There was a bunny that gave out eggs to kids at the end of the mass. Serene place to pray. There was free books (Little White Book and The Three ordinary Voices of God) to parishoners if they want them.

At Easter, I attended a partial "mass" here...because this is where I was christened long ago by…read moreMonsignor Leddy (sp?). This church always held a very special place in my heart, obviously, until this last Easter. As I sat trying to listen to sacred prayer, I was saddened. I did not feel the presence of holiness in the delivery of the prayers and mass at all. I just sat and listened, oh so sad. When it came time to receive the eucharist, I got up along with my son, and walked to the front of the church to receive it from the priest...I was crying...because the eucharistic ministers located in the middle of the church gave me the ugliest "go to HELL" look ever when I passed them up to walk up to the priest. WHAT? Go to HELL inside a Catholic Church? Really? Oh my GOD...with my precious son at my side???? WHO are these 'Eucharistic Ministers' anyway??? Walking out I could not help but notice that the stairway to the choir loft was impassable because accordion-like bars (the ones you see in New York City to prevent damage to store fronts) was drawn across the opening, along with a chain as well. WHAT? WHAT in the world does that say to anyone? No one allowed up in the choir loft to sing praises to God? Really? WOW. Just what in the HELL is going on with the Catholic Church these days anyway? I certainly hope they, too, are not going to HELL - since that was the disgusting, ugly, degrading message on the faces of their 'Eucharistic Ministers' wielded upon me and my son. I will never go back there again. EVER. OH MY GOD!!!! Such a DISGRACE to my GOD - and my son.
