Feast of the Immaculate Conception

One of the Holy Days of Obligation and I am lucky enough to work on a college campus that has a Campus Ministry which organizes Mass for the students and staff during the school year. Fr.Tom was the celebrant. He is a kind man. someone brought a reproduction of a painting of Our Lady , Song of the Angels.
We often look at a wipe board and a room divider when we attend Mass in the Union. My eyes constantly strayed to the painting. We sing a capella. We are not very musical. We could use some angels among us, but no one complains.
I asked Fr. Tom about the reaction to the changes in the English Language of the Liturgy. He has not heard any negative comments at all. He smiled and suggested perhaps we should change the wording of the Liturgy every five years or so in order to keep everyone on their listening toes. This Holy Day was a holy day.
