My New Home

With much thanks to God I am now safely home in Kansas and have begun my pastoral internship at Cure of Ars parish in Leawood. The way Mundelein Seminary has structured our formation, we spend the spring of our second year of theology working in a parish in our home diocese. I was lucky enough to be assigned to Cure of Ars parish with Msgr. McGlinn and Fr. Kent O’Connor. I have just finished my first week here and I think that this parish is just wonderful. I know I’m going to like it here.

So far, I’ve been busy getting to know names and learning where everything is at. This has meant that obviously my blog has suffered (small tear). Actually, one of the parishioners here at the parish called me to the carpet in the sacristy today for not updating my blog (You know who you are…Bob). Who knew I had such readership?

Anyway, I also haven’t updated lately because I’ve been wondering…”What kind of blog should my blog be?” (sung to the tune of “What Kind of Father Should I Be”). I really don’t think anyone wants to read an online diary of my life, so I was thinking that maybe I could do some kind of Catholic Q&A thing. Perhaps a “Catholic Question of the Week” would be good. I am open to ideas of what you want to see on my little chunk of cyberspace.

If you like the idea of a question of the week (or more often if I can get to it) you can respond to this post or just use the “email me” link to your left whenever you come up with a question. So, there it is…my updated blog. Thanks for reading. Pray for me as I begin my ministry here and I will pray for you.

Peace and all good,

Shawn
