Sister’s name has not been released. Sister was found by the side of the road by a passerby. Please pray for her. Sincerely, Mary Ann
Have mercy on us O Lord! Have Mercy!

It certainly was like a Way of the Cross, yet followed by a resurrection.

When otherwise sane people reject reason, it is very difficult for me to bear. Of course, those who impede the Church in her mission have their own idea of what is “reasonable”….but it is very hard on me, as someone who struggles with a mental illness and who tries with great difficulty to do God’s will from behind the misty curtain of delusion, to see what appears to be a willful and outright rejection of reason. It is painful.

Yes, bizaare things do happen when reason goes out the door…So we seek to stay close to Christ who is the Way, the Truth and the Life and seek to find our JOY and PEACE in HIM!
