What is this?



It's modern French liturgy. To the Pimpernel it seems a little liturgically and theologically confused.

  1. So...one of these reverend gentlemen is dyslexic and/or colour blind? Or maybe they're bifurcating observances -- one is keeping the feria while the other keeps the feast of a martyr or somesuch? Votive office of the Holy Spirit said with the ferial collects under a separate ending?

    As to the utensils, well, perhaps it's safer not to speculate. The mind fairly boggles at the possibilities...

  3. Food preparation in France is also a religious event. Perhaps, the clergy are there to prepare a holy banquet and have come to bless the ingredients. Of course, ad versus populum, just as the late Julia Child would have done.
