Fr Nathan

 

We got to meet Fr Nathan of Catholic Stuff You Should Know podcast on our way through Denver. We arranged our trip so that we could make mass in Denver Saturday night- so I did a bit of stalker behavior and googled his church- St Joan of Arc, Arvada CO.
Then I called the office and asked who would be saying mass Saturday night.
Bingo! So we left Bellevue at 3:30 pm Friday to try and avoid the traffic. And we pulled in to Denver Saturday at 3. We checked into our hotel and I showered off all of my travel stink while the kids and Chris swam theirs off.
Mass was your typical "bit of heaven on Earth" mass. And the homily (it was a sermon he announced at the beginning "sorry if you came expecting a homily") was fabulous. He preached against a assisted suicide prop up for vote in CO. I included my notes.
After mass we met him and he blessed our camper- and then the birds. He is more lovely and funny and kind in person- if that is possible. I pray their apostolate continues to do the good work it does now. I pray God continues to bless them.
