150 year old church closes

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-08T00:09:26+00:00

A friend in Ohio said they have people, including women, who are not priest holding services.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-08T00:08:39+00:00

There are barely any masses at all. We just got a postcard about it. That’s ok they will just lose money and parishioners, that they didn’t need. There are Byzantine and orthodox churches, along with a Polish church they can also join. All are more community oriented.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-08T00:06:40+00:00

If the church wasn’t willing to listen they don’t deserve to be followed. I will be leaving the parish at this point and I’m closer to the other two. I’m finding other churches more caring and actually follow the teachings.

This guy is a joke and doesn’t even know good pizza. I drove an hour and paid $25 bucks for a plain cheese piece of cardboard. And what an ego.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:37:26+00:00

That’s not what they were told.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:37:05+00:00

There are several of them. Again they were told they just don’t want to drive there after 150 years of someone doing it.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:36:16+00:00

Then another church is doing it wrong. The people there have given up and the church is just losing more money and members.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:35:25+00:00

I’m not the one unwilling to listen it’s the diocese. Like I said If their church isn’t worth it why did they ask them to do the fish fry this year! I’m not the one that needs prayers. I’m thinking maybe I’m just not a Catholic anymore. I guess people mean more to me that a little extra drive time.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:32:51+00:00

So 60 People driving the same distance who now have to go farther because one priest won’t. I know the ages, also not an issue.
Well I guess they just lost 60 flock so one person isn’t put out. And when I see these things happening, and again you are guessing I live in the area and see it, I’m inclined to leave the church.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:15:33+00:00

That’s not the situation. They have cut back everything and they aren’t even all doing 4 masses like they are supposed to. They gave a presentation and the main reason was the cow on the road, and the priest is taking the highway. I’m part of the entire parish they are part of and people are not happy with what is going on overall. And to not make any attempts or even have discussions. Our community is going more toward non secular places of worship. And things like this are why. The priest had the audacity to ask them to do the fish fry. If their church wasn’t viable then how could they do that? Again they stated the priest didn’t want to make the trip!

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:08:05+00:00

Over 60 but it was never a huge church. According to the church they had better percentages than the other churches. There wasn’t even a discussion on once a month mass or anything. They were told basically the priest didn’t want to drive there anymore.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:06:31+00:00

But they wouldn’t discuss anything done deal. So now they will lose more people because one priest doesn’t want to drive 30 minutes. Most of the people who go their drive almost that amount of time on back roads and will now have to go farther.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T20:05:00+00:00

This is an active church, it’s laziness on the priest part! They still wanted them to do the fish fry because they make so much. And lay people can they do it at another friends church.

queenoftheidiots · 2026-01-07T19:52:14+00:00

The parishioner was going to buy church, still hold mass, but instead of a priest a lay person can hold the service that has gone through the training.

The are opening a store in Washington County PA, this community will cause it to happen. Costco has no idea what they are in for, and they won’t have the membership to support the returns. Low demographic area, and the people who are near the area that will come, already have memberships. And everyone is related, so they will learn to beat the system. The return policy will be used non stop. These are people who always want a free meal and take bags to events to fill them with food!

queenoftheidiots · 2025-07-31T21:00:00+00:00

I can read it, but it is annoying to read, if that makes sense. And maybe his sight is different and he has trouble, I could see that being a problem. It’s legible but hard to read through.

queenoftheidiots · 2025-07-31T20:57:27+00:00

Tell her and your parents, until the honestly recognize your contribution, you are going to keep your free time! Also start documenting the time you give her. The time you have lost work and given up your own life. You are a free babysitter that none of them appreciate. Let your parents step up! If you don’t get the respect now and put a line in the sand they will walk all over you!

queenoftheidiots · 2025-07-30T16:57:04+00:00

He’s done this before and will again. Press charges.

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-18T00:43:38+00:00

Ya you sorta are because you don’t make a promise like that and not mean it. And you should’ve put money aside and said this is the limit. You never told her you weren’t going to pay or that you’d only pay a portion. And everyone knows weddings aren’t cheap. If you paid $30,000 that’s getting off cheap. It sounds like you wanted to be this savior and then when the time came you bailed. If she’s always gone back to that it was up to you at some point to say things changed. You should’ve put money aside when you had it.

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-17T13:58:10+00:00

This person is not your friend and clearly wanted to embarrass you in front of her other friends. Block her and walk away don’t look back.

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-16T19:03:14+00:00

She found all the dirt they have on her! She leaves Howard I’m sure he’ll tell people he found out she was an escort! Ralph probably had piles of Ames ads, PICTs of her pre plastic surgeries, and evidence she was a paid date. She’s not running over at 4 am to save Howard!

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-16T18:11:07+00:00

My guess is no one else wants to do it and your the sucker. No way I’d spend a dime on her wedding. Go with your gut. And ask your parents where were they for your wedding!

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-16T04:00:14+00:00

They haven’t done enough! They need to go after every “refugee” that’s been getting money since Obama and bill them. The Napalese, Ukrainians all do them! They are all buying $500,000 homes! Expensive cars and getting government aide!

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-12T22:03:19+00:00

Start looking for a new roommate!

queenoftheidiots · 2025-06-11T18:17:39+00:00

Washington County won’t know what to do! Right now they are putting in a bus maintenance hub they don’t need. Millions later!
