in the Saint Vincent Ferrer
Church in River Forest.
The wedding mass, celebrated
by Father Robert Bullock, Chief
of the Newman Apostolate and
head of Catholic youth activi
ties in the Boston diocese,
involved several innovations in
liturgy along the lines advocated
at the Ecumenical Council by the
late Pope JohnXXIII. Non-Catho
lics were asked to join in the
ceremony as full participants,
and the service included tradi
tionally Protestant themes and
theology.
In another departure from cus
tom, the commentary was read
as a single piece at the be
ginning of the mass and was
made up of a joint statement of
faith by the Catholic bride and
Protestant bridegroom. The
theme developed by the couple
was a paraphrase of William
Faulkner’s Nobel Prize Speech of
1950: that the power of love and
the strength of human goodness
shall “not only endure, but also
prevail.* During the ceremony
the groom stepped into the pulpit
and read a modern translation of
Corinthians 1:13. The entire mass
was in English.
Assisting Father Bullock in the
mass was Father Luigi Donanzan

guitars, bass violin, drums, and
other instruments attimes--in-
terspersed the ceremony with

The processional was Purcell’s
“Trumpet Voluntary in D,* played
by organ and trumpet. Another
major organ number was
Brahms’ “Variations on a Theme
by Haydn.’ Folk songs played by
the band and sung by wedding par
ticipants and guests included
“Shout from the Highest Moun
tain," “Of My Hands’(offer
tory), “Suzanne," and “Lord of
the Dance."
The bride, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Antonio Pasin of River
Forest, wore an old-fashioned,
ivory-colored gown of pure silk
with high neck, long buttoned
sleeves, and a simple A-line skirt
with a full bustle from the waist
to the floor. Her long veil was
hand made by Olga Asta, world-
famous lace maker of Venice,
Italy, in a pattern of small flow
ers and leaves. Her bouquet was
of lllies-of-the-valley.

was her sister, Mrs. Stephen
