@JordanZajacOP He was a legend indeed. I had him for two theology classes at PC. At first I was intimidated, but I grew to love his fatherly presence. He kept his sense of humor and priestly identity in the midst of suffering. May he rest in the peace of Christ.
@crousselle I can relate to this certainly...the joys of parish music. If you want to know what people have deep feelings on in a parish, then try changing the music (especially as the parochial vicar). Conversion is a long road.
We are products of our zeitgeist more than we sometimes understand or admit. The Gospel of Jesus Christ transcends time and place, but Catholics themselves are not immune from the influences of the period in which they are born.

@KatiePrejean A beautiful and essential statement. Sr. Mariae Agnus Dei, S.V. is a witness joy and peace. It doesn't hurt that she is originally from the great state of Maine!
@crousselle Thank you, @crousselle. I am looking forward to it. I hope to see you on your visits to Maine. Please keep me and the parish in your prayers!
At this moment, above all, know that the Lord is with you. We do not know the future, but what we do know is what the Church has always known: God is worthy of our trust. Be strengthened in faith this Holy Week.
