Well, this will be brief because I want to get to bed, but basically, I have finished 95% of packing and what-not and should be able to throw it all in the car tomorrow morning. I have to be to Brute before 4 PM, so I'll be leaving Quincy before 10 AM. It has been a wonderful summer, and I hate to see it end, but at the same time I am looking forward to a new semester and the challenges, fun, and growth that it will bring.
Please keep myself and the other 40 some-odd guys that will be at Brute this year in your prayers.
Thanks for reading my blog, and the prayers!
St. Maximilian Kolbe - Pray for us, that we may be willing to give ourselves totally to God and our neighbors. Amen
This evening the other Springfield seminarians and myself will head over to Springfield for the diocese's deaconate ordination. Seth Brown and Steve Arisman will both be ordained deacons tomorrow at 10:30 AM. Probably us seminarians will be pressed into service as servers and what-not (so, I'll have to write something up when I get back). I don't think I have ever been to a deaconate ordination, so it should be cool. Please pray for these guys folks!

I'd
ask all your prayers for my grandmother, who just was called from this
life. She was a staunch catholic and very supportive of my vocation.
