"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

An inspirational religious story
From atheist, Allahpundit (he's nothing if not evenhanded).
There may well be a mundane explanation for this (priest driving by, walked up, did his thing, then humbly went his way without anybody noticing), but I like to believe that there are more things in heaven and earth than etc. etc. We don't understand the universe, God's creation, so how can we understand God, an entity beyond our little human comprehension?
Even if it wasn't a miracle, there is inspiration and beauty in a priest stumbling onto the scene, doing his work, and humbly (and anonymously) walking away.
Deborah.... RebeccaH and Paco, well said. It was pointed out at Allah Pundit that clergy are not supposed to seek glory in this world.
It's interesting that the scene played the way it did after the prayer. God's hand wax surely at work. Human or Heavenly, may God bless that angel. He already blessed Lens. Wonder what purpose He has in store for them....
Well, nobody else commented, so I will I guess.
