""For most of us, it takes a life of encountering our own sinfulness, God's forgiveness and the presence of the community that brings us to a place where we begin to understand the deep truth of the words that were given to us at a young age.""

Boy, ain't that the truth! Excellent post. Thank-you.

Sending this to my priest. I know he will love it since he was one of those who entered the priesthood later in life after holding a job in the secular world.

AHH BUT IT IS SO TRUE FOR US SINGLE CHASTE FOR LIFE CATHOLICS TOO.


THESE YEARS ARE THE BEST AND WE RELIZE OUR SERVICE HAS JUST BEGUN.

HAVING 3 GENERATIONS OF LABRADORS IS A FINE THING. THERE IS SOOO MANY NEEDS OUTSIDE FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT CHOOSE MARRAIGE AND FAMILY.

GOD IS GOOD.
