  • When I was in the Novus Ordo, the parish I was in had beautiful Rose vestments, obviously from long before Vatican 2.  The visiting priest (we did not have a resident priest), however, brought his own vestments--and they were HOT PINK!  It was horrid!  Believe me, if those vestments your priest has are hot pink, you don't want to see him in them.
    I remember what the vestments looked like and I disagree with Father's description of them as "hot pink", but those were the words he used. But I think they may have been a more normal pink and not truly rose as described earlier in this thread. I would not myself describe them as "hot pink" as I picture that color in my mind, but they could be described as "pink." Since I was used to them I just assumed they were the right color but now I learned that I was wrong.
    R.I.P.
    Please pray for the repose of my soul.
