The Stranger Traveling With Us

Dear Parishioners,

Could it be that on our way today or tomorrow, the risen Lord might travel with us first as a stranger and then as living Lord? (Luke 24:13-35) Might he come and join us where we are? I think so. In fact, I know so, because he has joined me and you along the road and now nourishes with his very life. We know he travels with us, because we could not have made it this far without his guiding, loving presence. We know he goes with us. May God give us the grace to go with him wherever the road may lead.

- Deacon Robert

wishes in favor of those of other people, so long as it
is not contrary to the will of God, we acquire great
merit.”
