Why I attend Mass

By David Perry

The Lord is my shepherd; He desires to meet my every need.

He orders me to rest and abide with Him in in green, wide-open, wind-swept pastures under His protective eye.

He will personally anoint our heads with oil

Our joy will not be contained

Surely, His goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of our lives, and we shall live with Him now and forever!!
