The holy atmosphere of St. Matthew’s becomes truly electrified as ALL the smart phones, iPads, PCs and laptops beep and flicker!

Brilliant…I am thinking it may already be here somewhere 🙂
It is! Just look at the restaurants where they have portable card reader that can take $$$ from our debit or credit cards.
It seems a couple decades ago, I was on top of the technology age and today I am overwhelmed by what is out there…and yes, the portable card readers and Apple-Pay are thing I never saw coming so quickly. 🙂
Wouldn’t surprise me in the least if this isn’t the way sooner rather then later! 🙂
We are half-way there….
quite humor, Perpetua 🙂 🙂
I find this quite concerning, good humoured as it may be! Let us hope that church services do not become so impersonal and distant.
Fear not instead “fear” the Lord. Celebration in Church is based on oral tradition. As to alms giving, it might happen since credit cards and auto debit are now acceptable.
