"Tis Himself on Not so Insent replay

[Himself]

Last week, as many of you know, I was on the New Amsterdam. It was a wonderful week! I was the priest on board and was not recognized as "himself" on these boards. No one came up and said "Father Himself, what is your real name?" We made stops at HMC, Grand Cayman and Key West. We missed Costa Maya because of swells and high winds that would have made docking a bit dangerous. It was a wonderful week and was sorry to see it end.If you have any questions T will answer them, if I can.

Did you have a roll call, Father Himself? Or were you travelling incognito?

[Susie51]

The itinerary sounds nice. HMC is such a lovely island.

Father, with a Sunday to Sunday cruise did you have an interdenominational service?

Do you enjoy when you get to meet CC'ers when being clergy aboard the ships?

 

Happy you had a good week and all went well. :)

Welcome back.

I was the priest on board and often in clergy clothes. Averaged forty at weekday Masses, 70 at the Sunday Mass and 165 Saturday evening.

The title of this thread should have been "Tis Himself and not so Instant Replay."

Glad to hear you had a good cruise. Sorry there were no CC'ers on board to know who you were.

Looking forward to meeting you when we cruise on the Statendam in July.

Very nice, most HAL Priests don't offer that. I HAVE to sail with you someday.

On the Noordam in January, the Priest led an Interdenominational Service that was well attended. The service was good and his homily was interesting for those who could understand him. The poor PA or microphone that he was using and his accent made it difficult to hear and I was not far from the front of the Main Lounge. Not, in my opinion, a good venue for a religious service for any faith!

Isn't the Nieuw Amsterdam lovely?

 

I have never attended a religious service onboard, but I would be sure to be there if I knew you were the celebrant, F. Himself.

 

Thank you for your positive posts.

We only had a few at this service but it was on the day of departure. The Lord told Poter: "Feed my sheep!" HE DID NOT SAY: "Count my sheep!"

Right now I am at Ft. Lauderdale airport. The flight is delayed due to heavy fog in Chicago. At the moment no one can land so they are holding us here in beautiful Ft. Lauderdale.

We took off at 8:50 rather than 7:30 as scheduled. We landed at 10:37 rather than 9:30 as originally scheduled and then I had to go to a deanery meeting. I am kind of tired now and I need to unpack.

Welcome back, Himself. Back to the real world, ugh.
