Great Day for St. Lawrence

I had the pleasure of interviewing 14 new students for the St. Lawrence Center today, and 12 of them signed up for theology classes at the Center - the other 2 will begin next semester. Boy is it fun to be a priest! The Center through the generosity of benefactors is able to offer theology classes comparable to those offered at Catholic universities (but without the tuition and homework) so that Catholics attending KU can receive a theological education alongside their particular discipline at KU. I'm excited just thinking of all that will be learned this semester, and how many questions will be asked and discussed regarding our Catholic tradition. Let us pray that we would all become more credible disciples of our Lord Jesus, and take on the challenge of learning the faith and passing the faith on to the generations that will come after us!
