Father Ken s Notes 2 PHILOSOPHY HILOSOPHY Before the visitor embarked upon discipleship, he wanted assurance from the Master. "Can you teach me the goal of human life? "I cannot." "Or at least its meaning? "I cannot." "Can you indicate to me the nature of death and of life beyond the grave? "I cannot." The visitor walked away in scorn. The disciples were dismayed that their Master had been shown up in a poor light. Said the Master soothingly, "Of what is it to comprehend life's nature and life's meaning if you have never tasted it? I'd rather you ate your pudding than speculated on it." Father Ken You are invited to an All Souls Day Mass at Saint Margaret Mary Church on Friday, November 2, 2018 at 7:00 p.m. At the special liturgy we will remember by name all those whom we have buried from St. Margaret March Church since November 3, 2017.
