She was so out raged she said she had to control herself to keep from killing one of the altar girls! Cheez-nips instead of hosts!?!? Altar girls wearing togas!?!? Shouting hooray for Jesus because He's your savior!!?? A priest who was discovered to be going out with one of the women parishoners!?!? I guess this is your expression :shocked: or :barf: or :cussing: or :really-mad2: Also at a N.O. church across the street from where I used to live used to have clown masses, ballerina masses, and teddy bear masses just to name a few! Im not joking!

The good news is that the communion hosts were cheez-nips -so thank goodness there was no sacrilege committed against the Body of Christ since the communion hosts were not validly consecrated because the wrong ingredients were used.
