[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - I am going with Little Flower. I called trying to find out about parking, seating, tickets etc. No one is  responding. Does anyone know more about this? Thank you![/quote]

It should be on their website. Also I have regularly attended mass in 3 countries outside the US. Unless you are a member of the US military then they all get political and they all were embroiled in scandal. I am not defending the US catholic church by any means but if you actually think the church is apolitical in your country then you are very naive.[/quote]

This is simply not true, at least in Latin America and Southern Europe.

Mass is about the Bible and about individual and family behavior, week after week, month after month. It's not about discussing politics.[/quote]

It depends on the particular country in Latin America, but in some countries the Church has been very political active. Both right and left wing. Clergy have been assassinated for their left wing activism—Romero is a great example. In the town in Ecuador where I worked, what parish you attended identified your politics and the feast day of the saint was often the occasion of political speeches. [/quote]
