Photo snapped upon arrival at church. Torrential rain accompanied by lightning knocked out the power. The traffic lights were out; thankfully, people treated the intersections like 4-way stop signs. |
Upon entering church, I found that we had no lights there either. |

I love this quote. It's the only way to live
ReplyDeleteI love the quote. I almost used it. We have been getting rain, as well. Love it!
ReplyDeleteHow coincidental, the candles give a lovely glow, it must have been a special service. Cheers
ReplyDeleteIt was quite an intimate feeling with only candles providing the light. Father even mentioned it before Mass dismissal. I liked it very much, but in winter, there would be no light coming through the windows as there was on Saturday because the Mass I attend the most is the vigil Mass which begins at
Delete5:30 p.m. And in the winter, it would be dusk at that time.
so true, and comforting. kelley—the road goes ever ever on
