    Share Share Post
    Once there was an old woman living by herself in a house. One night she got sick. She had no one to go for the priest. A knock came to the priest's door. The servant girl came out The priest asked her if she saw anybody. The girl said. "No but I see two lights. The priest went to the door and looked out. He said That is a call for me." So he followed the two lights, and they led him to the house. When he went in he found the woman sick. He anointed her and she died. The two lights were her two children who had died a while before
