Crossed The Tiber

An Evangelical Converts to Catholicism

My Photo
Name:
Location: Pennsylvania, United States

I was born into the Catholic faith. At 14, I was "born again" and found Jesus personally but lost His Church. After thirty years as an evangelical protestant, I have come full circle to find that He has been there all the time, in the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. I wish others to find the beauty and truth of the Catholic faith as I have found.

HA HA!! That was great! I'm not sure that even King David himself busted such great moves (while singing) when he danced in front of the Ark! Who would have thunk it?

I went to a church that regularly had
worship expressed in dance. I recognized some of the dance moves!

I played this song many times in folk Mass in 8th grade when I was a young Catholic, a year away from leaving the Church. I still remember the chords in my head 35 years later

Hey now. All you need do is put conga drums in front of him and you have a fair version of me playing in a Christian coffee house.

OK, dance is not appropriate for the liturgy of the Mass, but by golly, if you want to entertain yourself by dancing and singing, why not dance and sing God's praise while you're at it?

(buduh ba dum bum bum) N A 1, N A 2, N I C, God's 4 U; the charismatic polka!

Isn't there a polka mass at MFEST every year? (Despite the fact that Church canon law forbids it?)

A polka Mass, for real? I had no idea. I suppose cannon law forbids polka dancing in the Mass as opposed to polka music in general. I find it hard to imagine what an Offertory Polka would sound like, though I imagine you could compose one that is less offensive to the ear than the sloppy-agape "hymn", "Then comes the morning." :-)

___ Roll out the monstrance,
___ The devil we got on the run.
___ Serve God while constant-,
___ ly praising the gift of the Son.


On second thought, never mind.
