The funniest thing I heard today was at church.
I love going to church at St. Francis Cabrini because not only is it a smaller church, but the priest is always straight and to the point with lots of humor. Father Frank is your typical old school Italian who loves his pasta (and food in general). Today he explained that the other night he sat down in front of the TV with a big bowl of spaghetti watching the news about all the turmoil in Libya. The news was reporting on the bombings and the innocent lives who are in danger and just all this violence on that side of the world.
Then he said: “No matter what goes on in this world, us Catholics have to eat!”
As for someone who likes to eat, it sure made me laugh!! Then he went on to explain that as Catholics, we can do that because we have such strong faith in God. We have full trust in him to take care of us that we can sit down and eat, and not be in constant worry about everything that goes on around us.
Pretty deep stuff.
