Costumes at Mass?

I figured I’d see someone come to Mass in a costume today…
One lady had her baby dressed up in a nurse outfit, complete with the red cross on the bonnet. At least it wasn’t Baby Frankenstein or The WereBaby or a baby with a First Lady Therese Heinz-Kerry costume on (scary!)
On All Saints, kids are encouraged to come dressed as their favorite Saint. Eric, maybe you can dress Charlie up as St. Lawrence and hand him one of your All-Clad griddle pans…

  1. Charlie is dressing as St. Charles Borromeo (his patron) for All Saints’ Day tomorrow. And our griddle is Calphalon commercial — I don’t own any All-Clad, as I think they’re a little too pricey.

  2. On my last day of work, we all went to a German restaurant, and I was lighting people’s cigarettes with a creme brulee torch. Now that was a nice culinary conversation piece….

  4. As I was away on Sunday October 24 (attended a nice Mass in the Diocese of Charleston, SC) my husband had to take my kids to our local Arch of Boston parish (where we don’t go anymore unless we have severe time constraints) and the Pastoral Associate nun got up at the end of the Mass and told the Mass goers that the kids could where costumes to Mass on Halloween — “they can dress up as a mythical creature or their favorite saint’ — as my daughter noted, the mention of saints came second and after CCD at our parish, the kids don’t know who the saints are anyway.
    Didn’t go there yesterday so I don’t know how the ‘event’ turned out.
