That was actually where I first came in contact with the MC's, at their house in Vienna.

Normally I'm wary of the idea of home Masses too, but more as a feeling and a reaction to the abuses that can go along with them. This one was an exception; and Juli did do what she could to make the secular space sacred. <BR/><BR/>It did have the effect of making the Mass stand out for what it is in itself. I mean that there were no statues; no relics; no glorious stained-glass windows; nothing to set the mood. There was only the Mass, and the holiness/reverence that is part of it and not dependent on holy surroundings.<BR/><BR/>As to Mother Teresa - she talked very little, and then did a lot. I do very little, and then talk a lot. :)Peggy Hagenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12848658078823644791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2896079340882265623.post-48815242961670460832009-01-09T16:59:00.000-05:002009-01-09T16:59:00.000-05:00I've just read a few of your posts and I like your...I've just read a few of your posts and I like your style of writing.<BR/><BR/>Wasn't there a church nearby where this priest could say the mass? I don't thing secular spaces should be used unless there is a strong reason. <BR/><BR/>On an unrelated note, I love how mother Theresa combined eucharistic adoration with helping the poor. <BR/><BR/>You've reminded me of some things mother Theresa said in your posts, so thank you!<BR/><BR/>(sorry if my writing in English is not very nice)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
