That means I’m going to have to get up at 3:00 now. Well I guess I better go to bed soon then, because I aint’ missing this!

Why do you have to get up that early? Maybe I’m missing something…does that mean we need to be there 2 hours early for a sit? :eek:

Naw…between him waking up and getting ready, he’ll probably need to leave around 3:30 to make it there around 6am…one hour early.

I think that I will probably just sit in my truck until folks start coming in…those pews are not the most comfortable in the world…

See you all there…setting my alarm for 4:30 am.

Oh, and I just went on EWTN’s website and printed out the booklet for the Mass.
 
It was beautiful.

However, just like last time, around the time of the consecration, there were technical difficulties.

:hmmm:

By far the most beautful Mass I’ve ever been to. I’ll be lucky if I ever get to attend a Mass like that again. I’d never been to the Shrine before, and it is so much more beautiful in person. Deo Gratias!
 
Semper…during communion, I looked around as to who wasn’t going up for it…I think I figured you out…😃
 
It looks like I have to settle for one of the two encores as well because I just couldnt be up by 5am.

You didn’t happen to sit directly in front of me did you?

Nope…

exactly to the right of you on the other side…end of pew, light pink outfit…I was alone…there was a little old lady that sat next to me, she knew latin like the back of her hand. I had a print out of the booklet and we shared. She was so sweet…

You stayed for the Rosary?

And if that was you…who I think you are…you were looking around like a deer in headlights, I could see how amazed you were with the Shrine…

glasses, dark brown hair, goat tee? Sat about in the middle on the left side and the end of the pew???

No, I left right when the Rosary started. I had my girlfriend with me, and she wasn’t particulary feeling well this morning. We got there at 6:00 and after sitting in the pew for about three hours, she was ready to go home and sleep it off. Bummer, because I probably would have stayed all day if I could of. However, I’m just glad she got to see something different from the banal Mass at the parish where we attend RCIA. It was absolutely the best experience of my life!

Well…nope that wasn’t you…shucks! I thought that I had you figured out.

So…what did you think?

I was sitting on the left and was wearing a Blue Blazer and a houndstooth patterned tie with khaki pants. So if you saw someone dressed like that at any point, that was me. I added a little more to my last post while you were responding. It was the greatest experience of my life! This was one of the times where I just couldn’t wait to receive our Lord in the Eucharist. Possibly only one more month to go until I can. If not then, then at least at Easter.
 
It was beautiful on TV, can only imagine how blessed everyone there was…lucky dogs…:highprayer:

Wow that was a really good guess on my part…that’s who I thought you were. I was sitting behind you and noticed the shirt shop on your sunglasses…Am i right?
I loved it too, by the way. I can’t believe I got to experience all of that. I was going to stay for the rosary but realized I had forgotten mine in the car. Anyway, I had to drive on home so I decided not to stay. I’ll definitely be going if there’s a next time.
So awesome…
 
I saw the encore and it was pretty good, the only thing I would suggest is that the camera men get a little more practice because there were some wacky shots here and there. Other than that it was great, especially the homily.
