It iz me! Batman, da rectory doggo! Did u know dat I wuz adopted b4 I wuz taken home by my daddo??? It iz true! A very nice hooman took-ed me home, but I wuz a lit bit 2 much o a doggo 2 take care of. It wuz not dere fault. I wuz (and still iz) a handful every once in a while. But if dat nice person didn't bring me back 2 da wonderful people at Beacon Animal Rescue ( https://beaconanimalrescue.org/) I would have NEVER met my daddo and hav da amazing lif I haz now!!! In da readings we hear about da stone rejected by da builders dat haz become da cornerstone. If Jesus wasn't rejected by da world den we would NEVER hav da resurrection and access 2 da amazing lif dat we hav now!!! As St. Peter spoke in Acts o de Apostles, "He is the stone rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. There is no salvation through anyone else, nor is there any other name under heaven given to the human race by which we are to be saved." SO God wantz us 2 remember dat wat da world tinks iz important iz not wat we need 4 salvation. What we need iz Jesus, da stone rejected by the builders, da Son o God who givz us a lif much more awesome den anyting we could experience here on earth (EVEN WIT SNACKOS)!
And if u haz a place in ur heart and ur home 4 a furry friend, pleaz visit my friendz at Beacon (or your favorite shelter) and take home another type o "stone rejected by da builders"!
God Bless!
Batman, da rectory doggo
