Wisdom from Father Miguel Pro

I bless God for having conferred upon me the great dignity of being a priest. What wonderful happiness one finds in bringing peace to a troubled workman’s family! What joy in taking Holy Communion to a youngster of ninety-four! What pleasure in sitting under a tree and hearing the confession of an easy-living gardener or of teaching the basic points of catechism to a Communist while kicking the shavings and sawdust of his workshop!
