Biden attends first Sunday Mass as President
President Joe Biden attended Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Washington, DC's Georgetown neighborhood, his first time attending Sunday Mass since taking his oath of office.
Biden is the second Catholic president in US history, and
weekly Mass is expected to be a fixed part of his schedule. That's a level of devotion to regular religious services not seen from recent presidents, who were professed Christians but intermittently attended church or worshipped privately while in office.
And while it's unclear whether he will adopt a permanent parish in Washington during his term, Biden's churchgoing will provide a window into how his spiritual side aligns with his politics.
Biden was inside Holy Trinity for at least 35 minutes and his
grandchildren, Maisy and Finnegan, and his son, Hunter, accompanied the President to Sunday's service. Asked how the service was, he replied, "Lovely."
Biden's motorcade then made a stop at Call Your Mother, a popular bagelry-deli in the area, to pick up an order. Call Your Mother
retweeted a video of the motorcade on Sunday and called the visit a "GREAT Sunday surprise."

So now being a Catholic is a good thing?
Wasn't the demonicRATS' argument against Amy Coney Barrett's nomination to The Supreme Court the fact that she was a Catholic?

White house press secretary jen psaki stated last week in respose to a reporters question that joe biden is a devout catholic. I’ll leave that for catholics to decide.
But as for him being a devout Christian, I’ll leave that for God’s Word to determine.

I guess if you’re a godless, evil, thieving communist, it doesn’t hurt to go full Pharisee and public displays of religion that you entirely lack. Only the braindead leftists will eat it up though.

I would have to walk out of any Mass with Biden in attendance.

“That’s a level of devotion to regular religious services not seen from recent presidents”
Since he’s so “devoted” does this mean that he’s going to be pro-life?
Anyone can be “devoted” to attending services.. IMO, it’s how you live your life outside those services that count.

I haven’t attended mass for a very long time but I don’t remember any being only 35 minutes long.

Holy Trinity is administered by Jesuits. Jose Bergoglio is a Jesuit.

I don’t suppose DC’s bishop is one with the cobbles to deny him Communion?
