How nice. I will be going on a discernment visit there at the end of this month. It will also be my first Traditional Latin Mass; i'm very much looking forward to it.

I very much like the partition between the altar and the congregation. It's like it should be--the altar is Heaven, and the Congregation is earth.

While I am grateful for the liturgical reforms of the later 20th century, I do keep remembering that one of my grandfather's relatives had a heart attack [i]and died [/i]while kneeling at the communion rail on Christmas morning.

(And so I guess she was one of my relatives too but it's too many "great"s to work through coherently ...)

Wow. What a way to go!

found a new collection of pictures of Carmels and thought I'd post it here, [url="http://www.flickr.com/photos/catholicsanctuaries/collections/72157625802189689/"]http://www.flickr.co...57625802189689/ [/url]

Thanks for this thread! So many of these are rare pix of different Carmels. I thought I'd add that, if anyone is seeing For Greater Glory (and I highly recommend it!), the Dallas Carmel was founded by a Mexican Carmelite nun fleeing the Mexican socialist government, which is the basic story of the movie.
