I would love to hear from you, and I'm here for you. If you have a question, a comment, maybe you have a need of a second |
| 0:38.8 | opinion. You heard something. You want to run it by me. Feel free. I'm here to help out. 888-914-9-19-19-49. Here is an |
| 0:47.1 | email that came in overnight. This is from Reba. Not that Reba. This Reba is listening on the Relevant Radio app, and the subject of her email is, |
| 0:57.5 | Children in Mass, do I dare? She says, I'm a stay-at-home mom to six kids, ages six months to eight |
| 1:03.4 | years. I long to attend daily Mass. However, my children are a handful for Sunday Mass, and that's |
| 1:08.6 | with my husband there. I fear that when I |
| 1:10.9 | attend Mass with my children alone, I am more of a distraction to others than anything. Attending |
| 1:16.1 | Mass with four boys under four is the advanced version of Catholic aerobics. I've seen my wife do that. |
| 1:24.3 | I know exactly what you're talking about. I know that the topic of children |
| 1:28.1 | in mass has been discussed before, but I would be honored if you would have the time to address my |
| 1:32.6 | situation. God bless, Reba. P.S. feel free to share any tips and tricks you and Nancy have from your |
| 1:37.8 | small children in mass days. Well, thanks for the invitation, Reba. So here goes. Number one, I am always going to advocate for |
| 1:48.9 | parents bringing their children to mass regardless of how young they are. I know that there is |
| 1:54.1 | a notion abroad in the land. I have met people who hold the view that when the children are |
| 2:00.5 | young, young, you know, from infants to maybe by the time they get into, I don't know, preschool, that you really probably shouldn't bring them to Mass. And I've even known people who will split up going to Mass. The husband and the wife will go at different times so that one can stay home with the younger kids while the other one goes to Mass. And I understand the logic behind it in terms of, well, we want to be able to concentrate. |
| 2:20.8 | I understand all that. |
| 2:21.9 | Personally, however, I think I could speak for Nancy on this one. |
| 2:26.5 | We have always – this is what we did when we were raising our 11 children. |
| 2:30.8 | And this is what I advocate, and that is bring your children to church immediately. |
| 2:37.8 | Start going to mass with your children from the time they're born. And there are a few things that |
| 2:43.6 | will happen as a result of that. If you do it, you know, this is my suggestion in any case. |
