That was when Catholic priest Martin We-en turned to Facebook.
Was turning to god not an option?
They know they'll get responses on FB.

I applaud this priest.
At least he was pragmatic enough to get help.
What's the old saying? "Pray but always look both ways before crossing the road".

I'm surprised there's not a "send prayer" button on Facebook.

The version Irish fisherman use is, 'Trust in God, but row AWAY from the rocks.'

Trust in God, but know that you're playing make believe. So take some real action as well.
