I'm surprised that attendance to our Sunday church outings hasn't increased at all recently. As Christmas approaches, I'm always more inspired than ever to worship. And that aside, we've been getting so much upsetting news about the war lately that even the generally non-religious might be inspired to attend. If anybody is hesitating to join us,

I hope you enjoy returning home, then.

[..... :C]

[dofaye]

You make it sound so definite. We're old enough to apparate now, so I'm sure we'll be seeing plenty of each other.

[princeblanc]

I suppose you're right.

[dofaye]

Speaking of which, where do you plan to stay for the holiday? Marsailles as usual?

[hechizar]

...Goodness, I've almost forgot going to mass!! So busy with teaching and all that...

[dofaye]

You're free to join our little group if you'd like, Professor.

[hechizar]

I think I might!! Advent's already started after all.

[dofaye]

It's the perfect time! Your family is Catholic as well?

[mist_illusions]

You're surprised that people don't want empty comfort from religion? You're right, you really shouldn't be.

[dofaye]

Excuse me? That was rather unnecessary.

[mist_illusions]

Oh, was it? Then I apologize. I was just trying to help you understand why people might not be interested in attending church.

[dofaye]

Referring to it as "empty comfort" is quite a bold statement.

[magyar_nation]

Mass is a huge comfort to me, even though I miss hearing it in Hungarian.

[dofaye]

I've not been to a Hungarian Mass, but I'm sure they're beautiful. Of course, I do look forward to being able to attend a Christmas service in France.

[princetype_suou]

I'll go with you!

[dofaye]

You're Catholic, Mr. Suou?

[princetype_suou]

I was raised that way when I lived in France. I still attend Church on the holidays.

[dofaye]

I'd never have guessed. You're welcome to join us, of course.
