from Proud 2 B Catholic's event in Methuen MA. Something really awesome happened during the Mass. A few minutes before Mass was due to start, the people up on the stage area asked everyone to get quiet in preparation, and the whole crowd went totally silent. It was an intense and reverent silence, and it was outside with typical outdoor concert type seating. Then, as the priests were approaching the makeshift outdoor altar, a fragment of rainbow appeared in the sky, just above the center of the crowd. As the celebrant started the opening prayer, clouds covered the rainbow. The rainbow re-appeared again during the Mass at the Gloria, the great Amen, and most wondrously, at the beginning of Communion and then was covered for the final time at the end of Communion. A marvelous sign of the Covenant, no?
