Father, you did it again!
You are so gifted in so many ways.
Your sermon was right on. The poem you shared was a shock to
the heart and soul.
But when you refused to hold up our Blessed Lord’s Body and Blood while the bells were rung three times;
When you so irritatingly directed the Extraordinary minister of the Cup as to where she was to stand;
When you interrupted the distribution of Holy Communion to encourage communicants to stop and pick up a copy of the poem you read at Mass and which you had placed on the altar rail;
When you just threw our Lord into my wife’s hands.
This is all too much.
There was nothing reverent and Sacred about the manner in
which you distributed Holy Communion today. No one's belief in our Lord's Real Presence would have been enhanced.
It was offensive...
Father…please pause…take a close look at what others see…and adjust
what you do.
