I know this young man and his parents
and I attend the Tridentine Mass where
James serves as altar boy. what a great
family they are, especially as evidenced
by James' view of his faith, his life,
his goals, his sense of himself in all
aspects of life, definitely including
baseball. How lucky he is and how lucky
are his parents and his sister that they
have each other and most importantly,
their faith.

Why can't James be a Red Sox player, then follow that up with Pope? Or he could be an umpire, and be infallible, just like the Holy Father!

What an incredible streak James has going. He's the Iron Man of daily Mass. The devotion of James's family is inspiring. Thanks for posting this video.

This is awesome! My wife and I just moved from Arlington where we attended the Latin Mass at St. Mary's for 5 years. We are now in Lancaster, PA, and this video made us home sick! What a cool kid. My son is nearly 2 and half and this video inspires me as a father. James and his Dad are a class act! May God continue to richly bless you both!

Yes, I agree with Jill. First a Red Sox player, and then on to Rome! Thank you for posting this and for being a part of our St. Mary's community.

CONGRATULATIONS, JAMES. I RECALL ATTENDING MASS HERE WITH YOU WHEN YOU VISITED IN WAREHAM. WILL BE LOOKING FOR MORE INTERESTING INFO ON YOU.
LOVE FROM YOUR MULBERRY COUSINS FRAN AND KITTIES, TINSEL AND SMOKEY
PS. KEEP THOSE RED SOX IN YOUR PRAYERS AFTER THE POPE'S VISIT!

Thank you Washington Times, for a fabulous piece! We belong to a Catholic homeschool group outside of Chicago and the children always inspire me with their knowledge of the saints and their love of the Church. James' home looks like many of the homes in our group, with the traditional devotional images, etc. These images lift our hearts and minds to God and help us strive to live each day in a holy way. My son is ten and an altar boy just like James.
