[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 328396, member: 9789"] I had the same experience as you - 12 years of Catholic school - When my kids were little, we put them in Catholic school - one of my sons did not do well with the nuns and one of the nuns went way beyond hiting the hands or a spank on the butt.... the problem we had was she denied it and the principal stuck up for her. We pulled the kids out and put them in a Christian school with teachers who were also mothers and provided a loving atmosphere.....never had another problem! Needless to say we stopped supporting our church. Now that we are in Sedona, we started going again (not all the time). The church was built to take in the majesty of the red rocks and it is less than 5 minutes from our house. It is the pastor that makes the church! There is a positive energy within the the fellowship. About 1/3 of the church is filled with vacationers every Sunday. Very relaxed atmosphere. You can wear shorts and sandals and the pastor keeps the mass to 30-35 minutes! ....and they don't bug us for money-money-money - which makes it easier to give and to be there! The priest asks were everybody is from before mass. It is a nice way to come together! [/QUOTE]
