"When one neighbor helps another, we
strengthen our communities."
~ Jennifer Pahlka
A woman I
know was asked by the priest at her parish if she would serve as a lector. How could she say no? Although she has read at special Masses, the
idea of having to do all the readings as well as the announcements gave her no
small amount of anxiety. She has a
neighbor who is a regular lector. Aware
of her angst, he offered to sit next to her the first time that she serves as a
lector, so that he can coach her along.
The woman is already eternally grateful to her neighbor.
