Hope the linky works!
And, just to stick my Episcopal Nose in, it's not unknown for Other Churches to be discombobulated somewhat by an unexpectedly large attendance (would that it happened more often!).
However...might it be possible, in future, for a server or an usher to keep an eye on the crowd, and just warn the priest that he might need to put some more hosts into the ciborium, prior to the Mass beginning?
This may, of course, have been done anyway, but still with not quite enough. I can't help thinking that Our Lord (and His Blessed Mother) would rejoice more at the number of worshippers, than lament at the all-too-human (and slight) logistical problems!
