“Keep ranting Father Z!”

From a reader…

On the First Friday in August, my godson and I went to confession. We then went camping for a week.

We found a lovely church to attend Mass on Sunday. Thursday we came home.

Friday my beloved 43 year old godson dropped dead. There was no possibility for last rites.

I was with him 24 hours a day from our confessions until his death and believe, as much as anyone can know, that he was still in a state of grace when he died.

For that mercy, I am exceedingly grateful.

Keep ranting Father Z!

We never know.

We simply don’t know.

It could be unforeseen.  It could be soon.

Say it with me?

GO TO CONFESSION!

    Wow, it’s true you just never know! Prayers for that man, and his godson’s soul and friends and family. I can’t imagine. Keep ranting, Fr. Z. p.s. I will pray for those intentions in my rosary and at mass this morning.
