A FatherSide Chats Poem

At the Marianist Mission, where faith takes root,

A gentle voice bears welcome fruit.

"FatherSide Chats," a digital gleam,

With Father Gene, a flowing stream

Of wisdom shared, and stories told,

A shepherd's heart, both brave and bold.

From screen to soul, his words take flight,

Illuminating dark with light.

He speaks of scripture, old and new,

Of daily struggles, seen anew

Through lenses of compassion deep,

The promises that God will keep.

He tackles questions, big and small,

Responding to each earnest call.

With patient grace and kindly eye,

He helps the searching soul draw nigh.

No judgment cast, no harsh decree,

Just open arms for all to see.

He might discuss the local scene,

The joys and sorrows in between.

A familiar face, a comforting tone,

Making faith feel less alone.

From sacraments to simple prayer,

He shows how God is everywhere.

So tune in close, and lend an ear,

Let Father Gene dispel all fear.

In "FatherSide Chats," a moment's peace,

Where faith and understanding increase.

A digital hearth, where hearts can mend,

A faithful guide, a loving friend.
