HOW DO WE APPLY CARDINAL ARINZE'S RECOMMENDATIONS TO OUR PARISHES IN GUAM

(posted by Frenchie)



Several things always surprise outsiders when they go to worship in a Catholic Church on Guam.

The pleasant ones are, that overall the services are well attended, and they are represented by multi generational  attendees. (it is not unusual to see four generations on the same pew). Men in general are more numerous in our churches than on those of the mainland or in Europe. This is a very heartening situation, in view of the very aggressive anti-male and anti-father movement which characterize our modernist society.
On Guam, many fathers attend Church with their families, and for the most part children are fairly well behave.
