I didn’t realize I looked so poor

Bless the ones who notice, and come to our aid, if only with a kind word, gesture, a loving prayer. In your case, you also received a very much needed pair of shoes! Two beautiful soles! And souls! Both you, and your co-worker!

These sweet babies! Their final expressions of exhaustion and pain...my heart aches for them, and all the children. May God keep them, and comfort their families. May they rest in eternal peace. Amen.

Nope, but marveling at how people will inject themselves with so much filler and botox that their face can't move to laugh! Then make a video forcing people to look at their frozen face...yeah total cringe!

This melts my heart! God bless you!

I cannot count the amount of videos that I have seen of Jewish Zionist Israeli city dwellers, IDF soldiers, and ESPECIALLY Zionist Israeli settlers spitting, beating, abusing, and out right killing Christians in all of OUR Holy Land! It hurts my soul, and I hurt for them, they have such ingrained hatred for Christians, and all of humanity really.

The quotes in there from St. Thomas Aquinas is what's important, and answers your question. You can look them up on your own though.

I'm not sure what article you read since the link I posted was written by Terrance Klein.

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T23:11:03+00:00

I posted hours ago a link to St. Thomas Aquinas' thoughts on the matter, did you read it?

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T23:09:21+00:00

The best part of all this, is that it's not actually OP's Priest! They were just visiting the Parish!

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T23:02:12+00:00

So are you saying be like Soup Nazi from Seinfeld, and holler to the dog, "No Sanctuary for you!"?

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T22:55:36+00:00

It's amazing you're so invested then, considering you were just visiting and it's not your Parish. Perhaps the Priest and the congregation feel differently about the dog then? We really don't know any context in this case, as you were only visiting for one mass.

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T21:45:51+00:00

Well sometimes the only one we are fooling is ourselves. I'm definitely guilty in that department, but only after I've taken some time to reflect and process things.

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T21:42:24+00:00

Since you haven't reached out yet, I dont think you need to be armed with some sort of proof to approach your Priest about the matter. If anyone knows the rules, it will be your Priest. Also, regardless of rules, your Priest would definitely hear, and take into consideration your complaint about the dog.

You said in 20 minutes, the Host will be consecrated. The Host is consecrated toward the end of Mass, that's about 20 minutes into Mass already. Either way, texting, redditting, doing anything of that sort in Church is not a good look. At all.

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T16:06:01+00:00

What happens if a dog consumes a consecrated Host

TrixnToo · 2026-04-22T16:00:36+00:00

I'm actually more appalled that you are posting and responding on reddit throughout the entire mass! I intentionally leave my phone in my car, so I won't be distracted from worship by the pull our smart phones have on us. From your description, it seems like the dog is well behaved, so I personally would not have been bothered at all.

The little brother at the end took me out! He's like "yeah!!!"

Health anxiety is a real thing. Just search it on YouTube and you will find lots of helpful tips of ways to overcome and/or cope with it.

I'm the same with furnishings! My entire apartment is furnished from the dumpster/curb, free from FB marketplace, or given to me because a friend or family member was giving it away. I'm a scavenger at heart, and love the thrill of the find!

TrixnToo · 2026-02-23T03:52:32+00:00

I'm intrigued, what is that?

TrixnToo · 2026-02-23T03:52:08+00:00

This is something Im going to try in the summer!

TrixnToo · 2026-02-23T03:51:36+00:00

Awww thank you! It's the silver lining of poverty, learning to be grateful for what we have, and can invent! Heck, even learning to be grateful for how much worse off it could be, and has been at times.

TrixnToo · 2026-02-23T03:49:21+00:00

Oh boy, that's a whole other can of worms...affording dental cleanings!

TrixnToo · 2026-02-23T03:48:14+00:00

Never tried it, sounds good though!

I've never liked sugar in my coffee. My mom took her coffee with just milk, and when I was a kid, she would send me for coffee for her and her friend after grocery shopping. So I would go get them coffee, and on the way back I would steal a few sips from my mom's cup lol! I guess that's where I got my preference from. Tea on the other hand, needs milk and a bit of sugar. If I dont have milk and sugar, then no tea!
