At St James Catholic Church in Tupelo, about 10 years ago, a gray cat showed up and would not go away. She was skin and bones, beat up, full of scratches and sores. I arrived at that parish in Tupelo in February 2012. By that time, Blessing took up residence at the church office. She became a big part of the parish. When I left for Pearl two years ago, I took Blessing and another little cat with me. Blessing is now a beloved part of St Jude in Pearl. She loves finding little nooks and crannies where she can sleep. For a while, she found a mop top in our closet as a comfortable place to cuddle. Yes, Blessing is a sweet little kitty.
This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.
