TUESDAY QUOTE OF THE WEEK CCCLXLV

FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND:  "Chekhov said, "Let's put God - and all these grand progressive ideas - to one side. Let's begin with man; let's be kind and attentive to the individual man - whether he's a bishop, a peasant, an industrial magnate, a convict in the Sakhalin Islands, or a waiter in a restaurant. Let's begin with respect, compassion, and love for the individual - or we'll never get anywhere.'"  Vasily Grossma

IN OTHER NEWS:

This morning there was a press conference to announce the new bishop of the Diocese of Cleveland.  The clergy of St. Sebastian congregated in front of the T.V. to watch and offered up a prayer beforehand.
As you may already be aware, The Most Reverend Nelson J. Perez has been named the 11th bishop of the diocese.  Please keep him in your prayers.  Woohoo!
See more HERE.

God bless Bishop Perez. I hope he loves us and leads us faithfully to God.

And God bless Bishop Lennon, too. He was very good to my parish, my merged parish, and my unmerged parish.

God is good. All the time.
