Overwhelmed with my new position
I want to share some wonderful news. I have been nominated to fulfil a most central service to our community here in Roma. I am awestruck at the honour and responsibility my brother priests have given me. While celebrations require the activity of an entire community, at the heart of the activity, when everyone has settled at the festive table, there is one voice that beckons into the celebration with the simple words, “May I freshen your drink?” Yes I have assumed the great responsibility of barista for the Pontifical Canadian College. My goodness, I am... a “Pontifical Bartender!!!” I know there will be many challenges ahead, yet I pray God will help me fulfill the position he has called me to. And if I run out of ice... may God have mercy on my soul.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

Pope's Opening Words
"We can thwart God's dream if we fail to let ourselves be guided by the Holy Spirit," the pope said Oct. 5, during Mass in St. Peter's Basilica. "The Spirit gives us that wisdom which surpasses knowledge, and enables us to work generously with authentic freedom and humble creativity."

Holy Trinity Pilgrimage
Well I am about as far from Rome as you can get. This is an ancient pilgrimage spot on the side of a mountain in the middle of the National Park.
