Archbishop Gomez :heart:️
JMJ Ive met the Author. Hes obedient to the teachings of the Church. Hes excellent and thorough. Tells it like it is. Question is when the time comes will I be obedient? Will I stand up and teach my Family the Fullness of the Truth? So I purchased enough to hand these out when the time comes. Reminds me of my Dad, when he was a CYO Coach. He always carried a Rule Book in his back pocket. Thanks to an obedient Bishop, I have a Rule Book in my back pocket. Already gave one to our Deacon whose in charge of Ministry to the Sick.
