Performative and Theatrical music and lights during Christmas evening mass
Pastor of the parish had lights dimming and brightening during parts of the mass. Before mass he sang a revised version of a secular song 'Halleluja' with rewritten lyrics about the nativity. Granted this is not during mass, but still this and the lighting changes is in direct opposition of what Pope Benedict XVI declared about music and lights needing to be reverent.
