    question about offeratory procession

    Yeah, every Parish is different. They actually put me in charge of the ushers here! It's fun. My favorite is Easter Vigil Mass because it is so beautiful. I'm a trustee in 5660 (Iowa). (Former FS, former DGK, former GK, and former agent!) :)

    question about offeratory procession

    I remember as a kid the procession was more elaborate than I see it now. Then, we had candles, the bread, the wine, the water, and a few trays. Now, it's simply the bread and wine.

    Scapular

    Yeah, I was just curious what was approprite or if there was a scapular etiquette. It's funny about the weddding ring thing. When my dad dies, I want his wedding ring, but the goofball broke his finger a long time ago so to remove the ring would be near impossible. "To death do us part" does...

    Scapular

    I was just pondering this last night before I fell asleep. After someone dies, should you leave the scapular on them or can/should you remove it? I have become such an infrequent visitor, I am happy to see this site still around with a lot of old familiar faces. Having a wife and two great...

    Is it a bad sign...

    What a trip! I'm too sentimental sometimes. You know, I have Joey watching Star Trek with me already. I can't decide if that's good or not.

    Is it a bad sign...

    I got rid of cable when Joey turned one. There's too much junk out there and the cost continues to go up. I believe in DVDs. We have a one-episode DVD of the Doodlebops he got with a toy. I endorse PBS. It worked for me. I miss old school Sesame Street, Mr. Rodgers, and Electric Company...

    What does Fatima mean?

    I remember on the History Channel a story on Hitler/WWII. It said that the night Hitler decided to invade Poland, the sky turned red. I should see if I can find a link regarding this.
