Father Leo,
Your emails just get better and better. The email I received today “Special Projects” is one of the best yet. You not only remind us the purpose of Lent, but remind us to approach Lent with humbleness and generosity to others.
All the photos, stories, receipes and “insider detail” of the life of semininarians is awesome !!
Thank you for your dedication and hard work. I recommend your book, podcast and website to many others.
God Bless You.
