All a man needs is a KJV and the ability to go on and on for 45 minutes :) <BR/><BR/>I think I'm one of the few who didn't find the Easter Vigil too long. Three hours was a normal Sunday morning for me growing up :)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070920215647366613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2312222472717527597.post-18626641631163486502007-04-16T09:30:00.000-04:002007-04-16T09:30:00.000-04:00I would be lying if I said that this "instant ordi...I would be lying if I said that this "instant ordination thing" didn't sound somewhat tempting for several of us as we prepared for comps! <BR/><BR/>Fr.

And I got a impish thought, "wouldn't it be funny if I signed up for one of these things?"<BR/><BR/>About 10 seconds later, I thought, "yeah, and it'd be an impediment to orders!" <BR/><BR/>That, on top of the fact that I'd received a dispensation already for an impediment (I joined a Protestant church in college), I didn't think the Holy See would be amused.Fr Martin Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01375628123126091747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2312222472717527597.post-79815120069049913102007-04-14T17:22:00.000-04:002007-04-14T17:22:00.000-04:00At least I only 'wasted 7 years' in seminary, but ...At least I only 'wasted 7 years' in seminary, but I bet both of us know that anything worth doing is worthy doing well, even if it takes time.
