What church was that?
The one in Saudi Arabia? It wasn't a church. There are no churches there. The Mass was celebrated in the priest's living room at first, then it was celebrated in a large room in the rec hall, dedicated, sort of, for these Christian services.
The only difference was the the Mass was celebrated daily. The Anglicans and Protestants met once a week. Don't ask me why the latter separated themselves like that--there were only six Anglicans and they DID get an Anglican man of the cloth. The "Protestants" lumped themselves together and ONE man of the cloth, a Lutheran, led their service.
I STILL go to daily Mass, thanks to my Muslim boss. My Catholic Indian co-worker was the one who brought this up. We worked Saturdays-Wednesdays and our "weekend" was Thursday-Friday. I refused to go to "Friday" Mass as my Sunday. I took off 20 minutes from work on Sunday mornings to go to Mass across the street. My Indian Catholic coworker STRONGLY objected, even though I made up the time at lunch.
Since I didn't stop this practice, he "told on me." That is when my boss, the Muslim, told me that "God was number one. There is always time for God. "Cloud Mountain" (not my name of course) can go to pray whenever she wants."
Lol. Since I COULD, I went to Mass. Then it became daily. It was most comforting to me, especially over there which was SO foreign to me.
I used to sign my letters home "from the dark side of the moon." Things are different now over there now with the Internet. There can be daily exchange with loved ones.
