absolutely love him

incense at mass is apparently too much for the average catholic

let alone this

Idk anything you'll have to inform me. I'm tired asf lol

I'm bout to go to bed but pm me stuff

@Orrbit when I talk about the average catholic i probably refer to a trad-leaning catholic

ahh I see

all the catholics I meet with are super pious dudes

they go to daily mass and shit more than me

probably even more pious than me tbh :(

and I would agree, tbh I'm not totally convinced with a bunch of stuff here

something about college ministries with healthy shepherds really brings out the best in catholicism

shouldn't compare yourself to others in the spiritual life, unless you're striving to be better

we have a great Catholic fraternity on campus as well

@Orrbit them being more pious than me is not a jest or jealously, merely an observation and an inspiration to a stronger spiritual life

Almost every second day it seems that it's only myself and this other girl coming to daily mass. What do you do to grow it tho?

Like do you go out and talk to random people? Advertise a shit ton? hold public events outside of mass and stuff?

My church has lots of social events to build a community

people go there to study and stuff

so when they're studying there they just go to the chapel for mass

it also helps that there's 40k people in my uni I suppose

I think the beauty of the church has something to do with it as well

well there's 20k at mine and the most who ever comes to mass is like 6 people

F

yall should create a student org

and work from there

the Church is literally attached to one of the residential halls with several hundred students there and not a single one comes

we have a campus catholic student org and most events are done through there

we have one

do they do shit

?

idk I'm not a pastor

I try to invite my friends to mass ( Novus Ordo but still better than nothing)

but it's mostly run by philipino NO types who don't even show up to any masses or events

yeah

that's your problem

Fr does a very trad NO (pretty much a low mass in vernacular) every day and OP mass on Fridays and Dominican feast days

that's my parish (mostly)

we have a 6pm mass with bass guitar which kinda sucks

he wants to start having bbqs etc after mass sometimes and doing more bible studies and stuff outside of just mass during the days so students can come

our 3 Frs, 2 are youngtrads and 1 is a 50 something year old, really nice guy
