This evening, friends, a good friend of mine stopped by and dropped off something he had picked up for me.
The author of this pamphlet was a dear man and a truly holy priest. I was blessed to come to know him well in the final year of his life. I had the opportunity to visit him in the hospital every week thanks to the goodness of another priest who has become a dear friend as well. Fr. Buckley inspired me every time I saw him in his final illness. He made me want to love Jesus Christ more and more. He made me desire to suffer for love of Christ. He blessed me on his deathbed and I will never forget that tender moment.
I have been asking Our Lord to direct me toward solid spiritual reading. Perhaps this little booklet is just what I need. I feel like Father sent this to me. And I am overjoyed. I almost shed a tear.
Say a prayer for Father (though I remain convinced he is in heaven with Our Lord and His Blessed Mother).
Holy Mary, Mother of the Saviour, pray for us!
