At age 78 it was learning how to use the computer. Thanks God the nuns in high school prevailed upon me to take a course in typing. (A special thanks to Sister Wilma, Sister of St. Joseph, Gate of Heaven High School South Boston, Ma.) So armed with the typing knowledge I muddled through learning the computer, the internet, deleting when I should have not and every few years getting a new computer as technology grew by leaps and bounds.
Now we are blogging, trying to make Constant Contact work for us, building on our web page NewDivine Mercy.org, (thanks to Bill Woeppel of Wilton Manors guiding us along, )having a video view of our Sunday Mass uploaded to you tube and reaching out on Facebook. And learning how to be sociable in our social networking . More New Speak.
Jesus invited and used fishermen, the uneducated, former prostitutes, the despised, the rejected and sinners to help him get his message out: The message of love, acceptance and forgiveness. No computer stuff for him back then. Of course his miracles thrown in now and then helped. But I marvel today how his message travelled all over the world. In todays world a click of the computer key can be seen eveeerywhere. But yet, with all the magic of today, his message of love, acceptance and forgiveness gets lost .
May this priest in a small mission in Wilton Manors do his best to spread His message. Love to you all. A Servant of Divine Mercy, Father John Joseph Reid
