A day in the life of..

My dad called me Monday night to see what I knew about the priest from my church that got accused of child molestation. EXCUSE ME?!?! I thought maybe he was kidding or joking but sure enough I got online and found an article about it. This priest from my church is being investigated for allegations of child molestation. Nice. And wouldn't you know that this is the priest that Tyler did his First Reconciliation with??? I find this just so bothering. It is things like this that make it really hard to have faith. I mean I try so hard to have something to believe in and I am trying to build foundations for my son and then something like this happens. It's unnerving. Of course Tyler is fine - I talked with him about the whole situation and everything is fine. (I didn't tell him anything about the priest - just asked about his interactions with him.)

The other thing I find troubling is the fact that the church has not muttered a word about this to us. Don't you think a nice letter or some sort of acknowledgment would be in order?
