Is it appropriate to have those thoughts while taking communion? It's a teaspoon of wine and a little bite of bread, so how many calories can that be? It can't be any more than 10. I suppose I could Google it, but that seems excessive.
For some reason I felt compelled to go to church yesterday. I'm not much for the whole religious thing and I'm doing good if I get there for an actual church service 2 or 3 times a year. I can't even remember the last time I went, but I really wanted to go yesterday.
I have been a member of this church my entire life. Not only were my brother and I raised as part of this church, but so were my mom and her brother.
For the past 8 or so years, the priest has been Father Chris. I adore Father Chris. He's very down to earth, very laid back and not uptight at all (like a lot of Orthodox priests can be).
Well, as church was ending, Father announced that this was to be his last Sunday, because he is being transferred. I was very sad and got a little weepy. It was a little weird, though because down in the fellowship hall after church, I noticed that nobody else seemed too upset by this news. Maybe it was old news to people who attend regularly, or maybe he's really an asshole and I just wasn't around enough to see it.
Or maybe I was the only one with a little crush on him. Forgive me Father for I have sinned, indeed.
