Visited St. Boniface in Anaheim and it is a great church

I was in Anaheim this weekend with my family and we decided to go to the 11 AM Mass at St. Boniface in Anaheim. What a terrific Mass it was, an almost perfect Vatican II Mass in every way. The Church is very beautiful with stained glass windows of the Seven Sacraments and then mosaics of the Stations of the Cross and what looked like the Mysteries of the Rosary. It also has a very beautiful organ and the cantor woman was excellent also. The homily was half done by a seminarian named Benedict and before someone gets into this discussion, let me say that orthodox seminarians have to give these homilies or they will be shown the door, so I would rather have them do the homilies and become priests, then lose them and just have the progressive priests. The seminarian gave a wonderful "talk" on what it means to be a Catholic - "to believe that Jesus Christ is our one and only Savior, and that he is THE only gate to the Father" and to believe in the teachings of the Catholic faith given to us by nearly 2000 years of prayerful men and women guided by the Holy Spirit. Thank you St. Boniface Church for being the Catholic voice in the entertainment mecca that is Anaheim. Here is their link:
