and nights with activity, so as not to feel cut off from my core reality is vital to moving this forward and get myself back on track. Fr. Pius, Frances Hood, Patty Pennington, at OLOL and the prayers, calls, visits, and snacks, from my circle of friends and parishioners, are helping me maintain the momentum to work beyond this period of pause. Getting started on planning and preparing for the Sunday May 6th celebration of my Silver Jubilee 25th Anniversary as a Priest of Jesus Christ, is a project I will be asking my personal friends and past and present parishioners to help me organize in coming days. Grateful for the help, support, care, and concern, so many of you have, are, and will continue to, provide me in fidelity to faith, friendship, fraternity, and fellowship, I Am Appreciarively In Christ Jesus............Fr.
