Hi there, everyone! It’s “the boss,” Angel, here again. My dad asked me to write a column again as this week on Monday (Halloween) marks 3 years since I hopped up on my dad’s lap at the rescue agency & told him to pick me. And boy am I glad he did. I am so, so happy to be here with all of you! I hope you are doing well! Here we are, right at the cusp of November. I know that my dad loves November because his birthday is in it, but I dread those months where my bathroom gets covered in snow!
The beginning of October found me gathering with 200+ brother Priests of the Diocese out in Huron at Sawmill Creek Resort for our biannual Priests’ Convocation. I remember when I was in the seminary that the week of the Priests’ Convocation was somewhat a week of vacation with all of our Priest professors being away.
One of the great forms of prayer in our Church is intercessory prayer. So many of us have people & causes that we pray for on a regular, sometimes even daily basis. We pray for people who are sick, people who have died, we pray for peace, we pray for the unemployed, just to name a few. There are many ways and forms that we could ask our Lord’s intercession, one of those ways that we are very familiar with is through the offering of Masses.
