You Know You Are A Future Priest... (or Brother)

[NonNovi]

- when you see pictures of a facebook friend who recently got ordained and get so jealous!
- when a priest doesn't want to go to the ordinations of his order unless you accompany him (it's a 1000 km drive).
- when you're really looking forward to these ordinations (wich also means a visit to the motherhouse), only 2 more weeks!

I just used up most of my internet time reading these, but quite funny guys!

Welcome, Brother Gabriel-Marie! You might want to do a 'welcome thread' in either VS or Open Mic so we can properly greet you. You look suspiciously.... Domincan? Which Province?

Ha. Sadly my liturgical underwear ripped because of my busy and active work schedule, but I hope it made you laugh! It's very wonderful to see a male Religious on here! I hope you can find some time to visit us when you can.

- when you realise you already met the master of novices before he recently got that function and liked him from the beginning.

- when the priest in the confessional has to ask you if you're a priest before giving any advice, because he wasn't sure.

- When you read this and really hoped it would happen to you but are sad at the reality of it likely not happening.

Welcome to VS Brother!

[PhuturePriest]

- When you discover you have a pleasant deep voice and you immediately start imagining yourself as a Friar or Priest singing in front of your parish and Community.

[PhuturePriest]

- When you make it a priority to memorize the prayer of absolution.

[NonNovi]

- when the priest enters the sacristy before Mass and says to you with a big smile (as a joke): "Hello, reverend father"
- when the same priest says after Mass (not as a joke) that you really look like a parish priest in your cassock.

Doing it was a learning process. This was the first meme I ever made, but Anomaly was just screaming for it.

Haha, I don't think so, he's just 2m03 (about 6 feet and 8 inches I think). A great guy, literally and figuratively.

That's gigantic! Especially considering Kansas standards. The average height here is 5'8 or 5'7. I was 5'4 the last time I got measured, so at best I'm [i]maybe[/i] 5'5.

I'm about 5'9, and here that is not particularly tall. But he is the tallest priest of the whole congregation, I assume he has to have his own custom made albs for Mass, because the regular ones would be too short.

Look how far he "sticks out" above the altar
