Recently I have not only seen an accident involving two cars right in front of me (at the entrance to WalMart on Highway 7), but I have also been involved in a car accident off Interstate 30 where I was hit from behind. Given these experiences, I have found myself more attentive to the drivers and driving conditions around me.. We all want to drive in safety, no matter where we are going.
The decision to move the Saturday 5:00 p.m. Mass to 4:00 p.m. starting November 5, creates during the winter months, a safer setting for our parishioners to drive to and back home from church. I pray that those who had strong feelings about leaving Mass at 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays, will come to accept this change for the safety of some of their fellow parishioners and others on the roadway. We will do another survey about moving the Mass back to 5:00 p.m. when daylight savings approaches in March.
