Word and Deed: The Feast of Saint Stephen

December 26, 2020 By Dorian Del Priore 1 Comment

Throughout my younger years, my dad was fond of reminding me that Del Priores were supposed to be Renaissance men. It was something he took great pride in. His motto and mantra back then: Jack of all trades, master of none. Honestly, I think he sold himself short, as he is truly a master of much.

Word and Deed – The Feast of St. Stephen

I want my kids to be tender with the vulnerable and disadvantaged, serving their neighbor with compassion. I also want them to be able to share the Good News of how God is working in their lives.

St. Stephen tells bold truths. Do I encourage that from my children?

My daughter has outgrown her bold statements. But now I miss her brutal honesty.
