Not sure, but this might be a buttercup. If it’s an Eastern Lenten Rose, all parts of this plant are poisonous. It’s to be found here in North America at an old friend’s house some hundreds of miles round trip on the “Day Off”. There’s no fear in that house of poisonous plants. They’re happy to have them there for their beauty. Our Lady is also fearless. All she ever saw outside of her Son was poison. She just prayed for us to be close to her Son. There’s no fear of the fear-demic at that house. We shouldn’t have any fear even to die and… and… go to heaven. Speaking of heaven…
While there, I had a long chat with another old friend, an extremely capable wood worker, who wants to get a move-on regarding the Altar Rails I mentioned to him months ago. I haven’t been there in a while. Lots of things happening. We chose the wood appropriate to the rails. We talked about the balustrade. We talked about installation, construction, and the next steps I need to do, as in taking pictures, getting exact measurements. That’s a non-poison flower for the Immaculate Conception.
exact measurements and pictures worth a thousand words.
I know. I know.
We’re thinking about 26″ balustrades. As equipment and time becomes rarified, we’re thinking about just purchasing the balustrades. The short height is relative to the base of the altar rail right across the sanctuary, not to mention the top and right fancy rail.
Oh, Father! God bless you abundantly; you are installing an altar rail. That is wonderful!!! Even as our beloved nation is sinking into the abyss, you are preserving respect for the Lord!!
