Today, my family and I attended Mass in the city of Boulder, CO in the beautiful church of the Sacred Heart of Mary. I’m just as confused as I always thought the Blessed Mother had an Immaculate Heart, and that “Sacred” was reserved for her Son’s Heart. Either way, we inadvertently plugged into our GPS “Sacred Heart of Jesus in Boulder” and found ourselves 6 miles and 16 minutes away as Mass was starting. Fortunately, Our Lord took care of us.
It seems the Mass started a few minutes late and also it was a solemn high Mass – not your typical six candle affair but a full on “priest, deacon, sub-deacon” Mass. as a result we walked in just in time for the beginning of the Epistle (which was so appropriate for our days). Nonetheless; here are the pictures.
The last picture was from the base of a mural in the narthex. If you’re as confused as I am about the mouse dressed as a bishop/abbot, you’re not alone. Perhaps someone can explain the significance.
Until then…
St. Benedict, pray for us!
