The Bishop had a spare moment that Saturday morning. He arrived, accompanied by the Grogan’s local parish priest. Father Dunally had been asked to arrange the visit on the Bishop’s behalf.

Father Dunally was an older man, friendly, talkative relaxed with people, and well liked by his parishioners. He’d popped round to the Grogan’s on a few previous occasions. On this occasion, however, he looked far from his usual comfortable self. It was as if his white clerical collar fitted him far too tightly. He kept running his finger inside it, trying to loosen it. He was also unusually quiet.

The Bishop was taller than Father Dunally, thinner and quite a few years younger. Neither Jacinta nor Josh recognised him immediately, although they had seen him several times before when he’d visited their parish. At those official times he had seemed even taller than he appeared now, but then of course he’d been elevated by his peaked mitre and his shepherd’s crook, which was even taller than he was.

Mum and Dad had told Jacinta and Josh the Bishop was visiting. They all knew exactly why. But no one knew how he had found out. Josh had more than a sneaking suspicion, but since he wasn’t one hundred percent sure if it was because of his loose lips, he decided to keep quiet for the time being.
