StColette Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 All the bulletins in our diocese has ads on the back page (front & back) we're a missionary diocese so the ads pay for the bulletin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeschoolmom Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 What's a missionary diocese? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 We are missionary as well. I guess that means we have to import priests. We have a bunch from India and Africa. Our new priests are coming from Calgary from a Basilian order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StColette Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 [quote name='homeschoolmom' post='1891305' date='Jun 15 2009, 10:57 AM']What's a missionary diocese?[/quote] Usually it means a diocese with a low number of Catholics, lower collections (because of the lack of Catholics), and a lack of priests where we have to have them come from other countries. So when your Church does a collection (usually a second one) for mission diocese or missionary diocese it goes to diocese like mine and Catherine's to help fund the Churches, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Adam Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I've never been to a Protestant church that even has a bulletin that I can remember. But every Catholic Church that I have ever been to that has one does have ads on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archaeology cat Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 We don't have the ads here, but we did on the back page of our parish in FL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Hearts Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I've never seen a Catholic Church in the US with ads in the bulletin, but this question got me wondering if some just might exist. I have seen a couple with very few ads, but then I felt bad for the parish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sojourner Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 [quote name='homeschoolmom' post='1891288' date='Jun 15 2009, 09:31 AM']I'd never seen them in any Protestant church I ever attended and I've always seen them in every Catholic parish I've attended.[/quote] Ditto. Most protestant churches I've been to have bulletins, but no ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
