A Blessing

Friends, this evening, while on vacation at a beach on the Eastern Seaboard, a friend invited me to visit a friend of his a few miles further along the beach. We got in the car and drove. We drove until the pavement ended. We drove onto the sand in a 4 wheel drive only area. Fortunately our vehicle has 4 wheel drive. We arrived at a beautiful house. We weren’t sure if it was the right house. I walked up the steps and peered through the glass.

“There’s a high altar up against the wall! This is clearly the place!” I said.

And it was.

And not only did I get to fraternize with like minded Catholics, I met him. He is one of the cancelled priests of the past few years. I have seen his videos and read his words. Tonight I shook his hand (kissed his hand because he’s a priest). And then I talked with him for two hours and I realized that he is the real deal.

I will leave out the details of our conversation but I will tell you that at the end of the night, I took my leave and asked him for his blessing.

I kneeled before him as he blessed me through the intercession of St, Rita.

Pray for our priests. Pray especially for him. Pray for the cancelled priests.

My evening was great.

God be praised!

St. Joseph, pray for us!
