Septuagesima Sunday: High Mass in the EF with Fr. Jeffrey Keyes at Star of the Sea

It has been awhile since we’ve been at Star of the Sea Church in San Francisco, but we recently had the opportunity to be there again for Fr. Jeffrey Keyes’ High Mass in the Extraordinary Form last Sunday, January 24th. Father Keyes, who’s currently based at St. Mary’s Church at Norwalk, CT, was in town for a few days, where he got to attend the Walk For Life West Coast the day before. The church was a bit crowded – more than usual – due to a bus load of visitors coming from St. Anne’s Church in San Diego, who were also at the Walk for Life. Folks from Father Keyes’ former parish, St. Edwards at Newark, CA, were also there to see what has transpired with him since his departure last year.

Here are some of the photos taken from the High Mass with Father Keyes. More can be viewed at our smugmug photo gallery.
