Being widowed, I could not answer the one about having a priest for dinner. I just don’t put myself or my priest in that situation.

When I was a child, however, we always had the priest and/or the nuns for dinner.

In fact, as a child, I declared to the priest that I couldn’t attend my parents’ wedding because I had to stay in the car. LOL!

Invite the priest over when you are having a dinner party. We invite our pastor over when we have birthday parties for the kids etc.

At the risk of being called a nitpicker, you would have the priest and nuns FOR dinner if you are a cannibal. If in fact you are a cannibal, you should really say grace first.

I’m hoping you meant, have them TO dinner. It’s a little English lesson that’s stayed with me to this day.
