Pittsburgh, that is. A Capuchin friend is taking his permanent vows as a friar there on Saturday, so join me in praying for the Brothers. Since their first profession of vows in '99, they've been pursuing their studies in Washington and in due course, they'll make fine ministers of the Gospel.
Update: The profession ceremony Saturday was a beautiful event which I will always remember. For one thing, it's the first time I've ever heard tenor sax as a liturgical music instrument. I had no idea Kenny G. was an influence on Franciscanism. Sigh.
