After spending 15 hours in a room with this Orthodox husband and father, working on a project together, all pretenses had waned. He had complained about a Catholic neighbor, and this was the opening I'd prayed for on the plane the day before.
He asked me what being Catholic was all about. I really couldn't think of anything sophisticated. I said it was about family. About staying married. About having lots of kids. But most of all it was about serving - at home, at work, in society.
He was surprised. Really? Do the priests really talk about that? I said many of them do, but not all.
Have to follow up with this man.
