Maybe some misinform, but not mine. On Palm Sunday I went to confession and discussed attending a Divine Liturgy with my Priest. He informed me that it was fine, and seemed to encourage it in his tone of voice.
He did point out that I might not be able to receive the Eucharist, which I already knew. So, in reply to his attempt at diplomatically telling me what the score was, I told him that I knew they absolutely would not let me, and he laughed an approving laugh.
The good and holy Fr. Bonsignore would never lead one of his sheep astray. And of course, that's why I really like him!
My nephew said the two Roman Catholic ladies who spoke to the Deacon said their Priest said it was OK. My nephew was at that time working with the young Altar servers and heard the ladies speak with the deacon before services began.
Guess some priests do and some don't give their folks the correct info.
I want to see an Orthodox Easter service this year. If I am up to, healthwise, being out that late at night.
