My first impression when I read about the funeral situation was that he sounded like he was on the edge and needed help. People don't totally lose it like that if things are normal. I'll offer my Mass this morning for him.
I hope you prayed for the family as well. They were traumatized. That should also be acknowledged. “Get this thing out of here” She was not human to him at that moment.
You should show love to the victims as well. John 13:35
It would be a shame if this moment made them doubt their faith.
What faith? They did not even know they knocked over the body of Christ!
Yellow journalism!
