Now, my dear readers, you probably remember me posting about Fr. Liberal before? Well, if you haven't ... just look at my previous posts ... I can't locate the link, but anyhow.
Ever the new priest has been there, I have been there a few more times recently, to see how he is doing. These are the things I have noticed
- When Fr. Liberal was there, at Lent, he would remove all the holy water. This Lent, there is more holy water in the church than there ever has been before!!
- The Rosary Chapel has been taken care of more than what it was when Fr. L was there.
- Our Lord is reverenced more.
- He does confession whenever, even when he is most busy. Fr. L barely ever did confession, and when children would make their first confession, he would get his sister (not a nun) to "help him". He would also do it behind the altar. This new priest, does private confession and barely ever makes use of the "Reconciliation Room" that a former liberal had installed.
- He is more friendly, and always wears his clerical collar, except for this one instance (when I believed he was sick, I could be wrong).
- He is very, very pious (as all people, not only priests should be).
This new priest says the vernacular (Novus Ordo), but I much rather the TLM. Besides that though, he is very orthodox. I also checked their bulletin. Their collection has gone up!! I will soon post it.
Oh yes, and please forgive me for not posting yesterday. I was with my Grand Father again, he is not getting any better, I am afraid. Please pray for him!
