Shane,
You sound like me! My parish is h...Dear Br. Shane,<br /><br />You sound like me! My parish is historically very low church. Luckily my immediate predecessors made some good changes (e.g. making mass the main service every Sunday). But in terms of outward appearance the church is very plain and low. So I see part of my vocation is to help "beautify" it in a Catholic way. Maybe you can do the same where you are - design an altar piece, make a shrine, etc. The "Cambridge Movement" taught us that art, architecture, and liturgical design have an important role in teaching and maintaining the Catholic faith. God bless you in your vocation(s)!<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />J. Gordon Anderson+J.

I'...sounds like a big project, but good for you. I'm newly ordained and am placed in a Canadian Church. I You caught my attention because you're a priest and and artist... I am also an artist though I'm trying to discover ways of bringing art into my priestly vocation. I'm also an Anglo-Catholic though the parish I've been placed in isn't really, so I'm trying to adapt to that and make improvements where I think I can. Pax.<br />Br. ShaneBr.
