			<title><![CDATA[ Hello Out There ]]></title>
			<link>http://mcya.yuku.com/topic/702/t/Hello-Out-There.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ There appear to be a lot of people visiting the board.  Its kind of been abandoned, because there were only a couple of us still on the board.  Discussion can
get a bit boring when there are only two people on a board.  If more people would like to participate, we&#39;d be interested in getting things started again .
 If you&#39;d like to start the discussions up again, please either post here, reply to a previous discussion or start your own.

			<description><![CDATA[ I know its a little late, but, since we are currently in the Easter season, I figured I&#39;d still ask.  What part(s) of the Easter Tridium do you participate
in?
<br>
<br>
I have never participated in Holy Thursday, but this year I did.  It was interesting, but I didn&#39;t find it to be very unique, compared to a regular Mass.
<br>
<br>
Good Friday has always been important to me.  I think the importance came from my father, who, although we didn&#39;t go to Sunday Mass, always tried to... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I recently watched <a title="Facing the Giants" target="_blank" href="http://www.facingthegiants.com/">Facing the Giants</a>.  I thought it was a good movie,
but it was a bit over the top in its Christian references to the point of almost being cheesy. I can&#39;t think of a particular instance that put it over the
top, just a combination of all of the little things.  It may have been due to the fact that it was more of a Protestant type of Christianity than Catholicism. 
i know that sounds... ]]></description>

sacrifices we made to Lent and, where applicable, continue them after Easter.

			<description><![CDATA[ For Lent, I&#39;ve been using &quot;The Little Black Book&quot; for daily reflection.  It is a little book created by the <a title="Diocese of Saginaw" target="_blank" href="http://saginaw.org/">Diocese of Saginaw</a> that has a six minute reflection for every day of Lent.  One page is a related random
fact and the other is a reflection on the verses of the day, which is the Passion according to John.  Yesterday&#39;s verses were John 18:39-40.  These are the

up&quot;.  My current tooth past even has it in big, bold, red, all capped print.  So,  does that mean that if I squeeze the tube from the middle my teeth
aren&#39;t going to get as clean?

wanted to get rid of the ads.  Below is the cost.  They are still working on the way in which people will be able to contribute to paying for the board.  Until
they figure that out, I&#39;ll leave off the link to contribute to the board.

			<link>http://mcya.yuku.com/topic/691/t/Assumptions-About-Our-Faith.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Growing up, my family went from attending Mass periodically to only going on Christmas and Easter.  At some point, we even stopped going on Christmas and
Easter.  My dad, however, has always placed an importance on going to church on Good Friday.  That is the day that my dad fought the longest for to try to keep
my brothers attending.  Because of the emphasis my dad placed on Good Friday, up until five years ago I thought it was a Holy Day of Obligation.

In the past few days, I... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Do you prefer to go to confess behind a barrier or face to face?
<br>
<br>
I grew up going to Catholic schools and every Lent and Advent we&#39;d have a communal Reconciliation service.  It was the standard service where you have the
usual priest(s) and several from the surrounding area.  I&#39;ve only gone to the &quot;box&quot; style confession a handful of times.
<br>
<br>
Regardless of the style, I prefer anonymity.  For the communal services, I go to a priest that I don&#39;t know.... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Tonight, I was worried about going to Mass by myself.  I&#39;ve gotten so used to having Nathan with me at Mass and knew it would be weird not having him
there, especially since its Christmas Mass.  Driving home from Mass, I got the inspiration for this topic.  What are your &quot;Obvious Tips on Life&quot;? 
Those things that make perfect sense, but that you don&#39;t always think of or do?
<br>

Tip # 1 - If you don&#39;t want to go to Mass alone, don&#39;t sit alone.

			<link>http://mcya.yuku.com/topic/686/t/Breast-Feeding.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I was recently at a brunch.  After most people were done eating, one woman started to breast feed her child.  I don&#39;t have a problem with women that breast
feed in public, as long as they are modest about it.  In my opinion, this woman crossed the line.  When most women breast feed in public, you typically only
get a glimpse of their breast in the beginning and end.  She, however, did not try to cover herself while the child was feeding.  She was fully exposed the
whole time.

			<description><![CDATA[ I was recently having a conversation with someone about fasting.  We were specifically talking about the changes in fasting &quot;regulations&quot; for Fridays
and before Communion.  It used to be that you couldn&#39;t eat meat any Friday, hence the Friday Fish Fry tradition.  Then it changed to only having to fast
from meat on Fridays during Lent.  We also don&#39;t understand how fasting from meat made it okay to gorge yourself on fish.

<br>
We were also confused about the fasting... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The past few years, I&#39;ve had difficulty getting into the Christmas spirit.  I helped Nathan set up his tree tonight and will probably set up mine tomorrow.
 The only time I&#39;ve purposely listening to Christmas music is while setting up the tree.  Otherwise, I&#39;ve switched the radio station when ever its come
on.  What do you do to get into the Christmas spirit?
