This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Racism in church today
Colleen just returned from attending mass with our three children at Santa Fe's beautiful Catholic church in the heart of town. At the end of the service, people raise their hands in unified support of the person who will be visiting shut-ins. An Hispanic woman usher came over to our tall son and told him his salute looked like a KKK salute. Colleen grabbed the woman by her arm and said quietly, "Let's go outside!" She took the woman to the back of the church and asked her to repeat what she said so the other two ushers could hear her words. Colleen remains outraged and intends to take up this matter with the Archbishop.
