Today is the Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary time and this Liturgical Year is nearing the end. I boarded my Pilgrim Train, went pass golden fields and a Dannon factory plant to a tucked away township of Copperton.

Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church is a Today is a Holy Day of Obligation and time for a visit to a new church. I was blessed to attend 9a.m. mass for All Saints' Day which celebrates all the saints, known and unknown, especially those who suffered martyrdom for Christ.
