Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Ann-Marie... Like everything else in this world, it's going to take time to change the Catholic church. I really look forward to seeing a woman pope!!!! But I don't think that will happen in my life time. I've come across a few priests who were less than caring and more demanding than I care to see. While I love the Catholic church, I no longer attend service. Now, I would find it almost impossible getting up and down during the service. I remember attending mass in a HUGE Roman Catholic church in Oakland, Calif. when I was younger. It was truly awesome. I tend to enjoy the older churches more than the modern ones which can be so stark.... Yet I feel God is every where and a church is not needed to experience his power. We need more nun's like you... it would make such a difference in how quickly things change. Hang in there... we know you've got the Nun of the year award... Happy New Year to you Ann-Marie Take care, Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 I've been to Rome. Saw the Vatican and the rest of the sights there. Pretty awesome place. The saddest part was the Catacombs, where the early christians hid. There are still mummified bodies of children there, like they were curled up sleeping. Too sad. Ed > > Ann-Marie...
