Batman's Column

June 4, 2023

My Deer Parishionerz o St. Padre Pio,


It iz me, Batman, da rectory doggo! According 2 my daddo, I haz MANY namez! I iz called Batman (DUH!) and "Bub Bubs". I iz often called "Your Royal Highness" and "Da Greatest Doggo in da World"!  However, wen I getz in trouble I iz a "Big Boob" and get called a "Goober" (Whutever dat iz!). On dis feast of the Most Holy Trinity, we knowz dat we can callz God "Father", "Son", and "Holy Spirit" - TREE divine personz in ONE GOD! But as Sacred Scripture showz us in da readingz 4 2day, God iz called LOTZ more tingz!!! He iz "merciful and gracious", "slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity". God iz "praiseworthy" and 2 b "exalted"! He iz both "holy" and "glorious"! God iz filled wit love and peace and ABOVE ALL da Gospel of John remindz us dat God iz our savior (and we would b in BIG trouble if He wasn't)!!! So who iz God 2 you? Wut name would u give Him? We can name God anyting and everyting dat iz good becauz He iz da author o every good ting! So call out 2 God in da name da YOU have given Him!!! Just don't call Him a "Goober". I don't tink dat word iz very nice.


May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you!


Batman, da rectory doggo
