n October 27, 2002, Catholics For Positive Change began holding Sunday Services Mass at the Courtyard Marriott in Worcester MA for Catholics who felt uncomfortable in a parish setting, and for any other persons of good will looking for people with whom they could be accepted for wherever they were in their spiritual journey. We tell those who visit us that they're welcome, and that all we ask of them is to give Respect to others for where they're at. No membership is required. Everyone is treated equally well if it's their first Sunday or they've been with us for over a year no cliques. You can visit us almost any Sunday other than four holiday weekends at 10 AM at the Courtyard Marriott hotel, 72 Grove St., in downtown Worcester. Take anything we offer that you can use, and leave the rest. One of our tag lines is "Traditional Spirituality with No Judgment, No Guilt, No Pressure, No Hype." We're inclusive in every sense of the word. You can telephone us at 1-or 1-508-476-2997 any day between Noon and 10 pm. Father Kerrigan or Rev. Kerrigan if you're not Catholic will be pleased to talk with you. If you get a recording, please leave a message, as he may be on the other line, and could call you back fairly soon. Our web site gives a much more complete reason for our existence. There are no stupid questions, so please ask. We welcome hearing from you. Really!
