A caretaker

God sends relief; one to counsel, guide, and befriend. Bishop Fulton Sheen has struck deeply in my mind and heart. He took care of me during a difficult time. I am forever grateful. I am posting two distinguishing videos. The second video I find remarkable. How many priest could speak at UCLA in 1972–Vietnam war and protest still raging, hippies and cultural change firmly engaged, anti-authoritarian attitudes prevailing, and the UCLA campus a center of it all? Not only did Bishop Sheen speak, he entertained questions afterwards. The hostility of an angry younger generation is evident in the first young man to pose a query. Overall, there is a sense the remarkable man of intellect and Catholic spirituality captivated the UCLA crowd. His moving answer to the confronting young man soothes the soul.
