I’m up bright and early and feeling GREAT. I’m fixing myself a cup of green tea. My husband and I had to take a ride through town and check out the churches to see what time mass was this morning. We’ve decided to go to the 9:00 am service so we can take mom with us.
It use to be, the churches would always publish their service times in the newspaper. Looked and looked last night in all the sections of the paper, only services printed were in a town 15 miles from here. I find that rather sad.
Two days ago, I stopped by the church. I wanted to fill out a mass card for my dad. The church was locked up tighter than a drum at 11:00 am. It sure surprised me. Oh, how the times have changed.
I’ve got to rememeber…no meat today. I am trying to lose weight, but my biggest downfall is spice drops and junior mints. These two will be off my list during lent. God is going to have to intercede here. I’m so weak. (sighs)
Even in the Saturday paper?? We always have service information in our Saturday paper. A locked church does seem kind of strange. Maybe God just wants to lead you to a different church.
Enjoying your blog. Hope you don’t mind my commenting. Seems we might have some similarities.
All the denominations in this town have their doors locked unless they have something going on. I’ve only been living back in my home town the past 3 years, I figure there had to be vandalism at some time to cause it. Respect….so many don’t know the meaning of it.
