Thank you, NYer.

I was born in 1959, went through CCD and Catholic High School and attended Mass most of the ensuing years. I had no idea what "Eucharistic Adoration" was until fairly recently.

My kids and I just went yesterday to Adoration and Benediction before Mass (not at our local parish, but at a local hospital where a holy priest has the hospital ministry) and I am so grateful for that opportunity. My kids will not be as ignorant as I was about the Catholic faith, but that is because I have them out of parish CCD and now, out of that parish all together. We all need the help of holy priests in order to raise our kids properly and when you find one, you know it. I thank God for the favor He has shown us. And I thank God for Father Murphy and the many other holy priests out there who are sometimes hidden away.

I thank God for your Father Murphy as well. He was as surely sent to you in an answer to many prayers, as I believe you and your children were sent to him in answer to his prayers.
