Thank You, Fr. Phil

We thought we had the afternoon and evening wired.  Cecil and I planned our outdoor activities as we waited for her to finish her morning meetings and work.
We went out and had the nice afternoon.  But, then she lured us inside and gave us an early dinner.  Then she left us inside and headed to Bellevue for a parish celebration of a remarkable, lovely man. Fr. Phil Wallace was a gracious, quick witted, truly pastoral priest and pastor, she said. The parish prayer service included prayers in seven languages and had closed circuit tv in the parish hall to handle the crowds who didn't  fit in the church. It was an inspiring night, she said. Her young adults served as ushers and she helped them.
