    Catholic Church view on other religions Although the Catholic Church has a hard-nosed view of its faith compared to others‚ they do accept some non-Catholic religions as “almost right” and overall good.

The church building was like a large hall with comfortable chairs set out in a carpeted area facing a raised platform with two levels. My tour guide was the deacon of the church (Byron). He explained that their Sunday worship services begin at 10.30 am and 6.30 pm and typically last just over an hour. As you enter‚ you should be welcomed by a steward and be given a copy of the weekly notice sheet

Let’s just get anybody.” You don’t want to get just anybody‚ because you don’t want an anybody offering. You have been selected as an usher; you are in the ministry of
