Vehicles Blessed at Corpus Christi…

By Christopher Byrd | July 21, 2008

Father Anzelm Blessing Vehicles

In a move which will hopefully get me 60 miles to the gallon, I had the trusty ByrdMobile blessed at Corpus Christi this past Sunday…Father Anzelm made sure every vehicle was indeed blessed. 

The blessing was done in honor of Saint Christopher is the patron saint of travelers, and there are several legends about him, including the one in which he was crossing a river when a child asked to be carried across. When Christopher put the child on his shoulders he found the child was unbelievably heavy. The child, according to the legend, was Christ carrying the weight of the whole world.

Hmmm…Christopher…what a great name! :-)
