Not quite sure if Jesus was talking about this when he said, "Then every Scribe who has been instructed in the Kingdom of heaven is like the head of a household who brings from his storeroom bot the new and the old." (Mt 13:52). Yesterday, August 1st, was a day of bringing out the old and setting it up anew, for the Sheridan Street community in Lawrence, MA. With the help of friends we placed the statue of St. Joseph, which had adored the Marist Property in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts for at least 50 years, presiding over the garden on a large pedestal, on a new pedestal facing the back door of the residence. Painted like new, the white statue gleams in the sun, reminding all that the child he holds in his arms is the Light of the World. It is like having a piece of the Kingdom of God in our own back yard. Thanks to all involved in this move to preserve a piece of Marist history and inspire generations to come.
