Ascension Day -- another awesome moment to remember and reflect on.

Mass today was awesome. We're in the downtown parish, and I ducked in for the noon Mass. It was packed -- they had to open the choir loft because folks were left standing in the back. The sanctuary itself seats about 600, but so many downtown workers stop in on Holy Days of Obligation, there's not quite enough room for everybody. I love it when church is full. All the parts that the people say just boom out, and I start to feel like I should, that I'm standing in worship with millions of people around the globe and throughout heaven, praising our Lord and Maker. Perfect!
