Fwd: another tragedy in Lancaster

Please pray for the recovery of Bishop Keeler and the other priest, and for the soul of the priest who has gone on before us. May he rest in peace.

Also, pray for the families.

God bless

---------- Forwarded message ----------

Two of our parish priests and our former bishop, Keeler, were vacationing in Italy. They were driving about 60 miles north of Rome, when another car ran a red light and broadsided them. The bishop has a broken ankle, the pastor of St. Joseph's has cracked ribs, and our beloved Fr. Quinn, 78, and in residence at Sacred Heart, was killed.

Bishop Keeler called his successor in Harrisburg, Kevin Rhoades, to say that Fr. Quinn almost had a premonition of death that afternoon. He was saying that his life is now so full of peace, he felt so close to God, and was completely in His hands. He was a very learned priest and gave marvelous homilies on the early Church. I personally chose to attend the evening service on Sundays, because that's when he celebrated Mass. He always came into the sanctuary for prayer and meditation before the service. Tonight he's in heaven and we suffer a big loss.
