Letter #14
Colleen has no escape from sinful desires.


Dearest Santo,

For the first time in my life I felt like I knew the power of sinful temptation. When I fled from the inn to the church, it was as if I hoped to run away from it. As I hoped to run away from the way you made me feel. I imagined I could still deliver myself from temptation.

I never needed more help than I did that night. I was weak and I knew it...

I begged God to protect me, to keep me in the arms of His church. But He was far away that night, while Mrs. Fitzpatrick, your accomplice, was right there...

My jaw nearly hit the floor when you arrived with Mrs. Fitzpatrick, who wore my scarf as if she had been wearing it for years. May the Lord forgive you both for deceiving Father Mallory - in Church, of all places! And may God forgive me, for keeping quiet as Sister Mary Anne coughed up an apology for her "mistake." Perhaps your generous contribution to the Church will go a little ways to saving our souls.

When you and Mrs. Hughes appeared at the church, I thought you were there to help me, when, truth be known, your motive was much less honorable.

You deceived me, Santo. I had sought sanctuary within the walls of the Church, but you tore down those walls with the help of poor, unwitting Father Mallory. You arranged for Mrs. Fitzpatrick to ask Father Mallory for my help in watching the neighborhood children. But I knew it was just an excuse for us to meet at your inn; the Church and good deed nothing more than a veil to disguise our torrid intentions.

I was left alone in the struggle to suppress my sinful desires. But they were much too powerful. I felt as if I had nowhere to turn. Not even my faith could save me.
