I can see why many people get frustrated with attending Mass.

I continue to attend Mass twice a week, but I am sick of all of the politics....especially the Church’s insistence that we accept and tolerate illegal immigration. I hear this constantly. Also they are now actively promoting driver’s licenses for illegal aliens. I hear this in church all of the time. It goes in one ear and out the other. I can see why a lot of people don’t like going to Mass anymore. Our new Pope and our archdiocese are very liberal.

Try to find another church. Try to find a Tridentine Mass or weekly Masses where there are no sermons. Don’t put up with sermons you disagree with.

Find a different church.

I have never heard that at my church.

Years ago, foreign exchange students would be taken in by host families to work at Disneyland for the summer, and they would buy used cars, get Californa driving licenses, and return home after the summer.

I was a host, and ... we're still in touch.

>> “I can see why many people get frustrated with attending Mass.” <<

.
So can I; its a pagan abomination, and a stench in the nostrils of God.

Question: Are Catholics required to attend mass in a particular geographic area? Or are you free to find a place which doesn't try to cram left-wing politics down your throat?

I know a LOT of former mainline Protestant church goers who've switched churches (sometimes even within the same brand) for exactly that reason.

Hear Hear!!

Our small town Church used to have a separate spanish mass for the few mexicans we have around here. For some reason they stopped. I hear because low attendance. So they integrated the sunday services, mariachi music and everything repeated in spanish.

It's no wonder why Illegals feel so entitled with government special treatment and an institution as old as the Catholic Church making special exceptions.
