My trip to the Bronx for the Divine Mercy conference

I would love to fill you all in on my trip but MJ's sudden death has put a damper on the excitement. I will post a few things that happened though:

I met and spoke with Fr. Groeschel and he autographed a book for me.

I met and spoke with Fr. Pavone and invited him to speak at our parish.

My trip was perfect from start to finish - flights on time, short lineups, no problems at customs, saw everyone I wanted to see. Every moment was a blessing. In a day or two I will write more.

Here are a couple photos:


Fr. Pavone. I am crazy about him!




Linda and Louise. Linda "adopted" me and in typical brash
"Noo Yawk" fashion made sure I met Fr. Groeschel!

Br. Nicholas (what a sweetie!), Fr. Groeschel and
Dr. Robert Stackpole in the background.

Was the trip worth it? It was the trip of a lifetime!!!!
Lent a desert? Perhaps, but I found the oasis of living water!
