It’s been three and a half years since I went to North Easton, Mass. to pray at the grave marker of “Rosary Priest” Father Patrick Peyton for my longtime friend Michael Vallins.
The beloved Fr. Peyton, who died in 1992 and is now is in the middle of being beatified as a Saint, was right about two things: “The family that prays together stays together” and “God answers our prayers.”
Thank you, Fr. Peyton for answering my prayers. Michael Vallins, told his days on earth were numbered to less than 365 days three and a half years ago, is still here.
