And God said he would rather have us hot or cold than lukewarm.

Though idk.

As far as laypeople go these are the face of the Church. If I go into a Church and see regular parishioners dressed casual, ok, but if I see an usher looking like shit, then that whole church looks like shit

Exactly

I want to go to your parish xD

I am a little more tolerant of a tourist church though, like historic cathedrals etc.

Will they still have mass at Notre Dame when it's rebuilt?

Because I've been in Savannah, Charleston, Saint Augustine etc and not there for church, I'm there for sightseeing etc. But I will usually go to daily mass

Yes

Beautiful.

I want to visit Rome and Notre dame sometime.

Go on a 'pilgrimage'

But when I'm making a dedicated trip for the purpose of worship, I'm dressed like a Southern gentleman

Absolutely.

The lady I rebuked had these on.

they were a little shorter on her though

little kids can wear shorts and whatnot, but 12+ should be dressed well

I'm not gonna let my kids wear shorts

I'm talking about ages like

0-6

Them are 90's shorts

I'm still not letting my kids wear shorts

@Iakovos what exactly did you say, and was it to the girl or her parent(s)?

It was to the girl, and I told her she was dressing immodestly and that her clothes were scampy. If we're going to worship the Lord we need to adhere to Scripture when it says to be modest.

Her father got on to me, and I told him, "Had I known you were her father, I would have told you." And he said, "Well it's my responsibility, not yours!" So, it's whatever. I'll say that I handled it the wrong way, but it something that needs to be said.

I thought she was my age but she was probably a few years younger.

Ah. The age was going to be my next question.

Well... if you see something you believe is wrong, take it to a church leader(s). Being a random new guy at a church and rebuking people makes you look like some holier-than-thou jackass.

There were a few things that led up to that. Wayyyyy too many people were dressed immodestly, and it was probably best that I go to the church leaders anyway, but I didn't so oh well.

I'm on a quest

A glorious quest

And my quest is complete
