From the days when the priest "faced the wall and spoke in a foreign language" as my junior year high school religion teacher (1967) taught us to regard our former worship. I last employed my skills catching some of the last papal installation on CNN -- they still trot it out once in a while at big stuff, and pretty much anyone under fifty just stands there looking blank. The last time I did any in a church context was back at the abbey, when some of us recorded some at night before the director of the schola cantorum had to leave for new "pastoral duties" half a continent away and was replaced by a conciliar committee of a sociology, German, and theology professor, all pretty handy with guitars, photographed in action and published in our yearbook with the caption "We need a new church -- with no pews!"Past Elderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10541968132598367551noreply@blogger.com
