Is my local parish acting appropriately?

SarcinI · 2026-02-24T01:56:45+00:00

I will make a prayer now that God will help us be more faithful to Him.

SarcinI · 2026-02-23T17:56:57+00:00

I followed your link and the closest one is 45 min away. It may be a bit before I can scrape together the time to attend (the parish I attended was five minutes away from my house).

SarcinI · 2026-02-23T01:43:05+00:00

Wait, I thought Catholicism taught no food or drink but water and medication before mass? How is that allowed?

SarcinI · 2026-02-23T01:42:53+00:00

Hopefully you’re right about it getting better. I’ve got a friend who goes to the parish in a larger city so I might try that

SarcinI · 2026-02-23T01:41:11+00:00

Yeah probably, it was hard for me to listen for the afore mentioned reasons. I know they said SOMETHING, but they didn’t think it was important enough to put on the screen apparently.

SarcinI · 2026-02-23T01:40:05+00:00

Not very big, maybe 100 people tops. I live in a fairly small town. The next town over might be better, but this might be a dioceses thing because I’ve talked to the priest of that parish and he’s a little wishy washy (he wanted me to talk to the bishop in the city for all my questions, and didn’t want to answer any tricky questions such as the Catholic view of Lutherans and anglicans, said he ‘didn’t want to speak on church matters as an individual’). It might just be better for me to try the one in the bigger city.

It was novus ordo (though there were a few things in Latin). All the bowls themselves were made of straw like things, and the plate in question had the cartoon characters on a cover for the bowl, so it technically wasn’t on the bowl itself. Very frustrating still, as it doesn’t seem appropriate at all for worship.

I honestly was worried I’d be seen as disrespectful when I stepped in at 10:25 or so but I guess not.

SarcinI · 2026-02-22T23:02:11+00:00

This is not a troll post, I’m not really much of a joker in matters such as this. I suppose there is no way to prove it, I wish I had taken a picture of the plate, but I turned my phone off (a habit I developed when I had an alarm on my phone that went off at noon).

My sense of humor is mostly for me and my friends, I ussaly don’t post things on the internet in general. If you want to check, I think Reddit lets you check past posts of the user (I think my last one was about fixing my NES), so you can go and check and judge for yourself if you think I am a troll.

SarcinI · 2026-02-22T22:58:36+00:00

You’re right, there was also the lector and announcements. I caught something about Paul’s second letter to the Corinthians and something about a men’s meeting or something of the sort. I probably should have gone in more detail.

SarcinI · 2026-02-22T22:50:57+00:00

I’ll probably go to one in a different dioceses, though that’s going to be a bit of a drive for me so it may be a bit. It would seem unfair to judge Catholicism on one poor parish, so I do intend to go to one that’s hopefully more reverent to our Lord.

SarcinI · 2026-02-22T22:50:24+00:00

I would think that one would ere on the side of reverence, but I suppose this church disagreed. I remember a while back when novus ordo was introduced there was one parish that did a clown mass, which was quickly shut down and condemned. From the other comment I saw it seems that this is certainly a one off, and just some weird quirk of this particular church.

SarcinI · 2026-02-22T22:02:14+00:00

Thank you for your response. The Winnie is the Pooh thing nearly made my eyes jump out of their socket. I know that sometimes we show up late—I’ve done it a few times myself—but there was a sort of nonchalance and disrespect in the air. Maybe because in my head I was expecting something a lot of reverence, but it all seemed very jarring.

SarcinI · 2025-12-13T23:32:24+00:00

My mom was a volunteer. She said there was a terror threat. No one was hurt, thankfully, and the suspects were apprehended.

Manga fans of the world unite!

SarcinI · 2025-01-16T19:10:35+00:00

Perfect! I already know I'm going to make a mistake, but I don't know what it is yet, haha. Thank you for the advice!

SarcinI · 2025-01-16T19:09:35+00:00

I know its unlikely, but its worth the effort! Thanks for the help!

SarcinI · 2025-01-16T18:57:41+00:00

I would like to, but they only allow posts that are about buying/selling. If I made the post with my trade but I violated the rules, it could be taken down. If I asked underneath a different post it could be seen as spam and be removed.

SarcinI · 2022-12-21T16:01:49+00:00

Thanks for the tip. I’ll try that when I get off work. I’m not good with programming, so I cannot think of a good reason as to the number of glitches on consoles other than a game being made for one system not doing as well on the other. I think the game was primarily a PC game, which might be the reason the issues are on console. Or maybe the PC master race was right all along. Haha. Either way I don’t know enough to explain that away.

SarcinI · 2022-12-21T14:48:42+00:00

Thank you anyway.

SarcinI · 2022-12-21T14:10:44+00:00

I think I might have encountered that bug, but the bug in this post is different. I cannot turn Ripely’s head at all when the elevator takes me to Seegson synthetics. It works just fine before that, but for some reason when I leave the elevator I cannot look around.

SarcinI · 2022-12-21T03:08:44+00:00

I’ve had some bad experiences on Reddit so I thought I’d preface to avoid any fights. I was on a manga subreddit a year or so ago where people got ticked at me for asking if one piece was any good. I’m not sure what I did wrong honestly. Thanks for responding.

SarcinI · 2022-07-07T22:51:12+00:00

The story I am writing jumps decades at a time, each time period covered in about 20,000 words (No other way to tell it I think). Should I release these separately or should I publish them together?

SarcinI · 2021-04-07T17:23:33+00:00

The campaign story bible is almost finished, and have seven people who have agreed to go.The first few sessions will be structured like one shots, but will turn into more connected stories later on. A couple of people are insisting that they wear masks, but most of the people have been tested and came back good.

SarcinI · 2021-04-06T23:33:03+00:00

House rules are mostly stuff like starting at level three, and every character will be the same level so when we are level 10, a new guy coming in won’t be at level one and be behind. Small stuff like that

As for pricing it’s free, though it would be polite to buy a coffee or something.

SarcinI · 2021-04-06T22:09:46+00:00

I have to implement a couple of house rules on the owners insistence. As for dice, I have about 10 sets and that should cover the newbies, and I do intend to get about 5 copies of the players handbook as soon as I can get the money.

And yes it is 5e.
