Spain: Horses Enter a Church (Video)

The fifteenth century San Miguel Church in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, was used on July 7 to produce a video about Carthusian horses (video below).

Asidonia-Jerez Diocese clarified on July 8 that this happened without the bishop’s knowledge who would never have allowed this.

For the bishop it makes no sense to invoke privileges granted to some equestrian orders to ride horses inside some churches when all is about a promotional video, not a religious service.

The local parish priest acknowledged his mistake although the recording was made in a respectful silence behind closed doors after the Blessed Sacrament was removed.

As an act of atonement, the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed for two hours every evening until July 14 in San Miguel.

Look on the bright side. Horses can't commit sacrilege or outrages in a Church so it's not on a par with an LGBTQ Mass which would be a complete desecration.

True........... but the real issue concerns the person who allowed this. This person is the gatekeeper, the protector of The Lord Jesus Christ who 'imprisons' Himself in the Tabernacle. What do his actions teach the laity?

The Holy Church of Jesus is not for horses, dogs, cats, not for films, actors, performaces ... but for our salvation.

Think of the profound respect of the Holy of Holies shown by the ancient Jews. No one could even enter except for the Great High Priest and that only once a year.
In the first temple, the Ark was there containing Arron's rod, the Tablets and a pot of manna. By the time of the second temple the Ark was lost. In the tabernacle of a Catholic Church is the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ …More
