CRS photos

Here are a few photos of two days of meetings at CRS. My small breakout group was The BEST! Enjoy



Anniversary of Dedication


It was nine years ago today that our new chuch for St. Matthew was dedicated. Here is the article from the Georgia Bulletin. Congratulations to a great parish family!

I forgot to mention some good news!


Rosie is doing much better on her new drugs (steriods) and her lymp nodes are begining to decrease in swelling! She is eating like a horse and is in great spirits. Thanks for your prayers. Lets hope she contiue to respond to her treatment.

Day two of meetings at CRS

Here we are at CRS for another day. It promises to be a great one. Here is a video of something really cool for you to enjoy. More about CRS later!

VIP Guests


So after lunch we had a brief visit from Ken Hackett and Bishop WoldetensaƩ Ghebreghiorghis, Bishop of the Apostolic Vicariate of Harar. He was sharing thanks from the people of his area and the good work CRS does for the people in his area. Likewise he shared a story of when then Senator Obama visited as a Congreassional delegtaion on a fact finding mission about the floods in the area. What a wonderful and humble man! Pray for him and his people.

In Baltimore

Deacon Bill and I are in Baltimore for the Global Fellows Gathering. Lot of great info on the good work of CRS and specifically of the Global Fellows. Great to reconnect with old friends and create some new ones as well. I will post some photos when I get the chance. Peace.

At vet

Rosie's meds are not doing the trick, so we are here to see what else
we might do for her lymphoma. Keep a good thought.

Wednesday, October 14, 2009

Never keep this guy off the counters.

This cat is huge and beautiful. I think you would need big house for him to get his exercise. The markings are stunning as well. What a lucky kid. Enjoy


Stunning and Beautiful

Enjoy this short film about Blue Cranes in South Africa.

Vespers



I went to the Vespers for Bishop-Elect Luis Zarama tonight and it was beautiful and wonderful. At the end of Vespers Bishop-Elect Zarama shared a few words which were very touching. After Vespers we had a nice reception and I got a photo with the man of the hour! FWIW, he likes my new hairdo. More photos to come but in the interim if you need more info you can go here to check it out. If you want to watch the Ordination from home head over to AIB for more info. Keep Bishop-Elect Zarama and our Archdiocese in your prayers. Peace.

Free Waffles!

It has become my tradition to buy waffles for those who would like them on the feast of St. Matthew. So, tomorrow morning I will be at my Waffle Home from 8:45-9:30 buying waffles for those who would like to join me. Waffles only, the rest of your ticket is your responsibility. See you in the morning.

The first cut!



We raised over $8000 for CRS!
Since Deacon Gayle will be leaving mid week we went on ahead and shaved him. Deacon Bill and I will be shaved next Sunday after 11AM Mass!

Suntset over I20

This is kind of a downer

You really have to stick with this commercial for Jello pudding. For something so delicious this commercial is really drab. I guess it was just the state of advertising at that point. Enjoy


Wednesday, August 12, 2009

I'm back

Well I am still recuperating but I am back at work and working on the blog as well. Thanks for all your prayers and kind notes. I saw this cute video today and I think this family should try this with each of their children, I doubt that will happen. Enjoy

Irony in the Anchorage Airport


I took this photo when I was in the Anchorage airport. I just love the irony that in the Ted "Series of Tubes" Stevens Anchorage International Airport wifi is free...albeit a bit clunky and slow. If this makes no sense to you, take a listen to this rant about net neutrality and a classic case of not getting it.

Monday, August 03, 2009

They say the world is overpopulated...

...might they be wrong?



Monday cute

Dog does not seem to mind. In fact gets kinda relaxed at a point. Enjoy


Sunday, August 02, 2009

Problems

Been having problems with posting. So if it is intermitent you know
why. Peace, pv

Mom being attacked by a moose!

Shopping in Juneau

Photos from vacation.

I went to Boston to have a Memorial Mass for Wilfred "Bub" Landry on the 9th of July. Then on the 11th went to Cape Cod for a week. I took some great photos around the garden of the people I was there to celebrate the Mass with and then some good photos of the Tall Ships in Boston, then put my camera away in my backpack and when I went looking for it, I could not find it for days. Then, when I found it, I found I left it on and the battery went down and no charger I was left to just using my iPhone (which is not as great) which is why I did not have many photos of the cape...anyway here are the photos from Boston. Enjoy




And yes I know I still owe you more photos from Japan...they will be here soon!

Do you know where I am?

If you have been to this port you would know where I am, so do you?

Daniel Radcliffe interview

If you are not a Harry Potter fan you might not like this, but still it is really cute and worth a watch. Could you imagine being this young girl getting to interview the actor who plays Harry Potter. It is a sweet scene and is really touching about 5 mins into. So give it a watch you will be happy you did and of course there are plenty of subtitles for you. Enjoy
