I think it would be very beneficial to the Giants community for a Church or even small chapel to be built near the stadium as a place of quiet thinking and meditation before or after a game. As a baseball fanatic and practicing Catholic, I love the idea of embracing Christ as a tie to baseball because it is very important to the players and spectators at many of the games. Finally, what percentage of professional baseball players are practicing Catholics or would at least accept the idea of a church or temple or mosque built in the vicinity of a ballpark?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263387667307930697.post-25619413663747008682019-11-03T22:21:54.738-08:002019-11-03T22:21:54.738-08:00I really appreciate the idea of #NatsMass because ...I really appreciate the idea of #NatsMass because my favorite part of going to church is the community I feel whenever I am there. The fact that this church was able to harness its location to bring people together is amazing, and it really embodies embracing Christ in everything we do, even watching baseball! I was wondering, do some of the baseball players ever come to mass?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14446026044490496316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1263387667307930697.post-11654989079487361772019-10-24T09:03:50.934-07:002019-10-24T09:03:50.934-07:00This reminds me of the parish in Chewelah, WA, (St...This reminds me of the parish in Chewelah, WA, (St. Mary's) that offered apres-ski mass! :) Get your morning runs in on Saturday or Sunday and hit an afternoon mass on the way home. We thought that was an awesome way to meet us as well. Much love, Anne - MissyStalp Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17345768466043305179noreply@blogger.com
