This Week's Issue The Word Became Flesh Cardinal Rigali's weekly column. Read it here. Where it all began: St. Thomas the Apostle Parish in Glen Mill No one really knows what led that first road-weary Jesuit missionary to the door of the Willcox homestead in Ivy Mills, Pennsylvania. We only know that it happened sometime during the 1720s and that he was coming from Old Bohemia, Md., on his way to minister to Catholics in Pa. Perhaps his horse needed watering or he caught a whiff of smoke from a nearby chimney, but Providence decreed on that day he should knock at the door of the only Catholic family living in what is now Concord Township, Delaware County. Divination: Consulting psychics and mediums An opportunity to look into the future is very tempting, especially at certain times in our lives when we're suffering from financial woes or loneliness or bereavement. This is when the temptation to visit a psychic — or “medium” — can be almost irresistible. |
