The "new" arrangement in the Parish of the Lord of the Divine Mercy in Sikatuna Village in Quezon City, once home of the Traditional Latin Mass community of the Diocese of Cubao.
This is how it looked during the Easter Sunday celebration.
Spot what is missing.
And of course Spot the Not.
First, the usual suspect: Chupungcan altar arrangement. The podium used by "commentators" has been moved into the Sanctuary (once more, I suppose) whereas it was located near the Sacristy door during Fr. Jojo's time. Of course the gorgeous Santos are no longer there, hehe. And I realized, could it be that Fr. also had a hand or say when it came to the floral decorations in the Sanctuary? The one in the photo is a far cry from the arrangement I was used to seeing when I attended the Latin Mass in PLDM.
ReplyDeleteThe Paschal candle is not there...
ReplyDeleteThis is worth lamenting! And the loss of the order and beauty, plus the loss of the altar rail! :(
ReplyDeleteLess sense of the sacred in the post-Zerrudo PLDM.
