St. Francis further said: "The Devil exults when he can extinguish or impede devotion and joy brought about by pure prayer or other good works in the heart of God's servant. If the Devil takes hold of a servant of God, and if the latter is not wise enough to eliminate this bond as soon as possible by confession, contrition, and satisfaction, it would be very easy for the Devil to take the slightest thing and turn it into an ever heavier burden."

Now I am starting to feel like our Old Mission is truly *OLD* Mission. Fr. Ed, our wonderful Irish priest of more than 12 years being posted here, would go ballistic if he saw something like this!! For that matter, he corrects anyone in town (Catholic or not) if he sees them doing something wrong. Not a bad place to live from what I see in the blogosphere.
