Just watched Dave’s beautiful reflection about suffering on YouTube. A few years ago he did a one night mission at Saint Germaine‘s in Bethel Park. When he completed the evening, he asked that we say three Hill holy Queens for his family on a daily basis. I have tried to be as faithful as possible to this commitment ever since that evening. When I’m at mass and I see a parent with a disabled child, I can’t help me think of him in his family. Prayers always to you, Dave and your family. Thank you you’re truly inspiring words. 🌹
