What’s next a Weird Al Mass of Eat It?
It sounds bootylicious.
I loved this church from childhood. Grandeur. Sanctity. The Reformation’s hymns translated into the king’s English. Now, as a old man nearing the end of my run on earth, I feel nothing but sadness for where she has gone.
As for those who dragged her there, may God see fit to judge them in his infinite wisdom. Blessed is He, the true judge.
November 9, 1985 I was confirmed at Grace Cathedral. Bishop Swing anointed me with oil and slapped my face.
I watched that church in the Diocese of California fight from that day forward for inclusiveness and for a prayer to consumate homosexual marriage in the actual prayer book.
Not at all surprised by this latest.
The Beyoncé mass joins a long list of themed Eucharistic celebrations, among them the U2charist, the Dr. Seuss-themed “Seusscharist”, and the Clown Eucharist. Some feature artists’ popular music interspersed within an otherwise normal prayer book service, while the more outlandish have clergy dressed in costume.
