We run to the altar. We are actually rushed to the altar after waiting for all the sleeveless women and shorts and sandals wearing guys to go up to the altar to first

I like to sit up front. For me, it's less distracting; easier to go up to receive with my cane; and I get to pray while the others receive.

My Monsignor who was pastor when I was growing up, once stopped the Offertory to tell a late comer to please go back home and put some clothing on! (She was wearing shorts). My last pastor had a niece who helped tend the grounds and dress the Altar. She had sets of blouses and skirts for females who came in without being properly covered! Smart idea, good lesson.
