cambridge, bastion of secular liberalism, saw such a strong display of the Catholic faith?**
Things that bishops dream of.
**A Boston Globe photographer captured an image of the crowded church, and several moving shots of the procession. The young people kneeling on the stone steps, the reverent hush in the church, the booming resonance of the Tantum Ergo all radiated the vigor and joy of the Catholic faith.**
God bless them one and all.
Tantum ergo Sacramentum
veneremur cernui!
But the seeds of new or renewed Christian/Catholic faith has been planted.
Traditional Catholics have continued the custom and hold processions such as this one multiple times throughout the liturgical year. Note the large contingent of traditional Catholics from Still River, SSPX, and TFP who were leading the procession in defense of Our Lord.
Thanks for that link.
That video left me in tears...
