The Holiness Around Us

Image
 Holy Images I want to share holy moments I have seen at Mass. Greeters going beyond the usual “Hello” to check in with parishioners. One parishioner always looks for new faces and introduces herself to them and makes sure they feel welcomed. A wife puts her arm around her husband who has been chronically ill over the past several months. People getting out of their pew to extend the Sign of Peace to particular persons. A woman who looks at the Body of Christ with a warm smile that conveys she is holding the Real Presence of Jesus. During the communion procession, a parishioner with care touches the shoulders of a couple as she passes them. Parents assisting and holding the children of other parents during Mass. Servers who go to their family members to extend the Sign of Peace. I am sure there are many other moments. These moments help me see Christ active and alive in our community and touch my heart. Thank you, holy people!
