Gentlemen: This Thursday, December 8th, is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, a Holy Day of Obligation. Not only will attendance at Mass on the Holy Day give you the opportunity to join Our Lord in the Eucharist & honor the Blessed Virgin Mary, you might also consider getting on your knees to say a special prayer requesting the intercession & blessing of almighty God on the football team representing The College of the Holy Cross this coming Saturday at South Dakota State. Hail, Mary, full of grace. Go Crusaders!!

God Bless the Crossports Faithful. Trusting that the Blessed Virgin is the most effective intercessor to Our Lord, you are welcome to join me in praying the Memorare in the hope that our Crusaders put up a valiant fight and overcome the all of the odds, obtaining a victory over the S. Dakota State Jackrabbits this coming Saturday: www.vaticannews.va/en/prayers/the-memorare.html

Today a colleague of mine who was a brother knight (K of C) was buried...age 85. He was a fine man, was Jesuit educated (St Peter's) and found ways to help others throughout his life. If you have a moment, please say a prayer for him (if prayer is not your thing - please keep him in your thoughts). May Tom Farley rest in peace and may his family and friends find a way to deal with his loss.

I'm glad he lived to see St. Peter's run in the NCAA tournament.

I'm glad he lived to see St. Peter's run in the NCAA tournament. He was constantly in touch with them (he did some fundraising for the college) and his joy was apparent!
