Coming Clean

Foot, Meet Mouth: Priest Edition

So, the other night, I was hanging out with one of our parish priests after a 3 hour Easter Vigil Mass. We started in on the topic of homiletics, and at some point the good priest goes off on a tear about how sometimes the Holy Spirit can just take hold of you and by the end you don’t know what you’ve said.

There’s a reflective, glowy pause, after which I pipe up: “Yeah, and neither does the congregation.”
