If our new parish priest hadn't been so liberal, we might have never attended. He actually did us a favor ;) The first Sunday the boys were there I could tell they were just different. I now know that we underestimate kids and their ability to sense the supernatural. Since we, as parents, spend so much time trying to entertain them, we can't imagine they would sit quiet through something in a different language that is longer than an hour. I will admit, in the beginning, my youngest son would ask how much longer but now that he has been going for almost a year, he never asks how long, etc. You truly lose track of a sense of time at this Mass. I know my kids do too because I see it in them. When we first started going, we sat toward the back. That helped us follow along and not worry about doing something wrong. I felt so much more at ease with the kids than I ever thought I would.a thorn in the pewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11975456892778482598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5469051312285079006.post-37135237165431228552007-10-08T13:32:00.000-05:002007-10-08T13:32:00.000-05:00We have a latin mass here that I have never visite...We have a latin mass here that I have never visited because I was afraid my daughter (5 years old) wouldn't sit through it. Your posts and your passion have made me curious enough to try, so thank you for that. <BR/><BR/>And your vaccine posts are scaring the pants off me (in a good, though-provoking way)- with a new baby on the way this subject has weighed heavily on my mind. Thanks for all that you do, and I hope you are doing well.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14487791937532979173noreply@blogger.com
