So much to do...so little time...

Wow! The response to my last post on the role of the priest as teacher was impressive and also very comforting. I didn't really question my responsibility as a priest to be a teacher of the flock but it is nice to know that good, solid Catholics agree with that role of a priest.

The reason I haven't followed up is that I am preparing to take 20 teens from our parish to a youth conference in Springfield, MO. This is my 5th year of attending this conference but is the 1st year for Prince of Peace so I have been handling alot of the specifics. As a result I have not been able to blog like I usually do.

I will be leaving on Thursday morning for the youth conference and will be away until Sunday. I am leaving again Monday for a class retreat and will not return until Wednesday. So, I will not be making a blog entry again until sometime after July 24th. Until next time...God bless.

Don't let those painful comments bother you Father. We have several generations of people out there whose conscience has been formed by the KC Star, District, Appellate, & Supreme Court Judges, CNN, politicians of every character, etc. So these people today just lack an informed conscience. I don't know how you reach them other than to tell them to come back when they get their head back on right.

20 teenagers on a youth conference?

I don't know what you did, but that's some heinous penance.
