Seriously? It’s the Mass, not a theater workshop.

I had not seen anything like that in about thirty years.
I thought they had learned better.

The "Clown Mass" as we call it was in 1986.

The clowns were standing in the atrium and I thought to myself, "I hope they wash their faces before they go into Mass."

And then they walked up to the front row and sat there.

And then right after the Gospel message they were invited "on stage" to preform their little act.

I talked to the pastor later and he said, "Well, they wanted to do it so I let them."

I found myself another Church where we still get to kneel for Communion.
