zunshynn Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) I came across this video on a blog, and although it says that it was taken at Steubenville, and it was uploaded on March 25th of this year... most of the people in it don't look college age, so I'm wondering if it actually is or if someone is only saying that it is to discredit the school?

Laudate_Dominum Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) LOL! That's the FUS field house where they have summer conferences, FOPS and many Masses. Everything in that video was commonplace when I was at FUS. Well, the age of the ppl in some part of that video makes me think it was from a summer conference, maybe the charismatic conference. Edit: I missed it the first time but the beginning of the video indicates that it is the charismatic conference from back in 2006. There are a number of FUS big wigs in that video too btw.

zunshynn Posted April 15, 2010 Author Posted April 15, 2010 Wow... I knew they had some issues... but wow. Just wow. Wow.
Apotheoun Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Yep, that is FUS. I miss my discussions with Dr. Hildebrand.

You can go to school there and just avoid all that stuff (best to go to Mass off campus), but if I had it to do over again I'd probably just pick a school with a more traditional culture.
Apotheoun Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 While I was at FUS I attended some of the most reverent liturgies of my life as a Catholic. I loved the little Ruthenian parish of St. Mary in Weirton WV.
zunshynn Posted April 15, 2010 Author Posted April 15, 2010 At least... the monstrance and the cope used for Benediction are nice...

Apotheoun Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 (edited) I attended a total of five liturgies on campus during the two and a half years that I was at FUS, and two of those campus liturgies were Ruthenian liturgies held in the rather ugly school chapel. Edited April 15, 2010 by Apotheoun

[/quote] Yes. A caravan of about 6 to 12 students (most from the appropriately named "Trinity East" dorm) went to St. Mary's Ruthenian Church in Weirton for the liturgy of St. John Chrysostom every week. It was a difficult ten minute drive. Edited April 15, 2010 by Apotheoun

jeffpugh Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 Wooow... interesting. I'm not surprised, though. It was fascinating reading the peoples' body language. Tireless emotion-festing for a whole weekend. It looked like it's a majority of elderly. I hate to say it, but thank goodness. I could rant on, but I don't want to upset the sensibilities of some PMers who are into this sort of thing. I'll just quietly continue my revolution
