A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: August 2015
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Saturday, 22 August 2015. Do we still believe in . hand missals. It is highly ironic that as one thing loosens another tightens. When there was only the Latin Mass, Priests were constrained in how they said it. Everything is laid down exactly: the space between the hands, the grade of bow, the dimensions of the signs of the cross etc. Now, of course, go to a new Mass and you will see everything… absolutely everything! If you want to use a hand missal – go for it! If you ...

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: Defilement explained
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015/06/defilement-explained.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Tuesday, 16 June 2015. Just in case you were a little confused by the suggestions in the previous post, then this is a good example of how a little note can be added to a Missal. The Altar Missal is 18th century, and at some point an addition has has to be made to pray for the Emperor, Joseph. And so it was written ever so carefully and then delicately glued into the Missal.

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: Vatican II
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/p/vatican-ii.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. I think that it is fair to say that the second Vatican Council is fairly important. I am not a master of understatement and so let me tell you exactly what I mean by that. Primarily I mean that the aftermath of the second Vatican Council has changed the ordinary experience of the Church for her faithful, brought about a crisis of identity in her priests and fundamentally rewritten her theology of episcopacy (what it means to be a Bishop). Consecration of a Bishop. The wo...

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: February 2015
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Thursday, 26 February 2015. Me a cowboy, me a cowboy, me a MEXICAN cowboy! Pope Benedict, ee likes ze Mexicans! Thees new Pope, ee no like us, eh? Whot we gonnna do? Enough of this terrible stereotyping, I feel justified in it simply because it is an ironic comment, and, apparently you can do ANYTHING if it is ironic, and even more if it is social comment. And say that there was no offence meant. St John Paul II, ee likes ze Mexicans too! This is completely the WRONG hat!

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: Dave speaks to Frank
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015/07/dave-speaks-to-frank.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Friday, 31 July 2015. Dave speaks to Frank. Minion Dave goes Bananas at the idea of Biblical Interpretation. In seminary we had a joint course with a protestant minister's training school. We were talking (incessantly) about the Bible, and as Catholics, were referring to the importance that we show to the Sacred Scriptures by quoting Dei Verbum. After a series of exasperated exchanges, this nice Baptist chap said "And anyway, who is this Dave Erbum guy? She [the Church] ...

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: Gearing Up
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015/06/gearing-up.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Tuesday, 23 June 2015. St John Paul the Great - statue outside Notre Dame in Paris. Although most right minded people don't want to think about it, I suppose we should be starting to pray with fervour for this upcoming Synod. So we have our prayers to offer, and I suppose we should start there. We could add an intention to a morning offering or a night prayer. Lots of people will be doing this already. It is a reminder to myself as much as anyone else. St John Paul II.

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: Having an Art Deco day
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015/06/having-art-deco-day.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Saturday, 20 June 2015. Having an Art Deco day. I have always loved the clear lines and shapes of the Art Deco movement. It may be something to do with watching a lot of Agatha Christie's Poirot as a boy, which in the TV version in the UK has the most sumptuous Art Deco sets. I eventually got round to making some altar cards in the style. The Chalice and Paten in the picture are my favourites. I bought them on eBay! Go on Fathers, make yourselves some altar cards!

A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe: The back of Our Lady's Vestment
http://frbederowe.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-back-of-our-ladys-vestment.html
A Chaplain Abroad - Fr Bede Rowe. Friday, 7 August 2015. The back of Our Lady's Vestment. This has now been finished. And it looks quite spiffy. From the bottom: the lowest panel shown Ss Simeon and Anna, who prophesied when Our Lord was presented in the Temple. Above them are Ss Joachim and Anne, the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary. You will notice a certain coat of Arms (! Above this is Our Lady of Sorrows. The angels are on either side of the nativity scene. The roof is the roof. Books by Fr Bede.
