A Picture Worth a 1000 Words

korean war mass

This is an image of a Mass held outside during the Korean War, on August 28, 1951. Chaplain Kenny Lynch conducts services north of Hwachon, Korea, for men of 31st Regt. Image taken by Pvt. Jack D. Johnson. Jennifer and I have come across this image a few times while browsing Conservative Blog for Peace, and always comment on how powerful it is. It testifies to the power, but also the simplicity, of the sacrament of Christ’s body and blood.
