Today I brought Communion to the elderly woman who I have been seeing every week. I told her it was St. Patrick’s day. She said she went to St. Patrick’s church a long time ago. I told her I do too and that is where Communion came from. After she received, I showed her some St. Patrick’s day prayers, which she enjoyed and read perfectly. Then she was very chatty. She likes to talk about the farm she grew up on with her family. We found a prayer card and a funeral brochure in one of her books. The leaflet outlined the funeral celebration, which included a couple of country music songs. The woman said she remembered the artists. I asked if she liked country music. She said she did. Then thought about it and responded that she had to because that was the only thing that was played. Then she laughed and laughed. It was a joy visiting with her today.

I Found God visiting with a very chatty woman.
