Benedictiones Mensae: Blessings at the Table...Funeral of An Old Friend: What is a Catholic Burial?



@@@@@@@@@@@@@

+ Congratulations to Mr and Mrs. Bob Walterscheid on their 61st wedding anniversary. For those who don't know, the Walterscheid family has been at St. Anthony since the beginnings of the parish. The second stained glass window (I believe) on the north side is the Walterscheid family window. It's the one school boy Bob imagined that the Blessed Virgin looked like she was sliding into second base!

+ Father Jirak received a gift from Dan and Becky Fruend: A biretta that fits! 

Stacie Alvarez
+ A well informed and bright woman contacted me about the theological differences between the two forms of the Latin rite, or more precisely, what the opinion of this blog's authors were on the theological differences. I shied away from responding publicly as this can get very messy with extreme views on either end book-ending the work-a-day Catholic point of view. Any thoughts on this matter?

+ I just noticed (I'm so busy I am not online much these days) that the missionary family Alvarez are expecting another child though I am sure you all already knew that! Stacie is 38 weeks along at the time of her Friday Facebook post. Their blogs have links in the right column of this page though they update Facebook more often.

..and now for the necessaries.

Please note: St. Anthony Catholic Church is one of only two churches celebrating the Traditional Latin Mass (EFLR) in the Wichita area. Though this blog is loosely centered around this parish and it's members, Venite Missa Est! is by no means, in any way an official voice of, or for, St. Anthony Parish or the Diocese of Wichita. Venite Missa Est! is strictly a private layman's endeavor.
