May God bless the Workers in the Vineyard, our Priests. The Catechism tells us that we are also a priesthood after a fashion. We must help our priests by being the change we want to see in others. Parish hopping and whining does not help us nor our parish.
In this year of the priesthood, let us help our priests who cannot do it all: we must tuck into the fray and help in ministry to our brothers and sisters. We must honor God with our lives, pray, and practice the virtues. Let us a be a positive influence, not a whinger nor whiner.
That's me away.

Rejoice in hope; endure in affliction; persevere in prayer. Romans 12:12
Prayer joined to sacrifice constitutes the most powerful force in human history.
St. John Paul II
I have a mustard seed; and I am not afraid to use it. (Habeo granum sinapis quod uti non timeo)
Pope Benedict XVI
But I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a direct war, a direct killing, direct murder by the mother herself."
St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Some of the things you talk about are also trouble in many other churches. And there are too many churches who want to entertain rather than teaching.
