Hmmm. Looks very much like the article that Time just wrote up and is being disussed here:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/1339368/posts

But they left out a few things from the Time article: "Instead, the Liuzzos are attending standing-room-only services like St. Mark's teen Mass, complete with a pop-music ensemble that could be mistaken for one of the area's rollicking Christian rock bands. "This I was not prepared for," says Liuzzo, who flashes a smile at a recent service as an altar girl marches a crucifix past 1,000 parishioners."

Teen "Masses", "Christian" rock, altar girls, etc. Catholic revivalism, anyone?

We had Mission Week starting Jan 16. The Priest was Father Larry Richardson. His theology was CONSERVATIVE, his presentation was dynamic. It was the most awesome experience I have had in a while. The attendance for every night during Mission Week exceeded attendance for Christmas Midnight Mass.
