Rorate Mass Photopost 2023 (Part 1)

Gaudete Sunday is still three days away, but our annual Advent photopost series is already off to a great start with Rorate Masses and the feast of the Immaculate Conception. We also begin with a very beautiful iconostas in a church in Greece. Be sure to have your cameras ready for Sunday, and send pictures of your rose-colored vestments in to photopost@newliturgicalmovement.org; remember to include the name and location of the church, and any other information you think important. Regem venturum Dominum, venite, adoremus!
