Did Your Priest Wear Rose Today?

Yes, he did - and explained their relevance - as he did last year.

Yes he did. But, like the pic, it was more candy floss pink.

Our parish priest never wears rose but the three assistant priests we've had in the last five years all do. The parish priest celebrated Mass yesterday so he was in purple.

Dymphna said...

He wore purple. I didn't expect anything else. He's the kind of guy who would never wear pink unless his superior ordered it, thank God.

Matthaeus said...

Yes, and so did the deacon and subdeacon. Good old Blackfen!

Patricius said...

We have two masses at the same time in our parish and our priest "drew the short straw".

Lolalola said...

Yes he did!

Mater mari said...

Yes, he certainly did, and explained the significance to the children. In our former parish the parish priest refused to do so but was happy to light a rose candle on the Advent wreath without any explanation, either in church or in the newsletter. And why exactly is Dymphna thanking God that her priest wore purple?

No he didn't but but said that in our chapel no rose vestments were unable as otherwise he would have done so.

Sorry typing too quickly.

Rose vestments were unavailable not unable!
