Staying In Phoenix
On another trip. This time to Phoenix, AZ. This is the beautiful church I get to go to while here. It’s right across the street from the convention center where I’m covering the Clean Cities Congress.
They only have a noon weekday Mass but I think I can make that!
There’s a big Cinco de Mayo festival going on downtown here this weekend too. I walked through it last night after attending the Phoenix Diamondacks game. Besides all the festivity and fanfare I came back with one main impression. There were so many young people out who all seemed to be having a good time. However the clothes and some of the actions they were exhibiting on the street were scandalous. I know it is hot out right now but let’s just say that one of the biggest challenges anyone has today is holding on to purity.
I pray for those who were dressed so inappropriately, the people who designed and sold that stuff and the people who find it a real temptation to at least impure thoughts.
