Are you wearing your pink today?

You know I am.

What?

It's a Catholic thing. At some point during the Catholic mass you stand and shake ands with your neighbors and say "Peace be with you" and they respond "And also with you"

Not just a Catholic thing. My Lutheran church did this when I was growing up as well.

Noooo!

Now they say "and with your spirit."

They changed all the words!

Tricksy Catholics!

Oops! I meant the Communion wafer is the Catholic thing. At least I think it's only Catholic? I don't think I've ever been to another kind of church

It is. Lutherans have bread, different from a wafer.

Thanks for explaining. Orthodox Jew here. I was thinking it was a Star Wars thing...

Bear with me...

It kind of reminds me of a tradition in our community. Each month a prayer is said on the moon prior to the full moon. After the prayer, each person goes to three others and says שלום עליכם/Shalom Aleikhem/peace be upon you. The response is ועליכם שלום/vealeikhem shalom/and on you peace.

I know it's far FETCHed...

And now we're back on topic.

I grew up in the Methodist church, sometimes we had bread, sometimes a wafer. I went to a local Catholic service and they had bread, they had real wine too. Methodist had grape juice.

Very lapsed ( and OK with it) Catholic here...Yup they certainly have changed some of the words, as noticed by the people sitting next to me at Christmas last year. Which promptly sent my sister and and I a fit of giggles that can ONLY happen in church. Oh the shame...
