There probably was a good reason, way back when, that our Mattins service was scheduled for 11:15 AM. But we’re considering a change—a mere 15 minute change—to 11:00 AM.
It’s common knowledge that the food at Sunday brunches rapidly becomes inedible after about 12:30 PM. Perhaps an earlier start will make it possible for worshipers to get to brunch before the fried eggs turn to frisbees and the bacon to shoe leather.
Not only that, but early arrivers for the 11:00 AM service just might run into some of the mysterious “early risers” that have worshiped at 9:15AM.
Please make your thoughts, either pro or con, known to Fr Guy or Fr Mike.
