We continue with your photos of Gaudete Sunday liturgies and Rorate Masses, which arecoming in! Yesterday’s post was mostly the latter, today, we have several more rose-colored vestments. There will be another of these, so once again, if you sent photos in and don’t see them here, they will be included in the next one. Thank you all once again!Rorate Mass celebrated by the rector of the cathedral, Fr Bryan Jerabek, which seems to be the first ever in Birmingham. The photo of the elevation shows nicely how the sun was beginning to rise as the Mass proceeded. (Courtesy of Mary Dillard.)
