AKA the Daily Mass Update:
As I expected, participation at noon mass has dropped off now that official classes are over. I'll usually have one or more volunteers attend with me, but if the teens are home, some littles choose to stay behind.
Still, this is more daily mass than I've attended in several years, and certainly more children are joining me than when 6:15 was my time of choice. So it is good.
BTW, my parish offers 6:15 a.m., 9:00 a.m., and noon masses M-F, and 9:00 a.m. on Saturday (which I haven't managed yet). What luxury!
You are very blessed to have so many options and that is just at one parish. You have several in your immediate area to consider,too.
ReplyDeleteWe are trying to get to the 9am Mass 2-3 times a week. Most in our area do not have Saturday morning Mass...
Looking forward to seeing you on Thursday!
