July 28, 2013 – Holy Trinity Parish, Okarche, Oklahoma
What an absolutely beautiful day for a beautiful celebration!! I sang The Shepherd Cannot Run during mass celebrated by Archbishop Paul Coakley. It is such a special and humbling experience to be a part of mass – especially at Holy Trinity – Fr. Rother’s boyhood parish. The parishioners were fantastic hosts outdoing themselves with a wonderful picnic lunch after mass complete with rows and rows of dessert tables!! I think I gained 10 pounds just looking at all the tasty treats!
The Father Stanley Rother Guild had a table displaying our favorite Fr. Rother items. Pictured is Guild Director, Fr. Price Oswalt with fellow guild board members. If you would like to be a part of the guild or would like more information, please visit http://www.fatherstanleyrotherguild.org We would love to have your prayers and support!
There was also a cakewalk, face-painting and balloons for the kids – which made for plenty of fun! After the festivities a closing graveside ceremony was held at the cemetery. It was an inspiring day. I so hope Fr. Rother is named a saint in my lifetime – please pray for the cause!
