Yes! Thanks.

I was thinking of Lent and the Stations of the Cross when we genuflect.

Question: Have you ever heard of genuflection on the left knee for all such as the Pope and the right knee for Jesus? I'm from the old school and grew up in the 1930s and 1940s. Much of the old training from our Nuns is still with me including not chewing the Host but letting it slide down the throat.

I'm a V-II baby, so I really don't know. Heck I'm having a good day if I am able to bless myself with my right hand, there's a squirmy someone who has taken up a semi-permanant postion on my right hip.
