With our last Gaudete Sunday and Rorate Mass photopost of this year, we surpass last year’s record with the same number of posts (five), but more photos and more churches (almost 50), in twelve countries and fifteen American states. Once again, our heartfelt thanks to everyone who sent these in, and don’t forget to have your cameras ready for Christmas and the following feasts. We wish you all a most blessed and peaceful Christmas Eve - today you shall know that the Lord will come, and in the morning, you shall see His glory.

Gaudete Sunday and Rorate Mass Photopost 2021 (Part 5)
Gregory DiPippoSt Mary’s Catholic Parish – Helsinki, Finland
The following four sets all come from one of our favorite photographers, Allison Girone. I wish we had room to include every one of the many beautiful images she sends our way, but that would required a whole separate blog; I did here include here one particularly nice shot, even though it’s off topic, of a veil at a wedding ceremony.St Mary – Conshohocken, Pennsylvania (FSSP)
