The blog blast continues! August 12's stop was Saint Mary's in Rockville for 5 pm mass. Saint Mary's is kind of a funny shaped church with semi circle seating and plenty of Mary themed stained glass. The mass itself was a strange blend of conservative and casual, but the music and homily suited me pretty well.
The crowd was pretty diverse in both age and ethnicity. As for my Tagalog mass, I missed it because it is the 4th Sunday of every month. (I know I should plan better....next time!)
The best part of the evening was that there was a little boy who brought a Frisbee to church with him. God help me, I wanted something really interesting to happen there, but it didn't. Oh well.
I'm finding myself pretty unsettled or annoyed or something lately and more surprisingly finding myself trying to settle when I go to church. Could it be that I have been something good?
In case you are in a classic fiction book club, you should stop by Saint Mary's, it's the resting place for Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Still to come...
Saint Bernadette's (Holy Days put me on track for 52 churches!)
Christ the King (can I coin the word Episcoatholic?)
