One month...

Well, I have been here slightly over one month. So far, so good. More prayer and more work...

We had the Apostolic Nuncio (Archbishop Pietro Sambi) come for the opening school Mass and a talk to kick off the school year. He is the Vatican's representative to the United States (to the government as the Vatican is a sovereign country and to the Catholic Church also). A packed Church (900-1000) plus a simulcast in our full crypt Church also.

More later... God bless,
FrD.

Benedictine Football...

Well... it wasn't exactly like AU football, but it was a good day on the gridiron. Benedictine won their first home football game (30-13), giving them a 2-0 record and a 17th ranking in the nation (NAIA)! The tailgating was fun, limited (though growing) and easily accessible (since I live about 100 yards from the field).
