I remember the first time I ...This is a great post. I remember the first time I say an altar girl, I couldn't believe it.<br /><br />I found it very distracting for 2 reasons: <br /><br />First, when something is being done that you know shouldn't be, you (atleast me) can't help but be distracted. Maybe I pay too much attention to little things, I think it's the convert in me, I'm still learning.<br /><br />Second, because girls tend to be very figity and un focused, which is noticable to everyone.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11321550399533528253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35367405.post-22823434193130672872010-01-05T12:50:32.080-05:002010-01-05T12:50:32.080-05:00Amen!
My 3 boys and husband all serve at the Lati...Amen!<br /><br />My 3 boys and husband all serve at the Latin Mass altar and there is definetely something about it. Masculinity and knights of the altar come to mind.<br /><br />Christmas Eve, at a Novus Ordo Mass, I watched as a teen male altar serving was distracted and flirtatious with a female teen altar server...both in sneakers...kinda casual about the whole thing. Just NOT the same...<br /><br />It was distracting to the rest of us, as well.<br /><br />In the traditional Mass it was understood that on the altar a vocation may be perceived and there were more vocations 40 years ago when the altar was a masculine spot...<br /><br />Thank you for this great post. I'm going to link to it on my facebook.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05423794317423373245noreply@blogger.com
