However, there is no provision for omitting the proper vestments. There is, however, an allowance for the celebrant to wear white vestments for any Mass, which makes it easier to pack for travels.

Shocking is the only word to describe how shocked I am that the Marxist priest who Francis "rehabilitated" would celebrate "Mass" in such a manner. <br /><br />Just SHOCKING that this priest who said "Jesus Christ speaks through Fidel Castro" would be infested with such clericalism to think that he knows better than the Church and will decide how the Eucharist should be celebrated. I am just so shocked. <br /><br />Never in a million years would I ever dream that orthodox, traditional, Catholic, Francis would be associated with such as priest. Because Francis is sooooooo orthodox and traditional.<br /><br />Meanwhile the superior of the Franciscans of the Immaculate is basically imprisoned. How long till we see Francis say "Mass" in just the same way.
