How blessed are we to have met so many good, generous, priests these past months! The Shrine isn’t the easiest place to get to and we won’t even mention the parking situation, but this welcoming community and this beautiful setting compensate for gridlock and orange cones. Over the next weeks and months, we hope to provide a snapshot of the priests we see regularly.
