  1. The family is once again intact, with your spiritual father back where he belongs! Congratulations to you, and all of us share in your happiness.

    It was great to hear Fr. Kenyon preach for the first time. I must say, I am very proud of our Dean!
    A terrific, meaty sermon full of exhortations to come up higher, to seek perfection in following Christ. I hope to post it as soon as he can send it to me.

  3. Ioannes says:

    Again, congratulations to Fr. Reid, and all that.

    But let’s move on to an important topic.

    What was the sort of cake served after the Mass? Did you get to eat the cake? Was it good?

  5. Excellent photos. Who were the 2 groups of Sisters representing?

  6. Carol LaSalle says:

    The consecrated Catholic religious sisters would be on the left in the photo. I believe they are a new order founded in Ottawa.

    Are the Servants of the Sacred Cross a Catholic community now?

    • grahame says:

      It seems that I will have to make inquiries elsewhere regarding their position in the Church

      • Stephen M says:

        Well it couldn’t hurt to ask elsewhere. Perhaps the Dean would be able to give you more information.

        But I also note that you waited only 15 hours for a reply, on a blog which does not typically attract a large number of comments. It’s more than likely that anyone who would be in a position to answer your question hasn’t even seen it yet.

      • Foolishness says:

        I don’t know what their position is in the Catholic church, except that many of the sisters are Catholics.

      • BCCatholic says:

        No, SSC has not been recognized as any kind of official Catholic association of the faithful.. But many of the members have been received into the Catholic church.

    Excellent photos!
    Does Anglican Use observe traditional liturgical colours for Septuagesima? For ordinary rite it is green, for ordinary – violet. (I ask because of common curiosity)

  9. Sheila Armstrong says:

    My Aunt who recently came into the Roman Catholic Church in Ontario sent me the link to these nice photos, and she told me it was a very beautiful Mass. I am glad that someone has identified the Servants of the Sacred Cross. When I asked my Aunt who they were she couldn’t remember their name and thought they were the Married Nuns of the Sacred Heart or something like that. Married nuns must be an Anglican thing because to the best of my knowledge, we don’t have them in the Roman Catholic Church. I think that the Catholic Church feels that if you are married you already have a vocation. So do the Anglicans allow for married women in consecrated religous life in the same way they allow a married priesthood? You’ve certainly brought something very new and confusing along with you and I am sure I’m not the only one who finds it all contrary to what we have been taught all these years about our beloved Sisters. Will there be other religious orders for married women as well?
