Serving Christ and Connecting Catholics in Western North Carolina
To all the children who are celebrating their first Holy Communion at this time of year, I have a special message.
My family and I keep a small flock of heritage sheep in the pasture behind our home. They are a primitive domestic breed from Scotland called Soay. We chose this particular breed of sheep because they are very low maintenance. Self-sufficiency runs in their Scottish blood. They generally take care of themselves, which suits our particular style of shepherding just fine.
