So, Archbishop Piero Marini, Master of Pontifical Liturgical Celebrations since 1987, is now President of the Pontifical Committee for International Eucharistic Congresses. He has been replaced by 42-year old Rev. Guido Marini, Chancellor of the Archdiocese of\u00a0Genoa. He is also Archdiocesan Master of Ceremonies and spiritual director of the seminary.
\nUpdate:\u00a0 <\/u>The Whapsters are keeping up:<\/a><\/p>\n

Holy Whapping Television Network (HWTN) will shamelessly exploit this change of circumstance with tonight’s 8 PM premiere of the madcap, family-friendly sitcom Too Many Marinis!,<\/strong> the cornerstone of this season’s new programming block. (This means Basilica Improvement with Tim Allen as Charles Borromeo and Richard Karn as Al Gonzaga will be moved to 9:30 on Tuesdays).<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Update:<\/u>\u00a0 John Allen has a piece up. <\/a>
\nLiturgy-related:<\/u>
\nCheck out this post from Patrick at Creative Minority Report<\/a>, in which he reports (of course) on the consequences from a bishop’s visit to his parish. Bishop Murphy (Rockville Centre) came to the parish in the spring for Confirmation. The pastor reprinted the letter that the bishop wrote afterwards:<\/p>\n


\nRecently I had the pleasure and the privilege of confirming young men and women in your parish. It was a beautiful moment and one that I very much appreciated. I thank you for the warm welcome that you gave to me and also for the way that you and all those who work with you strive so much to make the experience of worshiping the Lord such a fulfilling and fruitful one.
\nAs I mentioned to you during that day, I am very concerned about the comportment of the faithful in your parish church prior to the celebration of the Eucharist. I am not blaming anyone. I am not trying to say that anyone is at fault. I am simply saying that the comportment is not compatible with proper preparation for the celebration of Mass. This interferes with the ability of the people to enter into the liturgy and have the kind of active participation that the Second Vatican Council calls for.
\nIn my judgment, a major reason for this is the fact that the Blessed Sacrament is reserved in a separate chapel that is so removed from the main body of the church that no one knows where the Blessed Sacrament is. I don\u2019t mean that literally but I mean that conscious awareness of\u2019 the presence of the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament is lacking to those who enter the main body of your parish church. This is further hampered by the fact that the music ministry is set up in front of the doors into that chapel where the Blessed Sacrament is reserved. That means that anyone who wishes to go and pray needs to go through the paraphernalia of those who provide music. I find this problematic.
