I believe I heard Fr. Groeschel comment on EWTN that holding hands during the Lord's Prayer is an offshoot of AA meetings. OR.....could the AA custom have started from Catholics who learned it in church? H'mmmm.......

Fr. Groeschel was not in favor of the practice in church, by the way.

For the time being, my husband and I continue to quietly hold hands, but no longer extend them to others unless they "insist."
