Polka Mass



My mother informed me of a new trend at Catholic churches in Minnesota -- the Polka Mass. When my mother first described it, I envisioned people dancing in the aisles. I asked her if a date was needed to go to church, or if you just grabbed a partner. Amused by my ignorance, my mother said that people were NOT dancing in the aisles. They just had a live band playing polka music instead of the traditional church hymns.

The kicker for me having my uber Catholic mother tell me she received communion to the polka band playing "Roll Out the Barrel."

Now that's a church service I would like to attend.
