Vespers

In a few of the larger cities on this trip we have been able to go to evening mass, and sometimes Vespers. It is often held in a side chapel of a much larger church, usually attended by older people but always with a young woman or two and sometimes young men. Its' significance to us is that these few people, who join at the end of their day to worship, often coming from work, are something precious that the world will never touch, never change - and will never understand.  

When we read headlines of the nonsence across the world, these faithful people reassure us... and what a privilege to join them when we find them in France or the US.
