Going into mission territory


Okay, this is my opportunity to show off pictures from a trip to the U.P. with some lovely carloads of Ave people for the wedding of other long-lost Ave people. It was a great trip, a beautiful wedding, and the choir was absolutely inspired.


A perfect balance and blend of strong voices: 3 sopranos, 2 altos, 3 tenors (not pictured: Justin--he is holding the camera), and 2 basses. Bach, Mozart, and Palestrina were represented among the pieces we brought to life. The small town was blown away by our effort.

And missionary territory . . .


Today I finally accepted a position at a State University near home within the University Parish / Newman center. It is an internship, but the title is "Campus Missionary" and the goal is to gain experience. It sounds like many of my duties will be to act as a DRE and organize the religious education for the K-5 age-group as well as to help with RCIA and Adult Ed. Pray for me that all goes well!
