Easter Duty

Patty Reilly lived on an island off Cape Cod and every year he took the ferry to the mainland to perform his Easter Duty. Then without warning ferry service was suspended and his absence was noted thereafter. Eventually a priest friend caught up to him noting that he was missed at the Sacraments. When Patty mentioned the ferry cancellation the priest reminded him there was air service to the mainland. Said Pat "No way was he going to fly over - for venial sins it's too expensive and for mortal sins it's too dangerous." Happy Easter!
