"It is better for a man to be silent and be [a Christian], than to talk and not to be one. It is good to teach, if he who speaks also acts." - St. Ignatius of Antioch

The Example of Altar Servers Can Lead Us to Greater Reverence and Appreciation for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Polls tell us that a majority of Americans identifying themselves as Catholic no longer attend Sunday Mass. They do not know what is happening at or Who is present at the Mass.
We must address this deficit in catechesis , as well as the widespread lack of belief in and reverence for the Real Presence of our Lord in the Eucharist.
Monsignor Charles Pope shared a video that helps put these issues in proper perspective. Please take a look.
