Bob:

You have a good point.  It was a good idea but probably would not work due 
to schedules, those who have to work bi-vocationally, small parish salaries 
and geography.

Well we will have to leave these matters to the bishops and the monasteries 
have always been a good place to go when one is able to attend.  They are 
fairly inexpensive too.

Everyone did seem open to the idea in theory which is a good sign that maybe 
things will work out ok among us.
