Steve: (upon entering the Church and seeing his dad dressed as a priest) What are you doing in that?
Mark: Blessing everyone I meet! What are you doing here?
Steve: Well, Sister Michael was so sure that her gardener didn't kill Wilson that I was just trying to help out. And that's what you're doing, isn't it? She conned you into helping her too.
Mark: Conned is not an appropriate word to use applied to a nun Steve. (edit) Sister: Will you bless us please Father.
Mark: (as Father McGinnis): May the road rise to, to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
And, ah, may you be a half hour in heaven before the devil knows you're dead. Amen. (edit)

Father McGinnis' blessing

When one of the nuns asks Father to bless them, Mark makes up a blessing that is composed of two separate sayings. The first part is from a traditional Gaelic blessing which reads:
May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

The second part "May you be a half hour in heaven before the devil knows you're dead" is from an Irish blessing/toast. (edit)
