7:20 pm For the Good of the Order Mike O'Phelan
- Mike used a very interesting example of how life works. There are all ranges of people from rich to poor; from athletic to non-athletic; from average people to people with superior gifts.
- In an example, Sister Teresa from Calcutta, India was attending a meeting where everyone was dressed very expensively, except for herself. She was actually using a safety pin to hold her clothing together.
- When asked about her objective at the meeting, she answered, "God hasn't called me to a mission of success, he has called me to a mission of merch."
- In conclusion, Mike thought we should focus on being aware of the needs of others; in the way that Fr. Jim Galluzzo does in his life.
