"I recently had the honor of returning to my first parish, St. John Neumann (VA), where I was ordained and served as a deacon 10 years ago. This parish will always hold a special place in my heart because it was my introduction to ordained life and ministry. . . . I returned because Fr. Joe Brennan, OSFS, asked me to come and preach the Lenten mission. I looked forward to this visit for months.
"As part of the mission, I was able to celebrate the Sunday Masses. I saw many old friends, but one sticks out in particular. After one of the Masses, I recognized the mother of the first child I ever baptized. . . ."In a recent commentary, Father Joe Newman, OSFS, reflected on God's love for us and some of what this means.
