Did You Know?

Al writes, “You did the funeral of a
friend of mine last Saturday. THANKS!
You captured Ernie perfectly in your
homily. It was a terrific job.”
“You’re welcome.”

In a recent national poll, Catholics said the quality of
the homily is the main reason why they choose the Mass
they go to. Eighty-seven percent said the homily is
number one.

Tom says, “Tell the Cub Scouts they are great salesmen. I
was not planning on buying any popcorn after mass, but
they talked me into it.”
“Me too. I bought $40 worth.”
Fr. Mike
