Fr. Glenn: Bursting Bubbles
By Fr. Glenn Jones
Was very sorry to see the news of Los Alamos yesterday with a number of shops having been “broken into”… rather an understatement when one looks at the photos. The poor shop owners—first they get hit with closures because of the coronavirus, and now this. “Who woulda’ thunk it” in quiet little Los Alamos? But … it happens once in a while. Los Alamosians will remember a several-night crime spree a few years ago. Such things certainly wake us up from easy complacency.
That “double whammy” of the shop owners reminded of a much worse double hit in the early 20th century; you may have seen Read More

Fr. Glenn: When The Going Gets Tough…
By Fr. Glenn Jones
