She can stay a Catholic and just join the Benedictines.

Sorry, I shouldn't have wished her on you.
I have it! We can send her to the Episcopalians in a trade for any orthodox high-churchers left over there, with a liturgical dancer to be named later.
(Piskies aren't Protestant; most of them aren't even Christian any more, especially the leadership.)

We Protestants don't want her. Tell her to try the atheists down the street.The Unitarian Universalists said they'd take her but we'd have to thrown in a pizza.

Wish I could comment, but in my past life (pre-retirement) my work necessitated an asp’s tongue and wasp’s attitude.
Stuff like this could send me to the confessional for several weeks.
All I can say is that like Hillary’s girly hysteria in the presence of Lazio, if this babe feels so threatened by a change, she needs to marry rich and stay in some enclave.
Oh, please. And yes, I’m female.

There was no music. Nobody shook handsWheee! No bad music and no contrived kissy-poo. Boy, I tell you, there are times when I soooo want to go Catholic...
or brought gifts to the altar. It was as exuberant a celebration of creation as an expired fly left to rot on a window sill.
She thinks Communion is a celebration of creation? Are we absolutely sure this woman is Catholic?
To: AnAmericanMother
AmericanMother, let me ask you something about kneeling. (BTW, that grey lace sounds lovely!) In my parish, many people cannot kneel; the elderly, some people have knee or hip problems, one fairly young woman looks perfectly healthy but has had back surgery and can’t kneel. All are very devout. How is this handled at TLM masses? If a person presents herself for communion, but is standing, what will the priest do? I am beginning to worry that some people might be afraid to attend the extraordinary Mass if they feel they are going to be stared at or judged for not being with the program, so to speak.

You don’t have to kneel if you can’t. You can get a dispensation for that. :)

Apologies for interloping but based on personal experience, I’ve seen the Priest go to the front pew where these folks are sitting, usually before everyone else.
I would recommend anyone wishing to recieve who can’t kneel sit in the front row.

I guess she didn’t like it.

The Church is obviously not going back to the Middle Ages since the discovery of America and heliocentrism and all the rest. Time to look ahead to some what-ifs such as finding life on Mars.

She can stay a Catholic and just join the Benedictines. She's a sad case; might take 3 bottles.
Faster-acting than Guinness . . . .
Frank is going to be REALLY sorry to have missed this thread!

Cheverus has the right idea. The front row is the place in our church as well as at the Cathedral.
If you can't kneel, you can't kneel. You can kneel in your heart.

. . . and this is the veil.
It looks a little stiffer in the picture than it actually is - it drapes well. The only problem is that on very straight fine hair (like mine and my daughter's) it tends to slide right off . . . . so I stitched little spring clips into the underside of the veil to clip it onto a lock of hair on each side . .. . so far so good.
