Sophia and Chris sat together at the front of the church. We had all just listened to the words of the Gospel, and we readied ourselves for Father’s homily. To Sophia and Chris’s right, a colorful mosaic depicting the corporal works of mercy stretched across the wall. The many colors danced together beautifully, and their […]

Evan held the microphone in his hand. All eyes were fixed on him as he thanked the people who helped them make it to their wedding day.
