To all cursillistas who
may read this:
I was struck by the
tripod I witnessed at the Columbus Day Parade this afternoon. While so
many are trying to tear down our statues and destroy any good which they
represent not just of Columbus but so many other heroes who while they may not
have been perfect men, are honored for various honorable things they did or
traits they possessed.
I was amazed at how on
this Columbus day I witnessed our tripod of piety study and action at this
year's parade:
PIETY - The parade
started with a prayer service at St. Patrick's Cathedral (something I never
realized)
STUDY - Thousands
of copies of the Constitution of the United States were handed out at the
parade. STUDY what it really says and does NOT say
ACTION - all of the
various charitable works of amazing people both Italians and non-Italians alike
who give back to this country out of love and gratitude for what they and their
ancestors have received. Maybe God meant the tripod for everyone - not
just cursillistas or maybe, with the help of God, everyone can become a
Cursillista!
PS: Big shout out for
that amazing St. Pio float!!!
