"As a priest there inevitably comes a time that the people he is
entrusted with break his heart wide open. This is nothing other than
Christ letting priests experience His own Heart being deeply broken when
faced with sin, indifference, and ingratitude. What is there to do but
love them with the love of Christ, offering a broken heart for their
conversion, begging all the while, that if he be cast down, they be
lifted up; if he be crushed, they be renewed, if he be crucified, they
be given life and holiness."
-Rev. Samuel Medley
