Can’t get away from it. It’s my ‘satiable curiosity. So tell me about Pentecost at your place (whether you are Catholic or not!)
At our place – red bunting up and down the aisles. Music: Come Holy Ghost (entrance), One Bread, One Body ((Communion) Holy God We Praise Thy Name (closing).
Sequence was sung by the cantor – it was the version in the missalette, but no directions for us to join in (which is fine, because the less procedural instructions during Mass the better), so I don’t think anyone did.

Cantor chanted Veni Creator Spiritus at Communion.
Eucharistic Prayer I
Lots more people there than usual, which is probably due to the fact that it’s Assuage-Your-Guilt-And-Go-To-Mass-With-Mom Day.
Homily began quite effectively, I thought – alluding to our recent experience of earthquake tremors in these parts. As the homilist described it, a startling and rather indescribable experience – far out of the norm.
He continued, speaking of how most of us value consistency and tranquility in our lives. We like things to stay the same.  But that is not God’s way. Are we ready to be startled out of our complacency and led by God in new and different ways?
As usual, very brief, but effective.
(What I could grasp of it – my ears are sort of wonky this morning, maybe because of the low pressure weighing down on the area – and Father’s voice and his microphone just don’t work well together. He speak from the ambo, but doesn’t use the ambo mike – I wish he would, because I have no trouble hearing the lectors, but once he gets up there I have to be perfectly still and concentrate really hard to get what he’s saying)
Fr. Philip Powell’s homily:

If you would return to the locked room, shaking in fear, then make an idol of our past, worship the cold heart of a museum-Church and fall prey to the Devil’s own pride. Likewise, if you love the locked room and its dark fear, make an idol of this age, worship the Zeitgeist, the ebb and flow of human fantasy, and fall prey to every snake that tempts you. However, if you will to do what Christ has ordered you to do, do it all with the Church, do it with us, the body and soul of the Church, the Holy Spirit among us, with us. Do this, and peace be with you “for in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body” to be Christ, the one Christ, the only Christ, to be the suffering servant of our Father’s needful creation.
