As you read this I’m in the Holy Land (at least I hope so!). I’ll be back late on November 1st. Please say a prayer for a good trip and for safe travels. Know of my prayers for you.

All are invited! Speakers will follow the morning Mass and continental breakfast. Reservations are requested for meal planning purposes.
