Just returned from a “God moment” where Bishop John and myself had the humble privilege of dedicating Fr. Adam’s Divine Mercy Catholic Parish in Las Vegas. Over 400 families from many ethnic groups that include Anglo, Czech, Polish, Italian, Filipino, Japanese, Hawaiian, Chinese came to celebrate and give honor to Jesus and his mother Mary.
To express my gratitude to God, I had the opportunity to photograph the sunrise and valleys in this beautiful southwest. I added some inspiration for your prayerful reflection. Kindly, remember Divine Mercy at your Thanksgiving table for they have suffered abuse by their local clergy. This community is a blessing because this is a sacred home where you will find the heart of Jesus. To Fr. Adam, Cleric Dan, Caryn and all your generous volunteers, May the Mother of God protect you and keep you safe. fr. matt
FYI, I have two websites that you might want to forward to your Facebook Friends.
