[right][snapback]761352[/snapback][/right] [/quote] Well, yeah... everyone else in the church kneels, so why shouldn't we? Are we too "good" to do that...? Just because we are the EMs, does that mean we are exempt from showing reverance? I really do not like being an EM at my parish.
cmotherofpirl Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 [quote name='tomasio127' date='Oct 17 2005, 02:37 PM']We must be from very different communities, because I know very few non-Charismatic Catholics who seem to love or care for the Lord much at all. They come to Mass for community and don't care a bit about worshipping God, they seem to think the Church is all about self-love and really understanding yourself. The Charismatics I know love the Lord and the Church and the sacraments, and go to Mass to worship.....

cmotherofpirl Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 EMOHCs may not approach the altar until the priest has recieved Communion.

None of us are above abuses or misunderstandings of our faith. No more judging, no more assuming.

[right][snapback]761414[/snapback][/right] [/quote] You are so smart... Now, I just need to tell Mr. Father Mike he is making a big no-no... This stuff irritates me... and he is doing all of this just to make Communion a little bit speedier... I remember a story with St. Pio and another priest who dropped a host during communion because he went so hastily through it and didn't notice. Later on while purifing the vessels, he saw a host floating before him, he was totally shocked by it, the next day he came to Padre Pio and told him of the event and Padre Pio told him that he was going too quickly and that he should take his time because Jesus is present in every little crumb of the consecrated host.
cmotherofpirl Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 (edited) Our EMOHCs were doing this but were corrected by the bishop who sent out copies of RS to ALL church personnel Edited October 17, 2005 by cmotherofpirl

I think I know, but I'm not sure...

(Charasmatic mass) Serves me right for sleeping in. [right][snapback]761154[/snapback][/right] [/quote] The 4pm is not the "holy roller" Mass @ FUS, the 4pm is affectionately known as the "sinner's Mass" : for all those too lazy to wake up in the morning (or were too hung over to get there any earlier). Get it right.

[right][snapback]761411[/snapback][/right] [/quote] No, which is why I was so kind in my estimation. Did I neglect to mention that most non-Charismatics I know are heretics, liberals, and the like? I am quite aware there are lots of good non-Charismatic Catholics out there, I just don't know very many in real life (thus the emphasis on my community).
