Kicking Out the Kids for Not Singing

This priest tossed the kids out of Mass for failing to sing. A better idea might be to inspire – not hector – them to sing liturgical appropriate music. The article doesn’t say what precisely they were being asked to sing, but I think I can guess.

  1. Interesting take on things. My question is what is the school doing to promote this singing at Mass? I work with my students every week on Liturgical music, both praise and worship music and chant. I am the music teacher. Their classroom religion teachers give them a grade for conduct during Mass AND a participation grade for singing and responding at Mass. "It takes a village…." Another point is to ask if the teachers and/or principal are also singing with gusto at Mass? If not, then the adults need to lead. 'Nuf said.
