As a military child, I was always intrigued by the Catholic faith. Every Sunday I would watch the Catholic families pile into…

The term liturgy is derived from the ancient Greek word 'letourgia', meaning public work (Senn, 2012). The practise of communal celebration is one which occurs throughout the religions. Despite superficial similarities between the practises, each faith…

Everything felt foreign to me; from the way the building was set up, to the way people behaved during the service, to the way everyone exited the church. As an outsider, I felt lost and almost lonely as the masses around me moved in…
