Um... I am not the originator of the post, however...

Yes, I was a Roman Catholic, and a large majority of my mothers family is still. My grandmother, raised a Catholic all her eighty some odd years, first heard the Gospel on her deathbed, thank the Good Lord.

She heard the Gospel all her life at Mass, if she went.

Praise God she heard it!

I went through a similar experience with my father-in-law.

Eighty years a Catholic, yet never attended Mass?

Praise God!

I suspect many here will confuse the Gospel (Good News) with the Gospel writings.

That is a blatant lie.

Since there are two readings of scripture and one of the Gospel in every mass, what was she listening to in Church all those years?

First heard the gospel on her death bed after 80 years of being a Catholic? Really????

Hmm.. guessing she missed 80 years of Mass then.
