In honor of a priest friend who is celebrating his birthday today, I present Charles Marie Wdor’s famous organ tocatta.

By the way. If you compare this with an original recording of the composer playing the work himself, this organist has the tempo just about right. It was not meant to be played as a race.
Today in Omaha, 12 men are ordained to the holy priesthood for the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter.
Please offer your prayers for these men today.
God bless them all and may Our Lady, Mother of Priests, keep them close to her Immaculate Heart always!
Someone sitting in your pew at daily Mass when you arrive?
Walk up to him, stoop closely near his ear, and whisper quietly:
“Excuse me, but God promised me that pew three thousand years ago.”
It’s worth a shot.
My daughter went thrifting and spotted this…
And of course she had to buy it.
Well, friends, the journey is at an end…
The four birdlings have flown.
Now it’s up to me to grab some rubber gloves and get rid of this thing.
