I was pleasantly surprised that my mom wanted to go to church this morning. We were both happy that she finally got to see the new priest. He’s young and chanted several parts of the Mass. My mom said his voice was very soothing. I was glad she was able to enjoy and hear much of what was said. He referred to the Gospel and talked about how important and powerful it is for parents/relatives to continually intercede on behalf of their children or loved ones. In another reflection I listened to, the person said act like you’re in a battle – because you are are. We are in a battle for the everlasting souls of our loved ones. And the good news it that Jesus hears us and will answer us.

I Found God today in the new priest.
