Father Baker Celebrates Christmas Mass, 1933

To Bishop Clark, From His Humble Servants:
"Prince of degredations, bought and sold,

I love his vestments, what with the OLV image on the back. Very nice.
What a wonderful story of love and faithfulness to Mary. He belongs in the Mother Angellica and Mother Therese crowd.
