A Child's Perspective on Mothers A group of second graders was quizzed about what ingredients their mothers are made of. One

youngster said, “Mothers don't do spare time.” When the children were asked “Why did God give you your mother and not some other mom?” one child replied, “God knew she likes me a lot more

than other people's moms like me.”

Pew Protocol for Mass Manners

Attire - The idea of “Sunday best” should be honored; churchgoers of all ages should dress conservatively. Coat and tie is appropriate for men, but not required. Women should wear modest dresses, skirts and slacks; no tank tops, short skirts or tight-fitting clothing.

Arrival - Arrive at least 10 minutes before Mass begins. This helps reduce distractions and provides time to get settled. Latecomers should wait to be seated by ushers so as not to disrupt the service and the congregation. There will be no seating while lectors are proclaiming the Word of God.

Entering the church It is usual to bless yourself with holy water, and as a sign of respect for the Blessed Sacrament, genuflect before taking your seat. Slide over to the center of the pew to accommodate others who arrive after you.

Quiet time - The liturgy is not the time to socialize with friends or prepare the offering envelope. Instead, sit quietly or pray. Turn off cell phones and pagers.

Communion - Receive the holy Eucharist with reverence, bow slightly and respond “Amen.” If receiving the host by hand, place the left hand over the right (or opposite if you are left handed) and raise your arms slightly. Gum or candy should never be in your mouth when taking the host.

Leaving the church - The final part of Mass is singing a closing hymn. Leaving before the hymn ends is inappropriate. Genuflect toward the tabernacle before leaving the pew or at the end of the pew. Place your worship sheet on the table as you leave.

Thank you for serving and may God keep you in

the palm of His hand.
