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
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
3 priest wowe
BBQs after mass is a great way to boost attendance
yeet
our bishop visits regularly as well
he used to anyway
we have like 3 priests in the whole city who would say the latin mass, and one of them is FSSP
before he passed
i heard a new one is coming
