A Friday Afternoon Sentiment

"Since from his bounty I receive
such proofs of love divine,
Had I a thousand tongues to give,
Lord, they should all be thine."

    Father Dan,
    (no doubt confirmed bishop soon)

    None deserve nor have borne witness with more steadfastness than you.

    If it weren't for the fact that Illinois was such a politically intolerable place, I'd move there now just to rest in your pastoral care.

    (though I might just be stuck anyway as my wife's family lives in Champaign)

    Anyway, I'm sure you're gonna be:

    O melhor bishop para fora lá

    (or whatever in the heck the episcopal equivalent of: "mais grande no mundo"
    as my carioca wife says)

    All the Best
