You know you’re Catholic when your statue of the Blessed Mother frightens the Jehovah’s Witnesses away.

Unfortunately this hasn’t seemed to scare the ones away in our area. Although, I haven’t seen them in almost a whole year. That has got to be a record! And we have St.Michael in the back and a statue of Jesus. All outside. We should be well protected. You think?

You know you’re a Roman Catholic when . . .
  • If you plan on going to bed at 10pm, you’re really going to bed at 10:15pm.
  • You say the New Roman Missal parts proudly while the congregation stumbles around trying to find their cards.
  • Every time you lose something St. Anthony comes to mind.
  • You have any Bible style apps on your iPhone/Android device.
  • You looked up what Consubstantial meant before the New Roman Missal was put into effect.
  • While society views it as abnormal, you get excited if the opportunity of going to Mass more than one time during a week/weekend presents itself.
 
You know you’re Catholic when the dentist tell you that you need fillings, and you ask if you could have the name of your patron Saint engraved in them first.

You know you’re Catholic when you could say the Rosary before you could speak.

You know you’re Catholic when you decide on what tea to drink according to the liturgical season. (Ordinary Time - Green Tea, Red - Orange Pekoe, White - Chamomile, etc)

You know you’re Catholic when you think it’s sacrilege to eat any cracker or biscuit in the shape of a perfect circle because you think it mocks th Blessed Sacrament.

You know you’re Catholic when the Priest consults you as to what vestments he should wear before Mass.

You know you’re Catholic when all your bottled water has an Exorcism blessing on it because you never know what the company supports.

You know you’re Catholic when it makes you cry that your cable company is having difficulties and you can’t watch the Religious Catalogue on EWTN. You then file a complaint and threaten to sue the company because it breeches religious freedom.

You know you’re Catholic when you realise that you can’t sue the cable company because it wasn’t their fault EWTN was unavailable.

You know you’re Catholic when you can list 67 shades of Green off the top of your head and at least 78 shades of Black (in regards to vestments)

You know you’re Catholic when you know you’re Catholic because you believe everything the Church teaches, therefore you’re Catholic and so you must know you’re Catholic.
 
More than half of the contacts in your cell phone are churches, priests, deacons or sisters, and you have the Cathedral on speed-dial! :D:p
 
You know when you are a Filipino Roman Catholic when you are don’t know your faith. Hehehe… Again, that’s a sad reality of most Filipino Catholics in the Philippines.

You know when you are a Filipino Roman Catholic when you never experience Confession even once before Communion… Again, another sad reality of most Filipinos.

You know when you are a Filipino Roman Catholic when you don’t know that Sola Scriptura is not the foundation of our faith…

You say a prayer (and you really mean it) for the souls of those who think Catholics are deluded and lacking in reality --because you know those poor people are the ones who are really deluded and ‘know not what they are doing’. May God bring them all to faith and understanding through His Divine Son and Lord and His Holy Catholic Church.

AMEN!!
 
You know your a Catholic when you usually disagree with someone in this forum but realize that you are brothers/sisters in Christ and will eventually laugh about all of this in Heaven together. 😃
 
RubyT, I love that one! lol.

You might be a Catholic when you know more about wine than the guy at your local liquor store. :rotfl:

you don’t put your wise men figures in the nativity set until the eve of Epiphany, and you have them, with their camel, “travel” from Christmas until then by moving them a little bit closer each night.

You’re probably a Catholic when you watch an EWTN shopping channel just to see what silly thing Mother Angelica will say or do next.

(One time she was selling rosaries. “We have this very nice ruby one…and this beautiful sapphire one…isn’t it gorgeous? Of course its probably not real sapphires, I think it must be glass, or plastic or something, but hey, what do I know? Maybe they are real jewels! If so, YOU’RE GETTING A BARGAIN!”
Then she accidentally dropped the olivewood crucifix from Jerusalem and gave it a couple great big kisses: “I just think he needs a smooch when that happens, wouldn’t you?”)

Oh my stars!!! I have seen her kiss the Crucifix before!!
One time, she accidentally bumped the big Crucifix (that she used to wear) with a microphone. She immediately took it into her hands and kissed the feet and said “Sometimes He just needs a kiss doesn’t He.”

I LOVE her! She helped me so much when I was on my journey into the Church! 🙂
 
You frantically search EVERY yard sale, Estate sale, GOODWILL store and Thrift Shop for ALL things Catholic!! (I purchased a 1943 Concise Catholic Dictionary yesterday at an Estate Sale for .25 cents!) 😃

When the church bulletin says “CHURCH RUMMAGE SALE NEXT WEEK” and you just know you’re going to find a NEW ROSARY there and the thought of it gives you goosebumps!! :dancing:

When you hear someone say “Oh my G0D” & you automatically think, “They’ll have to confess that”.
