SEPTEMBER 8TH: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR MOST BLESSED MOTHER! πŸŽ‚ πŸŽ‰ 🎁

 Please note my cuff link and that I am wearing no watch:


September 8th is the Feast of the Nativity of our Blessed Mother. In the photo, I am about ready to celebrate Mass for the birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary at Holy Family Church, Hilton Head’s, 8 AM Mass. The large modern stained glass window behind me is of our Lady of Guadeloupe. Next to the ambo is a statue of Our Lady of Fatima. The new pastor at Holy Father acquired the very nice Marian chasuable that I am wearing.

The chausable should be light blue!

Blue bandings, light or navy, are licit in the USA but not blue of any shade for the chasuable itself. I find it odd that there isn’t a universal allowance for blue vestments to honor our Lady, especially the lighter blue ones and the darker blue ones that could be used during the season of Advent.

I’m for a universal indult but only for Marian feasts (not votive masses eg our lady’s Saturday)
