I just said a prayer for the Ravens on the Ed Norris Show on WHFS, popular talk and sport channel in Baltimore. Ed Norris, former Baltimore Police Chief asked me to come on each week and pray for the hometown team. INCREDIBLE!
An opportunity to pray – on the Radio!

I squeezed in the brief conversation a little lesson on humility versus pride, especially since the Ravens are “supposed” to be able to beat this team rather handily. BUT, that’s why I prayed that the team approaches every game with a sense of humility, to work as hard as they can, and to do their best – never “underestimating” the other side.
Trust me, I’m no authority on humility. That’s why I prayed for it!

They also have great taste in food. Last week, they took me to lunch where I had a grilled Romaine Salad, topped with grilled shrimp, crabmeat, and Cesar Dressing. Delicious, and healthy!

This week, our seminarians compete in the soccer tournament, called the Rector’s Cup. I’m praying for victory for them too! We’re reigning champs, for a few years in a row. BUT, we can’t be boastful, but humble – to push us to keep doing our best!

And, while they play, I will be cooking up a storm in the Carolinas! I’ll be at the NC, Charlotte Eucharistic Congress and in Charleston, SC Family Day Celebration. Should be a good time!

Dear Fr. Leo
God is certainly blessing your work.
I wasn’t surprised at your two Jewish friends joining you all for vespers. After all, the two psalms were from the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament. And I believe we get our daily rhythm of the Liturgy of the Hours from the practice of the Jews.
I didn’t discover pizza till I left Ireland in 1968 to study near New York. In the song that Dean Martin used to sing, That’s Amore, I thought the line ‘When the moon’s in the sky like a big pizza pie’ was ‘a big piece of pie’! We didn’t have pizza in Ireland in those days.
I’m in the Columban house in Melbourne, Australia, at the moment to do some mission appeals for the Columbans.
Fraternally
Fr. Sean
