One of my "cloistered brothers" said something in chapter, today, that really impressed me. We were sitting in a circle with our Dominican Sisters and Father Wayne, expressing what our community meant to us. Boo Boo said that he was sentenced to die in prison. He was a miserable person and didn't care about anything.
Slowly, he got involved with the Catholic activities in the prison. He started to look forward to going to Mass. However, it was when he got involved with Our Lady of Mercy Fraternity, that his attitude was completely changed. He said he looks forward to living. He thanks God every day for his life. He's had so many blessings.
