thank goodness we're in Arlington
I'm thankful we have plenty of boys to serve...
Our Parish has 8 masses every weekend and 2-3 altar boys serve every mass.
I'm female and I much prefer seeing well trained young men on the altar.
Which is also why I declined when asked to volunteer for EEM (and volunteered my husband).
"Altar girls may be a step toward the Catholic church someday allowing women as deacons or priests, said Mike Reineck, who trains and schedules servers at Our Lady of the Assumption."
Paging Father Tomas, Father Tomas de Torquemada.
Please report immediately to stake #57 with a lit torch.
