      No problem! 🙃

      And as one of my friends said “Me and my family are non-denominational… which is basically a denomination soooo…. I don’t know.”

      lol yeah 😄

       


      @theducktator

      If you don’t have a denomination, do you still go to church?

      No, we don’t go to church. We fellowship from home. 🙂

        I’m not sure…maybe the Hebrew midwives from Exodus.

        Oooo, nice, that’s a good one

          May I ask why?

            Yep! I, and my church, believe that the saints don’t directly help us, but get help from God to help us! They could answer our prayers by praying for us! Or by help from God help us through a difficult time! Like how one of our traditions is where we pray to St. Anthony to help us find something! He can’t directly help us, but through God’s help he can!

            Hope that helped you understand my denomination a little more!

              Yeah, Anglicanism has been referred to as “Reformed Catholicism”.

              I find this comment really intriguing! Could you explain?

              I think it’s cool how they refused to murder the baby boys and lied to Pharoah to protect them.


              @grcr

              Do you have other believers with you, or is it just you and your family?

              So long, and thanks for all the fish!

                Now I have a question for you!

                If you stay at home for mass, what do you do? How does it work? Who leads the mass? I am so interested!

                  Ohhhh! That makes so much more sense! Since they were never directly given names, I had a harder time remembering them! (I am better at remembering people if I have a name to go along with them!)

                      Interesting! Oh, boy, I love this conversation! Okay, one more question for today then I should hop into bed: If that is the case with saints, why not directly pray to God and give him full credit for the marvelous deeds he can do?

                        Im gonna jump in with the saint answer to add that we ask the saints to intercede for us and pray for us. Such as asking for them to help us with a test or help us to have faith like them. Idk if I made that more confusing though, so I apologize in advance.

                                That is where things get a little confusing. We do pray to God, but you know how we ask others here on earth to pray for us, or a certain person? It is like that, we could just pray directly to God, and not ask for prayers from anyone else, but I think for everyone it is confusing how God sometimes works! (We can, and will never fully understand God and his power!) But it is basically how we ask others to pray for us or a person!

                                And it is also a way of remembering and honoring them too!
