Lovely service

Attended a funeral and what a beautiful service. The priest was one of the most friendly I've ever meet. His service was excellent, sadness (a little) laughter (a lot) and really included the congregation in everything. I'm not Catholic but intend to attend this church, it really left an impression on me.

Love this Church. Everyone is soo friendly, lovely atmosphere. 😀
