[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please not mine!!  I hate how the church is all crowded with random looky-loos on Christmas.  It'd one thing if you actually respected our faith and were interested in learning more.  But it's s flying spaghetti monster this and pray the gay away that all year and then I have to stand holding my wiggling three year old for an hour on Christmas b/c you need to relive your childhood or something.[/quote]

Try to welcome them.  If they have young kids or are older, give them your seat.  If they are kids/grandkids coming for their yearly Mass obligation with the grandparents, smile, welcome them and make room.

Christmas and Easter are both wonderful times to welcome the lost lambs back into the fold.  Celebrate the fact that your church is standing room only. It shouod be packed to the rafters every week, not just Christmas, Easter or following terrible events like after 9/11.  See those crowded pews as a time of joy and celebration, and make those folks feel welcome so that they might feel a connection and return to church.[/quote]
