100% agreed!

Yes I as a catholic all the way from AustraliaI I agree. The church is beautiful, the reredos is stunning and the liturgy is reverential. I have looked at the website of this church and I'm so impressed at what this parish has to offer. When I was a RN I nursed an Australian Carmelte Friar in the late 1980s who spent time with his order in the USA. He told me about this church which he attended some times, he said that the gentleman ushers wore black suits and white gloves and would show worshippers to a pew. How wonderful!!!

Who is this wonderful Organist? Is that a Skinner Pipe Organ or a famous Casavant Pipe Organ

[@thewilliamtan]

Maks Adach and Nicholas Haigh. The organ is new by Dobson of Iowa, originally a Skinner. Few pipes were retained.

What's with all the silver on the altar?

[@Ray-fx2np]

I’m thinking the same thing. Must have some symbolism..

[@Ray-fx2np]

As an eastern rite Catholic, this seems more catholic than the Roman Catholic rite. I do have one question though..what is the reason for the silverware on the altar?

[@colinlavelle7806]

I think it's an Anglican tradition?
