Later Saturday evening Masses better for farmers

On April 1, 2010
Elmer Heldstell, Brodhead

To the editor:

I appreciated the Rural Life series very much. If the diocese wanted to help farm families, please bring back the later Saturday evening Mass.

This worked great to go to Mass after the milking is done and the family is showered. When families have to go to Mass in shifts, it causes undue hardship on families.

Elmer Heldstell, Brodhead
