So, from this, I am led to the conclusion that we have clergy who are 1. buying clerical shirts, so that when they are in public, they may actually appear priestly. God forbid. 2. we have altar boys who will be vested in cassocks and surplices (as well as priests). Evidently, this can't be true, seeing as how Sr. Sobala declared that "only priests can wear cassocks." Ah, yes, that makes perfect sense, especially when you consider that for each cassock listed as a "best seller," one sees "server" in the description.
Better still, along with the cassocks, the surplices, and the clerical shirts, clerical collars are a "top-selling" item. Still more evidence of how twisted Rochester is - when was the last time you saw a priest grocery shopping in a collar? I'd go with 1958, personally.

Yesterday, Pittsford Wegmans.
I once saw Father Leone dressed as a Priest should be dressed, standing in line at Walmarts with just a can of drano in his hand. I looked at the can and asked him, "don't you have people for that?" He said, "you are looking at him."
I know who the first comment pertains to. He wouldn't want me to say here.
Fr. Leone is definitely one of the shining examples of the priesthood this diocese has.
Drano is a job for the pastoral administrator.
Sr. E - I read that quickly and thought you said, "Drano is a drink for the pastoral administrator."
My bad.
I have seen one at the Apple store in Eastview Mall! It may have been Fr. Carpenter.

It may have been him. I have heard that he is an Apple fan.

I saw the bishop wearing his clergy wear at the Greece Barnes & Nobles. I don't usually have much positive to say about him, but that is one thing that I have to give him respect for doing.
I saw him once in the Pittsford one. No collar, but clearly in clericals. Yes, a semi-nod of the miter to Bishop Clark.
"Give me Microsoft products any day of the week!"
as if this blog doesn't have enough controversy around it already, Dr. K feels the need to kick it up a notch!
I would love to go, but there's no way I can take off a whole week w/out involving the family. Take lots of pictures and maybe even do some live blogging.
Worship me you mere mortals!
I love this. The alter server gloves as used at High Mass for carrying the Crucifix. Nice touch! I think, I should donate a pair to the Latin Mass community. It's the only thing missing.
Yay, for properly dressed altar servers (cassocks and surplices, instead of those stupid albs). Thank God for OLV and the Latin Mass community.
