Last Sunday 5 minutes before Mass our PP had not turned up so I looked out the back room door & there he was sitting in the cold outside the presbytery 75 metres away. Next minute a car arrived & drove him across to the rear of the church. He got out of the car but would not come inside. He asked for the other acolyte to come out. I was all dressed in my white dress to serve at the Mass.

The other chap came back in went up on the altar & announced that there would be no mass as the PP was ill. The car strarted & he was driven back over to the presbytery.

Everyone had to go straight home as the church would be closed & locked.

I live for those that love me
For those that know I am true
For the heaven that smiles above me
& awaits my coming too
For the cause that needs assistance
For the wrong that needs resistance
For the future in the distance
& the good that I can do.
