I went to my most un-favorite places to go this morning – the dentist. It was just for a cleaning, but still. I chatted with the hygienist a bit before we started. She asked if I was doing anything special for the rest of the day. I told her I would be volunteering at the Newman Center. She told me that she raised her sons in the Catholic Church located downtown. She said one son goes there occasionally and sometimes he goes to Mass at the Newman Center on Sunday afternoons. She went on to tell me that one of his friends entered the seminary. It’s amazing the stories people will tell me when I open up about my faith. Also, I was grateful that the cleaning was quick and painless.

I Found God today in shared faith stories.
