I think that priest needs our prayers more than you do, actually. God knows your heart, brother, and He knows that you would have been just fine with those kids. It's just too bad that there is such hysteria over all this stuff nowadays. Your own father is spreading rumors about you? I can identify with THAT kind of situation for sure.

God help us with all of our family and friends who don't understand us and don't seem to care what thier words can do to us. I believe God is in our corner. You are certainly in my prayers.

With Love,
Chris
