I live in St Louis.... There was quite a bit of turmoil as the ignorant masses wanted to get rid of St Louis as they believed him to be a colonist... That is completely not who he was and St Louis had no direct connection to the founding of the city. Catholics stood in truth and love against the mob - but there was a mob.
Because of this, every time I go to church I wonder if that will be the day that there is a shooting. It's a matter of time. It's always in the back of my mind.
I was really spooked.
I know that St Michael will protect us, that doesn't mean we won't go through trials.

Yes, it was beautiful, but scary at the same time. It sticks with you.
