How adorable :-(

This is my former RC parish where I challenged the pastor regarding liturgical dance and won. Since then, the Tabernacle has been relocated into a room apart with a glass window for the benefit of those who wish to view it and the little children now provide 'reflection' for those who have just received communion. Kudos, NYer -- they still have no liturgical dance.

The children in my Maronite Catholic parish also make music ... with their lungs! They love to chant the responses and now vie with each other to be the peace bearers, having taken the lead from the older children in the parish. One of the older girls is studying the organ and, with much practice, may one day provide relief for our aging organist. We have yet to test her 'butterflies'.
