Then they are FUCKING STUPID.

Your priest has authority to delegate this ministry, given to him by the church, and until his bishop -- who is not some guy in OBOB -- tells him he's wrong, the Catholic believer is pretty much expected to trust his judgment.

WTF. I have only been to one Mass that I know of, but there's no way they could have served that many people without EMHCs.

But God is not in a box inside the Catholic Church.

While His presence is in the Eucharist, He is also working everywhere.

One is at the right hand of the Father interceding for us.

Annabel might remember it.
Jesus was pretty clear God is not in a box.

Ripped the darn curtain in the box and not one stone left on another...

So much for boxes.

Priests have a million & one things they have to do. 24 hour round the clock calls. It is not feasible to have them do every single thing.

Yes my priest asked me specifically.

So I did it regardless of nerves.

Our Bishop just recommisioned me.

So I'd say that these mini-popes should probably take it up with them.
