[Magdalen] A brighter note?

[ME Michaud]

According to the Bishop's instruction, the priest consecrates at the altar
and then moves up the aisle dropping (not placing) the wafer into our
outstretched hands. It seems to be working fine.

I was surprised by the extreme drama of my emotional reaction when I
received for the first time in over a year. Was driving home, had to pull
over in Kenmore Square. Cried like a three-year-old.

BTW I got an online ad/invitation to an evangelical start-up in the area.
It used "disciple" as a verb.
-M, flabbergasted
