chilly morning mass
votive candles warm the air
lifting hail marys 🦊❤️
When I walked outside in the early morning darkness and saw some stained glass windows illuminated at Chestnut Hill College I stood and thought about serving early morning Mass during the week when I was in grade school. When I would walk into the chilly church in the morning, a couple of old Italian ladies would already be there praying the Rosary. As I walked past the bank of burning votive candles, I could feel the air was much warmer and filled with the smell of burning wax. As the warm air rose, I’m certain it carried their Hail Marys heavenward. 🦊❤️
