In Washington DC studying this week

I am very blessed to be at Catholic University in Washington DC this week, starting a masters degree in ecclesial management and administration.  I am so grateful to have this opportunity.  I will be back in Pearl for the masses this upcoming weekend, but then after the mass for the Assumption of Mary on Wednesday, I will be hitting the road again to head up to my hometown of Chicago for a mission appeal.  Prayers for all of you, my blog readers, parishioners, family and friends.  It is blessing to be in such an amazing atmosphere here at Catholic U.
