FATHERS! TODAY ends 40% off clerical Guayabera shirts (and there are
regular Guayabera shirts too, and Chacabanas and Panama hats, fedoras, etc.
for anyone)

Hey Fathers! How about a clerical Guayabera shirt? I have one. Great for
hot weather.

I always feel bad for good Priests who inherit these ugly 80's Churches. Its great to see that there is still hope for some of them with a little renovation. Makes me wonder what will happen to the Cathedral if a good Bishop inherits the Archdiocese of LA.
A splendid "Before" and "After".
A brief moan, not to be taken to seriously :
How is the priest going to celebrate "ad orientem" with those flowers on the floor in front of the altar.
Wouldn't the chairs look better placed sideways, facing the altar ?
No communion rails !
Otherwise, a very clever (and very lovely) transformation.
Awesome.
I love my church here, but it suffers from the same malady as the one we attended in Downingtown; it looks like Mike Brady designed it.
I'm hoping it's a staged renovation project where they add the altar rails later.
