Therefore every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.
ha! I love that! I always feel very awkward at the 'Sign of Peace' rather preffering to just kneel and get on with preparing myself for Holy Communion.
As it happens, I live in the Chicagoland area. It's been some time since I've been to SJC, but I have to say I found the liturgy there wooden, VERY wooden. Something has been lost in the decades long dis-use of the Tridentine Mass, for I remember my fondness for it and the devotion it kindled in me. I don't know how else to put it, but when I've assisted at Tridentine Masses over the past few years, my impression is of correctly programmed robots going through the motions. What is worse, these robots are very pleased with their own correctness. Something is missing, but what?

Father,
You must.
We can hit both basilicas and public Liturgy of the Hours and a Sox game, too.
