Excerpt
The old parochial house echoed to the clanking and clattering of the antiquated heating as it struggled to life. Father Murphy sat huddled in the armchair in front of an open fire that had yet to properly generate any heat. As he gazed into the fledgling flames, he wondered how much longer he could maintain his service to the parish and its dwindling congregation. At 73 years of age he no longer had the stamina and if the truth be known the dedication the job called for. The church, his church had been his sole concern for going on the last half century. Ah! But times have changed, he thought to himself and not for the better. The young people no longer had time for prayer and even the some of the old stalwarts had started to turn their backs on the mother church too much scandal, lies and deceit. Rome had long since lost any pretence of reform and was content to retreat into the safe haven of conservatism.
However the tired old priest still dragged his weary body to the pulpit and did his best to minister to his parishioners. Father Murphy was drawn from his pondering by Bridget O’ Dea as she entered the room bringing a breakfast tray. “There you go Michael, eat it up while it’s hot. Its bitter cold out there and we had some snow last night.” Bridget smiled fondly at him then left the room. How long? has Bridget been with me, he thought. If things were different we could be man and wife. The fact that he would end his time in a church run retirement home weighed heavy on his mind.
