So it got me thinking... [[WARNING: The following post is EXTREMELY SARCASTIC and FLIPPANT. If you are pregnant, ashmatic, have a heart condition, or you have no sense of humor... please do not read on.]]
I wonder what greets you at our parish? Let's take a field trip...Well as soon as you enter the foyer the first thing you see is:
Ok... I get it, we are all in danger and we need something to protect us. Good thing we are in a church, I am sure we can find a BUNCH of things to protect us. As we continue through the double set of doors and enter the gathering space. We begin to look for more things to protect us from certain death... and what do we find?
Hmm... I guess we should probably sanitize. Next we walk into the Church proper aka knave aka "worship space." [What are we supposed to call it nowadays anyhow?] As we look around for something else to help "Save" us, I figure looking up to the Sanctuary will help... but alas all that we see is:
Hmmm.... where is the Tabernacle with Jesus in it? I look around figuring that I am sure to find SOMETHING beyond motion activated foam dispensers to protect me from evil.... right?
I see some:
Nope... that's not what we are looking for. There weren't ANY statutes or a Tabernacle in the sanctuary. We did see this next to the preparation and purification table though:
Hmm... there has to be something around here made of brass, bronze, resin, or some other material aside from PROTECTIVE GEL. So we look around some more and see something wooden and something shiny, but as we look closer we realize what we see isn't a Tabernacle or Saints statues... but instead we see:
Ok... we are getting a little frustrated. Yet... we push on and FINALLY find a statute... and a mighty fine one at that:
We also finally find the Tabernacle!!!!
So... the Disenfectant Gel & Foam and Hippie Music Makers outnumber the Statues and Adoration elements 4:1 ...at least we know that there won't be the CCHD campaign this weekend right... ... right?!?? RIGHT!?!?!?!
