About this listen

 For parishioners and staff of St. Rita's Catholic Church, making sense of tragedy and trauma alongside the belief in a loving God is not a spiritual exercise, but a stark reality in the wake of the devasting flood waters that took the lives of two young parishioners, Blair and Brooke Harber. The sisters, 11 and 13, were found fifteen miles downstream from the cabin they slept in with their grandparents; their bodies still clinging to one another. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Fr. Joshua Whitfield, pastor of St. Rita's, talks about faith in a God who would allow young children with so much passion for their faith to die so suddenly and tragically. Father Whitfield explains how their faith in so many ways has been deepened; how the girls' heartbroken parents have been comforted through the Catholic Mass, knowing that Jesus is not some distant deity, but the God who died on a cross and is with them in their sorrow and pain.
