Dear friends,
No internet connection yet! Things take a very long time in Rome. Workers were here for one day last week to begin threading the cable through our ancient walls.
Then they disappeared and have not returned since. When I inquire, the answer is usually an expressive hand gesture. I have so much that I want to write about. Help me to be patient.

About Father Mark
His Excellency, the Bishop of the Diocese of Tulsa, Oklahoma has given
Father Mark a special mandate to live in adoration before the Most
Blessed Sacrament, in a spirit of thanksgiving and intercession, that he
might make reparation before the Eucharistic Face of Jesus for all his
brothers in Holy Orders. At the same time, he is available to the
priests and deacons of the Diocese for spiritual and sacramental
support in their pursuit of holiness.
Brother: I await the torrent of words forthcoming with great expectation!
We miss you, Father, but we await with patience. As St Teresa said: "Patient endurance attains to all things."
Then they disappeared and have not returned since.
Dear Father, that sounds just like the South...workers disappearing for weeks with unfinished work lingering and lingering. I do feel for you.
Be patient Father Mark!
Remember when in Rome do as the Romans do!!
In my thoughts and prayers..
Cousin Mary
Father, we are looking forward to your return.
We're all here, watchful and waiting. Bless.
Prayerfully awaiting the "seeds" from the desert...

+Dear Father,
So glad to hear from you! I was getting worried a little that you would not be able to post at all from Rome. I know what it is like to deal with workmen, so I pray for your good patience and ours! God provides such delays for a good reason...I hope you are doing well. Did you get any news of your dear Dad's condition? We are thinking of you and praying for you with much love. There is an envelope coming your way via "snail mail". United in Him...
