Thanks

My wife and I have been active members since 2003. Presently, I am serving as an EM at 4:30p mass. I was unable to attend the informative meeting you held so I am not certain what is all involved in the transformation our worship sanctuary, so I will just talk about what I would like to see different:
I mean no ill well with the family that donated the two pictures of St Elizabeth Seton as the family is so well liked, but I think those two pictures would better be placed in the Vestibule. In their place I would like to see very nice religious figures or pictures like of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and or Immaculate Heart of Mary. Again, I mean no ill well, but they look like they don’t belong to me.
I am not sure how to accomplish my next concern, but I feel we should make more room in back of the pews for the handicap. We live in an adult community and more and more of our Parish is becoming older and more difficult to walk very far. I think it would be so much easier for them to be able to sit in the back. They would need more room between pews.
Next is the Choir area. We have no need for the organ – get rid of it. A better organization of the Choir area is much overdue. The back row should be higher than the front. It is nice to see so many more bodies in the Choir, but it seems that they are climbing over each other. Very distracting.
Another thought. My wife likes to pray to the Infant of Prague, but it is placed way too high for her to touch or make eye contact.
Thanks for listening. If none of my thoughts are accepted, I still love this parish. It is home to me.
