In today's Gospel, a woman who had been suffering hemorrhages for 12 years, pushed through the crowd because she had the conviction that if she just touched the hem of Jesus' cloak she would be healed. Fr. Brendan saw that same faith last week when an old man in a wheelchair pushed through the crowd to receive communion first, convinced that God would nourish him with this sacrament. Let us all trust that God can heal us if we merely touch the hem of his cloak.
