We were for several years…we became very close…unfortunately, the group broke up after two deaths and three members moving out of the area…

RU involved in RCIA?
 
RCIA as it is organized in the US doesn’t exist where I live, so no. Catechumens are taught individually by the parish priests. Candidates are referred to the diocese; the clergy are also in charge of that process.

RU selling your current home this year?
 
[That sounds similar to what we had here pre-Vatican II…]

No…this is home…we’ve been here for 31 years, are members of a wonderful parish, have some nice neighbors, and really like the area…I can’t imagine moving…

RU a cyclist?
 
[For all I know, this is the same system that was in place prior to Vat2. Since the vast majority of people born in this country are baptized Catholic, we have far fewer converts than countries in which this does not happen. If I’m not mistaken, one person will be received into the Church this Easter in my parish. Last year there were none. There’s no point in putting an American-style RCIA organization in place for so few people.]

Not a cyclist. Don’t even own a bicycle. 😊

RU a birdwatcher?
 
No. I’ve tried a few and wasn’t good at any of them so I quit them all. 😊

RU of Eastern European descent?
 
[I’m German/Irish…]

I’ve always liked beaches…some fond memories of beach parties long ago…

RU fond of the Sunday comic pages?
 
I was when I was younger, but they don’t exist where I live now. In fact, some French newspapers aren’t even published on Sunday.

RU arthritic?

In general, yes. I’m usually awake around 5am, though I have been known to rise as early as 3am and as late as 10am 😬

(Praying for you 🙏 My whole family suffers from arthritis in some form or another.)

RU taller than 6’ (1.82m)?

Yes I am 6’4" , and thanks for your prayers. I will also pray for your family as well.

RU a stamp collector?
 
No…I was years ago, but I lost interest in it…

RU fond of rides in the country?
 
They are nice experiences. One time there were some horse in a field with coverings over them. My daughter was about 5, and she exclaimed, Mommy, those horses are wearing sweaters!”

R U fond of Spencer Tracy films?
 
Yes…we now have our fourth rescue dog, a 50-lb, four-year-old white lab-boxer mix…the first three have taken up permanent residence in the back yard…

RU a fan of ‘Forged in Fire’?
