Immaculate Music #28 – Christmas in Bloomington, In  ( 04min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Well today  is the last day of Christmas decorations at our friaries in the Franciscans of the Immaculate. Yes, we are slow to take them down, but since we are a Marian order, we extend the Christmas season to the last feastday in the Joyful Mysteries which is  today, the Feast of the Presentation. Anyways, here is a beautiful video of the Christmas lights and decorations at our friary in Bloomington, IN. You will also get a good view of their new altar and sanctuary refurbishment. The music is by the Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate.

Ave Maria!

Fi News #66 – Rare Abominable Snow Friar spotted and video taped at Bloomington, IN ( 03min) >>> Play

Ave Maria!

Yes, I know another video of sledding friars. Apparently, I was supposed to post this one first and the one I posted first was simply to give the “friar-cam” views that weren’t included in this one. Well, I guess I lost track. Its hard to keep up with these sledding friars from Bloomington, IN! Anyways, this one is done to some rather humerus music and features some classic friar wipe outs and beards full of snow. Enjoy!

Ave Maria!
