Visit from Father Patrick






We got a nice surprise this week when we got a call from Chad's good friend and Jack's godfather, Father Patrick. He was passing through on his way back to Corpus Christi from Colorado. He blessed us and our home by doing a home Mass in our new house. The kids enjoyed this special Mass and participated by doing the readings and helping as altar servers. They also enjoyed having a homily just for them...very kid and family friendly. Of course, "Wild Thang" was running around playing trains and jumping on the couch...but he did get on his knees to kneel and pray for about 10 seconds! Father Patrick is always so good with the kids...joking with them and making them laugh. But, he is also very caring and wise! He has been a great friend to Chad over the years. Too bad it was such a short visit. We hope to see him again soon!
