  • Even the murals look N.O. with their guitars.:laugh1:



    Lol...  I totally missed the guitar.  🤣

    By the way...  The two on the right side in the picture are actually not guitars but rather a lute on the top and a lyre on the bottom.  😅

    Maybe they play sacred classical guitar like this:



    Or this:

    "Jesus, Meek and Humble of Heart, make my heart like unto Thine!"

  • I don't mind a lyre/harp as that's found in the Old Testament with King David.  But a guitar/lute is just cheeeezy (and guitar is my main instrument).  A vast sum of money was poured into that church and they paint guitar murals for your edification?  Goofball city.

  • Sadly, the seminary altar suffers from sheer blandness.  And look at all that dead wall space.  Large, vacant emptiness everywhere you look.  Maybe they could have placed Our Lady on a pedestal, easily visible?  And Our Lord on the cross resembles a work of modern art.

    I agree that there is too much bland wall space. However, I do know that this is only meant to be the temporary chapel of the seminary. A proper chapel for the seminary is in the works and prudence wouldn't dictate spending a lot on something temporary.

  • Now that's a beautiful altar in a beautiful church. 
    Yes, indeed. The consecration is at 8AM EST.  This is supposed to be the link:
