<p>[QUOTE="princeofwaldo, post: 26753035, member: 24091"]Great story. Which reminds me of my daughter's first communion back in 2014 in Kansas City. Father Farnan at St. Thomas Moore Church (also affectionately known by the women of the parish as Father What-A-Waste because he was allegedly so handsome) - gave the sermon that morning. He described an interview with Napoleon late in his life. Looking back on his long illustrious life, Napoleon was asked what the happiest moment of his life had been. The expectation was that he would say the day he triumphed at the Battle of Austerlitz, or some other historically significant event. Instead, Napoleon claimed the happiest day of his life was at age 7, on the day he made his first communion: "I felt closer to God that day, than I ever have since then".</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1708242[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1708243[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
