Esther,
I enjoyed reading your house blessing story. We have had both the houses we have lived blessed.
Although my parents were strong cradle Catholics, I don't ever recall having our house blessed. I do remember my mom using holy water and lighting votive candles at times - while we prayed the rosary as a family and during storms. We also had a holy water font. My husband's mom sprinkled blessed salt around the house when there was a bad storm.
I was surprised that more haven't had their houses blessed. I wonder why that is?
I cleaned my house thoroughly before our priest came over to bless it. I actually had two priests offer to bless it. In addition to having our house blessed, both my husband and I have had our cars blessed. I wonder how many people have had that done? That would make an interesting question for your poll, too.
That is interesting Jean. I wonder why that was? We have blessed salt at home but rarely use it. I sometimes I use it for cooking. My mom does that too especially, if she is not certain on the freshness of the meat. ha ha.
