  6. Prayer thread for our Pope, bishops, priests and Archbishop Vigano.

    In this time of trial. They all need our prayers regardless of what we think about individuals. As Vigano said himself; the pope has on several occasions asked us to pray for him. Let's do that. Lets pray for the pope and the church our mother. And for God to cleanse Rome for all filth casting...

  11. Timing of Chasuble Vestment

    At Roman Catholic masses, I've noticed that priests usually vest fully, including the use of a chasuble, in the sacristy prior to the opening procession.
