they go to daily mass and shit more than me

2019-05-04 08:40:51 UTC  

probably even more pious than me tbh :(

2019-05-04 08:40:55 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:41:19 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:41:24 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:41:34 UTC  

we have a great Catholic fraternity on campus as well

2019-05-04 08:42:13 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:42:23 UTC  

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?

2019-05-04 08:42:46 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:43:01 UTC  

My church has lots of social events to build a community

2019-05-04 08:43:08 UTC  

people go there to study and stuff

2019-05-04 08:43:25 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:43:33 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:43:52 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:44:00 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:44:04 UTC  

F

2019-05-04 08:44:18 UTC  

yall should create a student org

2019-05-04 08:44:25 UTC  

and work from there

2019-05-04 08:44:33 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:44:37 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:44:40 UTC  

we have one

2019-05-04 08:44:44 UTC  

do they do shit

2019-05-04 08:44:50 UTC  

?

2019-05-04 08:44:56 UTC  

idk I'm not a pastor

2019-05-04 08:45:12 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:45:14 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:45:36 UTC  

yeah

2019-05-04 08:45:41 UTC  

that's your problem

2019-05-04 08:45:51 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:46:01 UTC  

that's my parish (mostly)

2019-05-04 08:46:14 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:46:24 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:46:43 UTC  

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

2019-05-04 08:46:56 UTC

2019-05-04 08:46:56 UTC  

BBQs after mass is a great way to boost attendance

2019-05-04 08:47:02 UTC  

yeet

2019-05-04 08:47:09 UTC  

our bishop visits regularly as well

2019-05-04 08:47:15 UTC  

he used to anyway

2019-05-04 08:47:18 UTC
