A week in the life of a priest



It may come from the land down under, but the sentiments expressed in this video clip exploring one week in the life of a priest seem universal, just like our Church. (H/T to The Deacon's Bench for this one.) In the Australian priest's daily life, I could see glimpses of various priest friends.

Favorite quote: "My uncle once asked me, 'Is the priesthood as good as you thought it would be?' And I said, 'Well, no. It's much better.'"

I wish everyone who's ever had an issue with the Catholic priesthood, and even those who don't, would take the time to watch this and get a better understanding of what our priests do for us as individuals and for the larger Church.
