Our parish just hosted a young vibrant priest from Uganda as a part of his mission to raise awareness (and maybe a little money) of Christianity in Africa. When speaking with our teens, he remarked: “First of all, you live in paradise”. He went on to describe the fact that clean water was a 5 km walk for him in his village. Needless to say, I wish I could have gotten him to speak to the NFL and let these spoiled players place their passion in a cause where it would make a difference to people that are truly in need. Let’s start with water....
“First of all, you live in paradise”
Yes.
People can’t even see it and live to be unhappy and angry.
