( he equally doesn't know if his prayers are reaching anyone in particular. that said, when has Matt ever felt like his prayers were actually heard? he's always struggled in his faith, in the idea that God didn't hear him. that he didn't hear God's voice either, no matter how desperately he wanted to. so really it's nothing new to feel a little ignored. Father Lantom had always impressed on him that God spoke in a whisper, so Matt supposes he might just not have been listening hard enough lately.
Matt has always rather enjoyed finding kinship in his faith. the idea he might not be the only catholic in Beacon is a bit of a reassurance. he offers half a smile in Scully's direction, subdued by their location and simply an outward reflection of the wearing on his mood, but genuine even in its simplicity. )
Not quite the same as Mass, but I'm glad the church is here. Makes it a little easier. ( obviously one didn't need a church to pray, but the familiarity of the routine is still nice. )
