  2. It's stunning! and although pricey, not as much as many I've seen. I recently saw a chasuble that I would have purchased in a heartbeat if I could have. The price tag was $2,500! I almost just wrote "purchased for our pastor" but really, these things are to give glory and honor to our sweet Jesus, not the priest.

    I hear that St. John Vianney spared no expense for such things. *wink*wink*
