That snippet of the prayer for the Pope from the Eucharistic Prayer used out of context just seems odd on a coffee mug, to be honest. You have to read it a few times before you get what's going on. It would be more marketable if it simply said "Pope Francis" or "The Pope of Hope" or, in order to really entice the target demographic, "Don't blame me; I voted to re-elect Benedict XVI".
somewhat serious question ... is Father serious with the wish list items ? I never paid much attention to them till now but come on Bose noise reducing headphone Bose????? my gosh I just use the cheap dollar tree ones or ear plugs .. I just dont get it

This isn't going to go over too well with a lot of Father Z's readers.
ReplyDeleteWhat is also arriving is taxes....April 15... in case the Pope events made you forget.

ReplyDeleteI like James' last selection too. Maybe Fr. Z could make them up and sell them under the counter.
