BTW, the priest was also an ex-Air Force military Chaplain.
I learned that recently; he’s our Pastor, and I didn’t know until a few months ago when he joined “Facebook”! He’s still a somewhat young priest, only about mid-to-late 30s, I think. He’s also quite a conservative one! He had led a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, taking a group of local people. I didn’t know he had already arrived back in town! One of the things that was particularly touching, was that he had contacted their guide, who lives in Nazareth. The guy offered to have a mass said for the victim/his family/and the parish in the basilica there!
