We haven’t been in person since reopening to protest idiotic mask rules.
Last Fall, our pastor refused to shake my hand when I wore a MAGA shirt to church, so I know where he stands. Other friends wonder how I can keep going, but I like having the moral high ground in this situation. Plus, I was there first, so fuck him.
Yesterday I saw our “leaders” released the ivotecatholic.org website. I know they’re salty that Trump carried the Catholic vote, and I am sure they will guide the discernment process to a false conclusion.
Now I know my mission is to go every week in that shirt to inspire my fellow Pedes in the pews.
I ask you to pray for me, and I’ll be praying for us all!
