If your chapel is isolated from parish activity, you may want to consider security measures of some sort to mitigate the risk of an unsavory person having extended solitary access.

For example, at Atlanta's Shrine of the Immaculate Conception by the Capitol, in the past it has locked its doors except during Masses because homeless people might come in and sleep in the pews. Even in ritzy Buckhead, I noticed one time at Evensong at the Episcopal Cathedral of St. Philip one of those circular-looking cameras above the bishop's throne---who knows, someone might try to steal the altar candles or hymnals in the pews. And a few years ago at your Cathedral of St. John the Bapitst, someone set the pulpit on fire. I have never been to your parish but I get the feeling it is in a pretty safe suburban area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7846189835239594160.post-16744389313854142532017-08-14T12:25:52.181-04:002017-08-14T12:25:52.181-04:00????Are you commenting on the wrong post?????????Are you commenting on the wrong post?????Fr.
