Some of us worship in a building and congregation is 105 years old, made of wood. It also has mice. According to scholar Alan Jacobs, “only about one in ten English people took Easter Communion with the national church in 1801.” What changed things in terms of church attendance and participation in subsequent centuries, although perhaps not our own? Was it The Black Rubric or the Ornamentation Rubric? I somehow think not, but rather that what your (Henry Newman’s) description of St. Benedict depicts.
