Summary
Listeners call with concerns over Eucharistic ministers, murmured conversations during prayer, hand gestures at Mass, and even applause after hymns, while Patrick addresses each with candor, encouragement, and practical suggestions—never shying from the tricky nuances of Church teaching or daily life.
- Patrick shares a story about speaking at a parish when a Mormon gentleman came up to ask him about “the little curtsey” he did in front of the Tabernacle. (01:31)
- Maria - I was invited to be a Eucharistic Minister, but I have reservations. I see things that are not right. Is it a sin not to do it? (07:45)
- Cindy - I agree that it is sad that a lot of Catholics don't believe in the Eucharist. I had a dream that I was in Church and was seeing they were giving Communion to people and I saw the face of Jesus in the Eucharist. Why would I dream this? (15:46)
- Dave - I love the reverence of the Eucharist, but when people do things like the 'unicycle' it can scare people away. I wish we were consistent with what the Church does. (17:58)
- Linda - My kids used to say, 'We don't understand' why we have to dress up for Mass. (22:11)
- John - I am a Eucharist minister. I do give a blessing. It is really not the person giving the blessing, as the blessing is really from God. It is just like saying 'God bless you'. (26:36)
- Maria - People talking very loudly at Mass makes it hard to concentrate. Is it ok to tell people to be quiet? (37:26)
- Fr. Mark (email) – There can be confusion about convalidation… (47:32)
