Christmas Eve

Christmas "Midnight" (9p) and morning children's mass are my faves.

Of course. Every Sunday (Saturday afternoon)
But, the Church needs more talented priests. Lots of dead weight.
Folks (especially the young ones) need to be inspired and moved by the message.
Our Pastor came from USC Catholic Center. Vibrant guy. Energy matters.

Sounds like the young folks are the dead weight.
If you need a priest to inspire you, your focus is in the wrong place.
Wrong. Your Catholic Taliban doesn’t draw new parishioners.
Mass needs to be more meaningful.
Know your audience.
Absolutely true...for a long time in our parish, the Pastor related the readings to modern day life,
and no joke, his Sunday evening Mass was Standing Room Only. Years later, when he passed away there were a couple of thousand in attendance at his Memorial Celebration. He had an uncanny ability to remember virtually everyone's name and greeted them warmly...sometimes with a friendly 'punch' in the shoulder...Never any 'Pontifications' in his homilies.
The churches I go to have been packed for advent and Christmas.
Young and old. They understand the importance of The Eucharist.
many.
