Well the parish with the noon Mass is out. I am a digger of information and dug up something like that I disagree with 100% and now I am seeing what the office manger meant when she said it is a progressive church.

Progressive?? Oh boy. Yeah that would be the red flag for me.

Nothing says you can’t join a different parish and still go to this noon Mass. Our parish doesn’t have a noon Mass, but two hospitals and the cathedral downtown do, so we have that option.

Edit: oops I was thinking of weekday noon Masses – you may have been talking Sunday Mass. At some parishes where they subsidize school kids, they want them to go to Sunday Masses at home, so it could be a factor after all…

Our parish has a noon Mass on Sundays but I don’t think too much about it because for the last 25 years I’ve played the music at the 8 am. 🙂

It didn’t send up a flag when she said it, since my experience with a parish is only a few weeks old LOL There has been a huge push by them for sometime in-regards to women being able to be ordained as priests. I have to say that I am not even sure what the full view of The Church is one this but I personally have never felt it right for a woman to be a Pastor, Rev, Minister or anything like that.

No, it was is the weekday Mass that is at noon.
 
I have been doing a lot of searching for information on the parish in the area that I am going, that didn’t have a website. Any site regarding parishes in the state had an address that wasn’t valid. Well after a good search I did find a site. Have to say I am very happy that there is Eucharist Adortion from 9am to 8pm on Mondays and 6am till 8pm the rest of the week. This is very important to me. I can’t be at Mass every day so I want to be able to go and spend time with the Lord when I can. The Rosary is also said every week Monday thru Friday. I have been really enjoying that at the parish I am going to right now.

The Catholic Church has a ban on ordination of women priests. Any “Catholic” Church that is pushing for this is one you should avoid.

You can attend weekday mass at any parish in the time that is convenient for you. You are not limited to your home parish…😉

With regards to adoration…when you become a regular…you may become familiar with those that go during your regular time/visit…and they could become your prayer buddies…😉

In the adoration chapel I usually go to…there is a group that prays together after the noon mass…they pray the rosary and divine mercy together…since I could not stay after the noon mass, I usually ask one of them for prayer intercessions. 🙂

Prayer buddies are always good!!

Oh then I might have to go to the other one for noon Mass. The weekday Mass is at a Catholic Center on the college campus, weekend Mass at the church. The only place you can go and pray any during the week is at the Catholic Center but it is set up a rec room for the college kids. The lady I talked to said they go in there to have lunch, play games and so on, so does not sound like the ideal location to go be in quiet and pray.
