I Was Surrounded With Guys

Yesterday, Wednesday, I attended the mass for Mother of Perpetual Help at the Redemptorist Church. I went inside the church ten minutes before it started. The number of people who attended the mass was so huge but it didn’t bother me. What caught my attention was the number of male churchgoers, some of them were for sure devotees. it was surprising to see many men inside the church. There were around ten gentlemen to my front - an arthritic septuagenarian, a bespectacled man in his 40’s, a retiree accompanied with his wife, three yuppies in their office uniform, a student, and men who i presumed to be all married but not accompanied by their respective wives. Sitted to my left were two guys, but they came in separately, and to my right was another gentleman whow was with his mother. I have seen a lot more gentlemen during the communion. it made me wonder how come there are more gentlemen going to church on a Wednesday than on Sundays.
