[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have ever attended Mass at the Basilica, you would have understood that the priest takes religion seriously. Unless you have a plan for swaying him,I would suggest going somewhere else. It has always been a school that goes to Mass a lot.. More so than other schools in the Diocese.[/quote] Most priests “take religion seriously.” But forcing kids to go to mass 3x a week (not including the FOURTH mass on Sunday!) will just turn most kids off from religion. It’s excessive. Going to mass 3x a week at the expense of math, reading, and writing is not healthy. And it’s not how most Catholic schools operate. And I strongly suspect that even the teachers don’t appreciate the disruption. How long do Rectors stay before they transfer or rotate out???? [/quote] But are kids actually going to Mass three times a week? That isn’t clear to me after reading this thread. Sounds like there was one week with 2 Masses and then Stations? If that’s the case, this doesn’t sound like a huge deal. It is Lent, after all.[/quote]
