And John Fisher says, okay, I'm really tired.

Can I go back to sleep?

Okay, so two saints that when faced with death decided one would go to sleep and the other would play football.

Why?

Because they're prepared and they're ready.

They're done.

I'm locked and loaded.

Let's go.

That's how we want to finish.

What would you do?

me being kind of alpha and wanting to cover every base, I'd probably find the other priests that I lived with and say, I need to go to confession and have the apostolic pardon.

But I feel like I'm there most days anyway, you know?

I go to confession at least once a month, and it's not easy to do.

Before I had this other priest come to live with me two weeks ago, I'd have to go searching a priest.

But there's a lot of graces that come through the sacrament.

Plus, there's something we have called plenary indulgences in the Catholic Church,

If I do certain things and I unite them to Jesus, such as going to Mass, receiving communion in a state of grace, going to confession every 10 days, and then if I pray a rosary in the church, I can ask for one soul to be busted out of purgatory every day.

Or I can ask for myself to have my purgatory removed.

Now, my theory on this is if I'm busting all these other guys out, God's going to be more lenient to me at the end of my life.

So every day I offer those prayers up for one soul to be moved into heaven.
