I live in a suburb of Minneapolis and the horrific school shooting that just occurred at a Catholic school here in our city has rekindled some of the feelings I had as a teacher. I'm retired from teaching, but now I convey some of those thoughts and feelings on the fact that I have precious grandchildren sitting in classrooms in a few different schools.

To some people, the word "worship" may be synonymous with "boredom". That's really unfortunate because true worship is anything but boring. A few months ago I had what you may call a personal "epiphany" with regard to worship.
