It is good to see them. Upon asking them what part of school they like best, it is almost unanimous that they are so happy to see their classmates face to face. As parents you have seen that first hand and you notice the difference in your children when they come home from school. That same things happens for adults. We are hungry for personal interaction. That is where we draw our life-blood. That is one of the reasons that I stress our Commitment to Parish Life. It is the personal encounter with one another that truly supports us in our effort to live the faith we profess. Gathering with like minded individuals enables us to be uplifted. As we are doing this in a building, a church, we become more closely united with those we have longed for and missed in many cases for months. Glad to have you back. Your presence brings our faith community to life.
