William and I began our study of religion that day by discussing the number of Sacraments.
"I know already. Seven," he said confidently. Surprised because I help in another classroom and not his Sunday school class. Our class hadn't yet covered this. I asked if he could name any.
"Well, there is Marriage. Baptism. Then, there is the one where you have to follow the rules."
I was puzzled. Follow the rules?
"Yes, you know, like Father Mark must follow the rules."
Oh, Holy Orders.
Any others?
"Yes, Annoying of the Sick. But I don't know why they use that word: annoying."
Notes:
About a year after our built, insulation began flaking off and hanging in sheets inside of it. It has taken us about two years total, but today, they will take off the roof, replace the insulation and put the metal roof back on again. It seems that it was a bad batch of insulation.

I love "Annoying the Sick". My mom's family practices this. If they find out someone in the family is sick, they call them on the phone, waking them up every time they go to sleep, to ask them how they are feeling.
