Bedridden priest finds purpose and joy in ministry
In Minneapolis a 67-year-old priest, Father Paschal Kelly, is confined to a hospital bed for over a decade due to multiple sclerosis. He acts as a volunteer chaplain, conducts Mass when possible, and uses mirrors and devices to engage with patients, visitors, and staff while reflecting on aging, faith, and changing city life. He praises kindness he receives and comments on contemporary religious trends. A separate report from Mosinee, Wisconsin notes an Air Wisconsin flight diverted after an anonymous bomb threat with no device found.
