Another pet peeve is when you go to a funeral and the priest says that he knows that the person is in heaven right now. They never want to focus on that fact that everyone should be praying for the person. If I was in purgatory and all my family just thought I was already in heaven and didn't pray for me, I would be disappointed.

Top Pet Peeves: 1. Eucharistic Ministers 2. Clapping during the mass *cringe*

Non-Catholics need to unlearn a lot of things about Catholics

These are definitely up there with my top pet peeves as well! When people say their dead loved one is now their guardian angel..

The world needs more based Catholics like you, Amber.

I’m in RCIA right now! Y’all pray for me and all the RCIA classes this time around. Thank you guys! I loved the video you just got a new subscriber

YES! Communion on the tongue! You don't know how refreshing it is to hear this for me, where I live on a college campus where most people receive on the hand.

Excellent video, Amber! My pet peeve: When fallen away Catholics say they attended 8-12 years of Catholic school as usage of credibility especially when they give some ignorant or ridiculous reason why the Church is wrong or that the belief in God is nonsensical. An example would be a fallen away Catholic who was an altar server saying the he knew the Catholic Church was a fraud when he learned that the communion wafers he was preparing were delivered in a brown box. What were you expecting, First Class Delivery via doves? Or when another fallen away Catholic assured people that transubstantiation was only believed by a small, fringe group of Catholics, and that the Eucharist was just used as symbol of Jesus' body and blood.

Catholics who do not genuflect in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. (P.s used to be me). Not anymore tho!

Had no idea about the Eucharist in the hand thing. I was taught that as a child during my first communion. I will receive it in the mouth from now on.

My pet peeve is when people say that they have salvation because they're "good people" or because the "follow" the 10 commandments cause they don't kill or robe. If only it was that easy 😂

Another pet peeve of mine is when congregants spread their hands for the Our Father

One of my biggest pet peeves is conversation in the church. I really gets to me because this is the house of God and he is present in the most holy sacrament and resting in the Tabernacle (hence the red candle beside it). I see way too many people standing at the ends of pews, in the middle of them, and even at the doors facing inwards. Such a lack of reverence. Another is the disrespect towards the Catholic Church. So many protestants and "non- denominational" Christians mock and dis-respect the Catholic Church of which their practices come from. Apparently, I can't say something that is against what they believe, but I can stand there and be criticized by them and be forced to take it because I'll be disrespectful to them. Sorry, I wanted to keep it short, but I get heated too. Thank you for always sharing! I love your content. You were one of the first Catholic Content Creators I saw on TikTok and have found many others because of your page. God Bless you always!

While I appreciate your zeal, one of my biggest pet peeves is people who judge me for receiving the Blessed Sacrament in my hands, without knowing anything about my compromised health making it highly inadvisable for others to put their hands near my mouth, and who condemn me as being less reverent as a result.

i always used to think humans became angels, but i've been learning much more about my faith. you become a saint which is awesome. it's so interesting to hear what you think. i love hearing others talk about being catholic. being catholic is awesome. we pray with Mary, the saints, and adoration is a whole other story. Adoration is my favorite thing ever. we get to sit right in the presence of jesus and pray. it always makes me cry, but that's just being vulnerable in the presence of god.

I love your content, and I understand why these things are your pet peeves, but I also hope to caution you to take care not to go too far into judgement of others, especially when you don't know why they are doing certain things. The one about being late or leaving mass early is especially one I think about. As a mother and who knows mothers of 6, 7, 8, 10 children I can say typically we try to be on time for everything. But if your kid needs a diaper change or a baby needs to be fed, that will come at inopportune times(including during mass even). Unfortunately you can't put them on a schedule. And as someone who works and tries to go to weekday masses when I can, I usually have to leave early on work days to be at my job on time. As much as I would love to stay for all of mass, some days are rushed. If work can be avoided or started later, that is great for those people. But my job is on a schedule and I must be there at my scheduled time. I agree you should not leave early to avoid people or just to get home.. but yeah just some insight on that one. The other one that I kind of agree but also disagree with is receiving the Eucharist in the hand. There is a way to to reverently receive in your hand, there are also abuses. We can absolutely call out the abuses that you addressed, but lumping everyone who receives in the hand as irreverent when the church does allow that practice can certainly be too deep in judgement and people may have a reason to do so. Such as maybe they are sick and do not want the priest's fingers to have germs for the next person. I agree irreverent behavior is an issue, but boxing in reverent behavior as a specific action and discrediting all other actions is why the protestants have so many issues with us bowing to statues because to them, bowing is worship and reverence and so they can't even understand how bowing is not worship. I personally kneel and receive in the mouth, but I know people who reverently receive in the hand as well. Hope this helps you to understand some of the things that may be challenging you or that may lead you into a traditionalist/God forbid, SSPX type situation. I have seen it happen with too many people. Have mercy on people, especially when you don't know their story. God bless you and your mission! Seriously love your videos!

When you mentioned that pet peeve about that dude who shoved you to cut in front of an old lady to receive Holy Communion, I thought about what was written: “Everyone who is now last will be first, and everyone who is first will be last.” (Matthew 20:16)

My pet peeves are when people say the Lords name in vain, when people don’t see the intellectual Side of Catholicism, when people make sexual jokes and make fun of catholicism, and impatience and lack of self-control when it comes to people acting on their wrath.

Not wanting to hold hands during the Lord’s Prayer but the lady next to me grabs my hand anyway. Hopefully after covid that would end.

The eating thing! If you can't go for an hour without eating, maybe time management is something to look into. I have POTS, so I sip some Gatorade or Pedialyte before going into the church.

I appreciate your passion. I just found your channel and have only begun to watch your videos. Though I have not committed myself to the Roman Catholic Church, I have found many of the Roman Catholic faith practices beneficial. In March of 2015 I was present in an active shooting, I was three feet away from the shooter. Since that time I have endured horrific attacks from PTSD, from flashbacks and still images of the shooting and it's aftermath. Nightmares, anxiety and panic attacks and other horrific attacks. I felt as if I was losing my mind and was seeking for a way to handle these attacks. I had remembered that my grandmother was a devoted Roman Catholic and I began to look into the Roman Catholic faith. I have actively been praying from my Catholic Book of Prayers, following the Mass Readings from the 1962 Roman Catholic Daily Missal and reading devotions from the book Divine Intimacy. I have found the writings of St. Teresa of Avila both comforting and encouraging. I truly believe the Lord has used this faith practice to guide me through the hellish attacks of PTSD, giving me some firm footing. I was an active Word of Faith Bible Teacher, though my experiences with PTSD and the battle I had to fight often and with no instant healing caused me to consider a different path. It is comforting to now understand that the suffering I endure is the partaking in the sufferings of Christ (Colossians 1:24). The Roman Catholic faith expression I find appealing is the Carmelite faith tradition. This is probably why I find comfort in the writings of St. Teresa of Avila and the devotional writings from Father Gabriel Of St. Mary Magdalen in his book Divine Intimacy. Sorry for my long comment. Blessings in Jesus Name!

I just found your channel and WOW! I immediately liked and subscribed on the first pet peeve👍❤

I actually grew up in a Lutheran church where they did communion on the tongue with the alter rail. After becoming Catholic it was honestly very weird taking communion in the hand for the first time. I wouldn't exactly call it a pet peeve of mine (who am I to say how my God should come to me?), but I would welcome a change back to the alter rail.

Beautiful video just found your channel! I’m a traditional catholic and I agree with all these!

Goshhh,,,, i love your videos. May God bless you Sister in Christ.

Does anyone have recommendations on how to start receiving the communion on your tongue when everyone else receives in the hand?

My family is late to mass a lot and sometimes that effects me getting to mass early. I get very annoyed by this and they don’t seem to care. I’m in college now and am able to be at mass at least 10 minutes early. Being early allows me time to pray and is allows me to get into the right frame of mind. Another bonus is that I can find seats when I’m early, since I’m short and have troubles focusing, I like to sit towards the front.

Totally agree with every single one of your points!

Wow! So strong and powerful right from the start! God bless you!

That cheesy dad joke in the beginning 😂 I love it

Just discovered your channel. Wish more people were as into the faith as you are. I couldn't agree with you more on your observations. Keep up the good work.

Eucharist in the hand, yes! I had an amazing RCIA teacher who explained it just like you did. We don't deserve to touch the flesh with our hands.

I agree with everything you said I don't like receiving the Eucharist in the hand but since a priest at my Church got Covid-19 they prohibited receiving the Eucharist in the tongue and now I have to lick my hands after.

I am always worried about watching videos like this but as soon as I saw the fist one I felt a lot better.

How loud it is before the Saturday vigil mass when people are trying to give confession

Love this video. Agree 100%

I 100% agree with you on the subject of the Eucharist. Because of Covid our pastor decided to start doing Communion by intinction. I was having a conversation with some friends about how to receive. I actually looked it up in the General Istructions of the Roman Missal (GIRM), because I saw people grabbing the intincted host out of Father's hand. I told my friends that an intincted host MUST be received on the tongue. They actually got upset and said it was none of my business.

I'll be honest I have left mass early when I went to mass by myself because the message was too convicting. You should do a video on learning to deal with being uncomfortable

The leaving mass early KILLS ME. I was always taught you don’t move until the priest has processed out first and then every can start filing out of the pews behind him. Also one time in mass a man was clipping his nails 😖 we all could hear the nail clipper but couldn’t figure out who was doing it. Once someone figured out who, multiple ppl scowled at him until he stopped 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 but he never did it again 🤷🏻‍♀️ I couldn’t believe it I was so baffled he thought that was appropriate 😣

Could you please share where you buy your rosaries? They look so good.

My big pet peeve that has bothered me for years is during the “sign of peace” when people disingenuously wave the peace sign ✌️ at you. It’s so impersonal and reeks of modernist hippie Catholicism from the 60’s.

Hey Amber Rose - love the channel! Totally agree with 4 of the 5 - especially the late to Mass part - i hate being late to Mass worse than a toothache! The one im not with you on is the communion line. I am NOT in favor of the traditional row-by-row communion line process you find at most N.O. parishes. Here's the thing - it's not really traditional. Im old enough to remember when people got up and got in the communion line when they wanted to and not in any pre-defined row-by-row way. Some people wanted to be first in line, others waited until the end. Here's why that was good - there was no real way to see who went to communion, and who abstained. Let's face it - we're all fallen and we all sometimes sin and aren't worthy of receiving. We had to work or just couldn't make the 1/2 hour of confession available on Saturday afternoon (another major pet-peeve that is in MY top 5). Or maybe we broke the fast unthinkingly. Whatever. But the row-by-row reception makes it really obvious that someone isn't receiving. And that adds social pressure to receive unworthily. Certainly happens to me.

Can someone actually explain to me why receiving Communion in the hand is more sanitary than receiving on the tongue? I have thought about this ever since Covid first hit. I used to be in the army and we trained extensively in biological warfare. One of the main things we trained on is cross-contamination and limiting the amount of contact you have with contaminated surfaces. So if you receive on the tongue you have only one point of possible contact. If the priest sanitizes his hands prior to distribution the only contact is the Host going from his hand to your tongue. He doesn't touch you. Sure you open your mouth and could breathe on him, but if you receive in the hand the Host goes from his fingers to your hand and you still have to open your mouth to say Amen and consume the Body of Christ. In addition, your hands have probably been in contact with the dirty pew, maybe your purse or the collection envelope and who knows what other contaminated surfaces. Then you pick up the Host out of your contaminated, dirty hands and put it on your own tongue. How is this more sanitary than receiving on the tongue?

I don't disagree with you but my biggest pet peeve is when people are intolerant of little children in Church and don't understand HOW DIFFICULT it is to keep toddlers happy so YES I am going to give my child a snack during mass if that helps her settle down. I DO feed her before mass but I also make sure I pack snacks because you never know. It Is so rude when people get mad at mothers who bring their little ones. There is NO FUTURE of the Church without the children!!! Also it's hard enough without the judgement and snarky looks. Ugh. Rant over. Please be more compassionate to mothers and their little ones.

I take public transportation to Mass, and I haven’t habitually came to Mass late. Usually, I’m there at least 5-10 minutes early if not 30-40 minutes early (which the parish I’m transitioning to offers confession 45 minutes before Sunday Mass, 30 minutes before non Sunday daily Mass, and from 3-4:30pm on Saturday afternoon). If none of those confession times work, or let’s say you’re temporarily in the hospital, you can make an appointment or in the latter case, your priest or the chaplain priest for the hospital can visit you and you can have the Sacrament of Confession in the hospital. I’ve had the Sacraments of Confession, Anointing of the Sick and the Eucharist in a short term psychiatric hospital (I have bipolar disorder, and if I don’t take care of it with meds and therapy, I can end up planning my own death or even go so far as I’m a suicide attempt survivor).

pet peeve: Pachamama at the Vatican

Lol! Just finding your channel. May God bless you! This is great! I share in your pet peeves. Except the cutting in the communion line. If I go to the Novus Ordo you’ll see me cut in the communion line to avoid the Eucharistic ministers and receive Our Lord from the priest only. Except in extreme circumstances the priest is the only one whose hands are consecrated to handle Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Having Eucharistic ministers, especially 5 of them to distribute Holy Communion to 40 or so people, is an abuse that I refuse to participate in. To me it’s just as bad as Communion in the hand.

The following is from the book “God is Near Us” (Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, Ignatius Press, 2001). “If we read what the Fathers say, we can see in what spirit of reverence they received Communion. We find a particularly fine passage in the writings of Cyril of Jerusalem, from the fourth century. In his catechetical homilies he tells the candidates for baptism what they should do at Communion. They should make a throne of their hands, laying the right upon the left to form throne for the King, forming at the same time a cross. …which becomes a throne, down into which the King inclines himself” (p.70).

I've only really experienced your pet peeves during Novus Ordo masses. since I've been attending the TLM I haven't seen these offenses., also after Covid I've mostly attended SSPX masses (with a few archdiocese TLM masses depending on my son's hockey scheduling) and there's a lot more reverence at them. The closes TLM church to me is SSPX , which also remained open except for one week during the 2020 spring-summer lockdowns in PA, and it was because of an issue which Monsenior quickly resolved with our county D.A. We also had an exemption from the mask mandate. I also noticed at the diocese parish where the 10AM Novus Ordo people came out "masked up" and when we went in for the 11:30 TLM, no masks were worn.

My pet peeve has to be: we are suppose to put Christ in the centre of the things we do, every minute of everyday. So I do, when I’m happy or sad, laughing or crying, I cry out “oh Lord/God.” All the while silently praying for guidance/ wisdom and then taking a breath But all outsiders hear (and judge) is that I was saying the Lord’s name in vain. They don’t hear the prayer yet I’m accused of committing a commandment 🤪❤️🙏🏼

I completely agree with receiving the Eucharist through the mouth, but now during Covid, I am not allowed to, so I have to, and I personally don't think its wrong at the moment, because we have to. Also, i agree with every single one of these pet peeves, lol.

Someone commented about not eating a hour after receiving the Eucharist. I thought it was only 15 minutes?.....I would appreciate help. May God bless you in the year

there is a older couple in church that leave right after receiving the eucharist every Sunday...the wife goes to the bathroom or to smoke a cigarette during the homily every Sunday!!!...really??? blows my mind!!!

I could not have said it better. Common sense to me. My biggest is drivers who have to be first out of the church parking lot. They don't allows others to merge in by alternating as if they can't wait to leave. Road rage in the church parking lot - really?

Yeah, I don't like when people cut, I tend to sit in the middle in NO masses usually and I stop to let the people in the pew before me first

I've returned to the church just when Covid-19 started, so unfortunately I still haven't got the chance to receive the Eucharist on the tongue because wearing a mask is required :(

I really agree with all those things and these are my pet peeves too! I really agree with receiving the communion in the hand isn't respectful but for me, there are no Traditional Latin Mass around 😢🥺.. I think there is one but she is 40 minutes far. But I will lovveee it so much, TLM are amazing and that's a thing I want absolutely to go at in 2021! You know you are bless to have a TLM mass to go to! I know it isn't respectful to receive it like that but I just try my best and receive it with all my heart ❤️ cause I really feel ashamed now to have received like this since my first communion🥺 God bless you!

One of my pet peeves as a Catholic is hearing children making too much noise during Mass. I have ADHD so I have a hard time ignoring the noises made by children during Mass

Wow i 100% agree. expecially whit the point 1

Pet peeves : people talking in church, before service as others pray around them and letting their children run about..

Another Pet Peeve is as soon as the priest start to talking about the homily is like everyone is just waiting for that time to go to the bathroom.

My pet peeves are: the post Covid cringe to give peace bowing. So many people standing up during "lift up your hearts". Joyful songs for Kyrie Eleison. People kinda loudly talking when mass is over while still inside the church. Songs supposed to be solemn but sung in a depressing way. People who go to confession that take so long that it looks like spiritual direction so you end up not confessed and neither receiving Eucharist. I think that's it.

Pet peeve? Ah yes I have one. When the offering plate slows down and comes to a stop in front of me. Like what!

- when people ignore the line for confession and/or when the space near the confessional is small or not clearly identified and you don't understand who is waiting for confession and who not, in what order etc. - when people chat inside the church before or during mass like it was a cafe or a park - young or middle age people not kneeling at consecration - people wanting so badly to lead the singing and/or reading scriptures at their parish when they are NOT good at that -_- - people not even trying to sing - modern churches with weird architectures where you don't understand where the Blessed Sacrament even is - Parents who allow children to bring noisy toys at mass - panhandlers or (way worse) street vendors that come -inside- the church and bother people praying - dramatic/emotional prayers that make a scene in the church (rare in catholicism but there are some) - tourists inside the church acting like they were at the zoo - ELECTRONIC CANDLES - ...grumpy people who should exercise compassion more, like me :P

My only disagreement I have with this video is that..my aunt is diabetic…she can’t help that sometimes she has to eat a fun sized candy bar during Mass. She literally has to eat when she has low blood sugar or she will faint.

I’m not catholic but been to mass but I have something called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome and to sum it up any change in posture can pass out, my blood pressure drops, heart rate sky rockets. I have had to go to the hospital early March while at church because of pots so I always carry a hydroflask, a salty snack like popcorn, and my salt tablets in case of worst case scenario it’s happened. I talked to my best friend who is catholic when I come to mass with her and she said that’s a different story because I have a chronic illness. I bring the same to my nondenominational church. I also carry around a pulse ox I know strange but it’s for my safety I have also passed out at church before. Is it still wrong if it’s to prevent me passing out specifically with the up and down I just get so dizzy. I’ll leave my stuff in the car if it’s more respectful to do so. I guess I just never asked this question to someone who might know the answer just to my best friend I met in 7th grade when my mom sent me to catholic school for half a year

I respect that many people feel strongly about receiving on the tongue. However the church permits receiving on the hand as well (obviously with reverence). No one is a lesser Catholic for receiving on the hands. Just wanted to say this because I’ve been seeing many comments around the internet on this topic and a few of them get a bit rude and condescending. I was taught to receive on the hand for my first communion and up until a little while ago I didn’t even know about receiving on the tongue, but the Lord knows our hearts and that’s what’s ultimately important I think. If the church didn’t permit it I would think differently but since She does at this time It doesn’t bother me which way people choose to receive. All that being said I’m personally in favor of receiving on the tongue now and I would be all for a reform to make that the standard.

I need to bring water because my throat feels dry and I don’t want to faint.

Communion in the hand is probably my top one too. I don’t even go to TLM all that often although I do love it. But Communion in the hand i have major problems with! At St. Peter’s in the Loop they are still requiring it because of COVID! I’ve gotten angry with them on the phone, but politely! letting them know they are the only place in the Arch of Chicago doing this. Even at Old St Pats you can receive on the tongue no problem (edit actually depends on the priest, I got denied Communion today 😕 very rare I go there but if I’m downtown at noon)

Communion: 1. At a rail 2. On your knees 3. On the tongue This is the way

God is love❤

While I agree with you we have to remember that certain people just lack common sense for a variety of reasons. As Catholics we all need to keep our peace regardless of what’s going on wrong around us.

Then why do they teach us to receive communion with our hands when we are preparing for our first communion?

I went to mass a few months ago and stuck out my tongue for the Eucharist especially since I'm in my 50s and that's how I always have gotten it that way...the priest refused and I had to stick my hands out...I haven't gone to that church since

I have daily migraines and I need to have water with me so I can take medication asap, as the med is to be taken at onset of the migraine.

Thankfully I’ve never seen anyone eat or drink during Mass or Adoration, but it would definitely peeve me too haha. However, there was one time where a woman, during adoration, took off her sandals, turned the chair in front of her around, and propped her feet up for the next hour 😖. I also can’t stand it when healthy teens/adults can’t find it within themselves to touch their knee fully to the ground when genuflecting.. or can barely curtsy before throwing themselves down into the pew. (and the Rosary being used as a necklace or some kind of fashion statement piece by people who know it’s something special but don’t care?? Blood boiling!)... just to name a few... :)

I think with the Angels thing I don’t think people put a lot of theological thought into it I think they just say that to comfort people who’ve lost love ones

Thanks for reminding me that there are still people out there who believe people who die become angels in heaven 😂

I will admit that I leave mass when I go to Monday mass at my college, but that is only because it starts at 1230 and I have class at 1.

What you said about Holy Communion in the hand is soooo true!!! I could not agree more!

Why did she call me out so hard with that 2 a.m. 😭 it's too accurate

I was at Mass the other day and a fellow Catholic was on her phone for about 15 minutes, I in my folly felt anger, which is wrong, but I glared over at her to make my discontent known, which resulted in me being too embarrassed to give her the sign of peace. My family tell me I'm too angry and need to be accepting, but to make irreverent a Holy Mass to me is such disrespect to all mass goers in attendance and God himself. Sad.

Not in any real order other than how they come to mind. 1. Folk Music-type Songs at Mass. I grew up at parish where the music selection was a congregational choir that was infamously tone-deaf or one that was tone-deaf but played along with a praised band that seemed to only know folk music style worship songs from the '60's and the St. Louis Jesuits along with modified mainline prot songs and both congregations often intermingled. What made it really bad is that if I tried suggesting so more traditionally Catholic they would shoot it saying it was difficult. 2. Not knowing the traditional position or you're hands in worship. This is mostly a catch all for the laity praying in the Orans position. Some people imitating the priests signs over the bread and wine and of course holding hands. 3. Being offered just the body. This happened a few times especially during COVID-19 where I would get to a parish and they would only serve out the body and not the blood. Just feels disappointing like you're going to catch up with a friend and you keep getting interrupted. 4. Woke priests sermons having little to do with the scripture lessons, the feast day and what not in favor of sermon on mother nature and other SJWstuff.

My biggest pet peeve, is when some Christians claim that "faith alone can give you salvation." Which is complete nonsense, because all our sins are accounted for whether we have faith or not.

Amen

I try to focus on the Mass and prayer. Although distracting, I try to ignore all actions in church I don't agree with. If I attend NO Mass, I kneel down with my hands clasped in prayer during The Sign of Peace. I would do the same during the Our Father if someone tried to hold my hand.

My Top 5 Pet Peeves as a Catholic 1. Being told I’m not a real Catholic based on what an atheist or Protestants preconceived notions on my faith are. 2. Teen Masses Groups. Mass is not the same as an assembly so I will not be engaged when the priest is talking about aliens and Fortnite and I can’t even decipher what the priest is trying to say when the other teens who were dragged by their parents are sending each other snaps and talking about a girl or guy they see at mass. 3. Certain Catholic Youth Groups who have less an emphasis on the Catholic Faith and more on the Youth Group. I want to speak out loud saying things like, “You cannot combine Catholicism with BLM.” Mainly this has to do with one Group LifeTeen, and while they have great people at Steubenville Conferences, they have this SJW garbage like “What is Privilege?” and President Randy Raus calling many for Catholic Action Against Police Brutality. They don’t even know what Police Brutality looks like because they only look at MSNBC, NBC, or CNN and don’t actually have a relative in that line of work to actually explain why certain things happened. I say it goes like this, “no matter what color skin you are, if you assault a cop, expect to get shot.” 4. When someone cannot admit that they don’t know something on faith and gives misinformation 5. When someone is dating for the sake of dating. Knowingly wasting time with someone without any intention of marriage is deplorable and disgusting.

Hi Amber Rose Love Ur Channel b blessed.

My pet peeves is communion in hand...immodest dress ( women unveiled and/or dressed like they're going to clubbing in something very short or formal fitting and men in shorts and flip flops and band t shirts etc)...talking in mass ( prayer of Thanksgiving after communion interrupted by someone talking to me though context I understand my first mass and I was overwhelmed but wasn't how the lady thought I just felt the presence of God there when I walked up for blessing as couldn't yet receive and that was the first time I truly felt God in the sacred space so was overwhelmed in a good way not nervous anxiety. I took a breath before I Said to her God is here it's real and went back to Thanksgiving prayer. It was confirmination I had been led to HIS church then, .)

I relate to the lateness, talking and eating

As far as I know, it's against Canon Law to refuse to give the Eucharist on the tongue yet it's happens all the time! Especially in churches in countries where Eucharist on the hand is the cultural norm.

Hi I'm a revert...I thought soul's only became saints after the soul preforms several miracles....do I remember that incorrectly

People receiving Communion in the hand is my biggest pet peeve as a Catholic also!

My biggest pet peeves: when people bring their dogs to church, Eucharistic ministers, Communion on the hand, guitar, drums or violin in mass. It drives me crazy. I personally have never seen adults eating or drinking in mass (thank God) but I have seen some parents bring a little bag of Cheerios for their kids but that’s doesn’t annoy me as much because in a way I do understand.

I agree with you 100%!! I just started receiving on the tongue and I love it! My church has kneelers at the front for us to kneel when we received the tongue.

Don't know when it started, but singing the Lord's Prayer instead of praying it like normal.

God Bless you , kid.

Prior to Vatican II in the 1950's and 1960's as a Catholic boy, I went to the altar and the priest placed the Eucharist on the tongue. Blame Pope John XXIII and Pope Paul VI who were responsible for the Novus Ordum and this Protestantized Roman Catholic religion. I had a discussion with a Catholic friend my age (I'm 76) and told him I give communion a fifty/fifty chance that Transubstantiation is taking place. This is the reason I have been a lapsed Catholic occassionally.

1:40 yeah that happened at my church. Satinists started coming into my church they went up to receive and then they would stuff it in their pockets and take them. So so awful but we fixed the problem.

Hello I am 19 I’m in the US Army and I’m a catholic and I am definitely trying to bring back the knights Templar in a modern setting a PMC that protects Catholics all around the world but I need your advice would Jesus accept this if accomplished or would it be frowned upon by Jesus and several other Catholics I hate seeing the murder of many of our people all around the world
