A wedding like no other (Catholic)

Post by Geocacher »

A Catholic Priest sings his version of the Hallelujah in front of the bride and groom:

This really took me by surprise, a big wow. I have been to Catholic and Mormon weddings, but never had anything like that in this video. This would really make marriage awesome. I been always single though, and continue to be.

What do you think of the priest?

I do like traditional weddings, but have not been able to attend one in the temple, even my Dad, when he had one in the temple, sat out in the waiting room. The Eternal Marriage thing, I never got into, for I always felt it way off. My TBM Sister and BIL, when they married in the temple, I could not attend that, but only the reception. All the way back to the 1970's I felt at odds with Eternal Marriage.

LDS wedding practices have been a long simmering issue in the LDS church. I have to give credit to the Catholics that certainly can beat the Mormons at solemnity and ancient ritual, but still allow for a lot of inclusion. Atheists, Jews, Muslims, and Mormons can all attend a Catholic wedding.

Wow, that was impressive. I would have loved something like that at my wedding! Instead you had to "use your temple voice" to avoid offending God, presumably.

I really liked this. Was so unusual, yet refreshing. I couldn't understand all of the words, but it was customized to fit the couple being married. +1.

Flying nuns, singing priests. Catholics certainly are not stick-in-the-muds.

That was truly ingenious both now and when the video of Father Ray Kelly went viral in 2014.
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.
