In the High Mass, it's the start of the Gloria, the Gospel readings and the Pater Noster.

Oh, and when the Priest enters and leaves, of course.

This is a good book.

I hope they have padded kneelers :c

And it fits in your pocket.

Man the fuck up.

I kneel on concrete if it's a busy church.

I have arthritis in my knees, it's excruciatingly painful to kneel Chav.

Isn’t that the norm?

To kneel anywhere?

I fucking do it, but it really fucking hurts.

Yeah, I have dodgy knees, too, I still kneel

Padding helps, still isn't comfortable. But it doesn't feel like I'm literally dying.

It hurts them because you don’t use them

Pretty sure it hurts because I have bad knees actually.

I have bad knees too

boo hoo

Anyway, I kneel. On concrete if I have to. All the way through.

My knees have a bone sticking out in the shape of a ball

It hurts at first but like the orthos say, mass is meant to be a calvary

It's not like that MawLr. It doesn't get better.

That’s not a normal knee

Looks like a triangle

Still kneel

Congratulations, so do I.

But if you had the option of not being in crazy amounts of pain, and still kneeling. It would be preferable yes?

Not a decision I mindfully take

Instead of only being able to concentrate on the pain and controlling yourself, you could actually maybe, focus on the task at hand.

Because idk about you, but when I'm kneeling for communion. All I can think about is how much fucking pain I'm in.

Well, personally I’m praying

I can't do anything.

Guess one gets used to it

It isn't something that will ever get better. It's just unbearable pain.

If you’re that bitchy about it then stand up

If it’s really that unbearable

There a good app that gives you bible verses daily on your phone? <:thonk:559771775119130624>

Sometimes when it gets too bad and I physically can't handle any more, God grants me a reprieve. But that's about it.

Then it’s bearable

And no, I refuse to be that person. Bring my own damn cushion if need be.
