>“Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.”<

.
And what should our reaction be when tears, a broken heart and a cry for help do not seem to have an affect on God?
Wish I had this priest’s faith in God and his conviction in God’s nearness.

I’m sure the priest feels very proud as a very good person, placing himself between the believer and God. /s

Great story. Thanks. “I started to head back to the seminary...” I was praying with a family member last week and mentioned how Mary appeared to a priest in France in 710 and told him to say a mass. When the priest said, I don’t have a chasuble, Mary gave him one. It is still in the church. My family member smiled and said, “Jesus and Mary seem to know what we need at all times.” Probably true.

I take my kids in to Catholic school every morning and because I was already at the church, I started going to the 9:00 Mas every morning.

Then I found out that there was a whole community of people who attended that Mass and now no day is satisfactory without that part of the day and that connection to Our Lord, his priest, and his people.

I highly recommend it for all of you!
