"Oh Brother, where art thou"

Church sure can bring out the best in a person.

 My mother recently moved in with my sister and I've agreed to take her to Mass on Sundays.  On the first Sunday there was a lady begging for money at the doors of the church. To quote my mom " Oh brother, that is the last thing I want to see at church someone needing help."

2nd Sunday, as we were making our way out of the church,  there was a man in a wheelchair slowing our departure and every maneuver we made to find a path he would go the same way.  When we finally cleared him my mom was quoted as saying " boy, I just wanted to kick him".

I just love Church and the goodness it brings out in all of us!
