Day 30: Rehab, orphanage, and out of here
This morning we had a early breakfast as a treat of the parish. We went to a nice hotel and I actually had scrambled eggs.
After a short interlude with my family, it was off to the drug rehab, Vida Nueva, where I did a liturgy of the word service. I preached on the day’s scripture reading where Jesus had to suffer and explained that this is part of the human condition. I left them in group discussions to go to the orphanage.
We met Fr. Joe at the orphanage where I helped at Mass for the orphans. I hope my lips are okay after all the kisses. We toured their facility, had cake and a drink and were then off to lunch.
Again, the staff treated us to a nice lunch. We are now packing our suitcases for the long trip home.
What a month! Would I do it again? You bet! But, my wife will have her input.
Peace!
