Church comforts the lonely, those who’ve lost, those who grieve. It is a weekly ritual that never changes, never goes away. You can go to mass anywhere around the world — Waseca, North Dakota, Poland, Ireland — and the only difference would be the language. Church provides us something to cling to, the rope line tied from the barn to the house during a blizzard. No matter what swirls around you, you cannot become lost.
