Thankfully I am still employed and working half the time at home and half the time at work. But having to stay home the rest of the time has been interesting for me. I did not fully appreciate how much I love and depend on my parish community for support, love, and so much more.
But even more importantly, we are both still healthy and virus free. I do miss mass, the body and blood of Christ, Father Michael's homilies (and Ken's, too), and our parish community! I am praying for everyone and for your country's health and healing.
Everyone has ideas to keep us from getting bored so I am not going there. But I will challenge you to, at least once a day, clear your mind, turn off the TV, devices, and all distractions (yes, that may mean locking yourself in the bathroom for 5 minutes); and say the Our Father (for the Protestant folks - the Lord's Prayer) specifically for the healing of our world. Then ask God to tell you what He needs of you - then be still and listen for God's answer.
Sending much love and prayers to all. Comment here or on Facebook and tell us all what you heard.
