Woman Takes Over Offertory In Bishop‘s Mass


San Diego Bishop Robert McElroy, 66, USA, presided Pentecost Mass facing a big computer screen which connected people via video-stream.

This turned McElroy's Eucharist into a Zoom-conference. The Mass was co-presided by Auxiliary Bishop John Dolan and Vicar General Michael Pham.

McElroy went as far as incensing the computer screen. The screen-population said the general intercessions.

During the offertory, McElroy sat down, and a woman in alb took over (46´). She performed the "offertory" which - luckily - in the Novus Ordo is abolished.
