Easter Vigil: Participants Morph into Lemmings and Sheep (Video)

A so-called "Easter Vigil" at St Antonius Parish in Gronau, Diocese of Münster, Germany, included a dance for everyone with some attempts at singing.

The performance took place after the priest had distributed communion in the hands. It was led by a lady dressed in a white robe, who stood in front of the Novus Ordo table. The priest, behind the table, and the congregation followed her like lemmings.

The woman explained how to proceed: two steps to the left and clap three times, then two steps back and clap again three times (etc.). As if this was not silly enough, the Novus Ordo victims began to sing sequences from Sydney Carter's "Lord of the Dance" (1963).

The priest expressed surprise at the willingness of the sheep to participate in this farce, and suggested that they add a turn in 2025 - because folly is like a cancer: It tends to grow.
