I talked before Mass a couple of weekends ago about my recent visit to the House of Formation for our seminarians in Little Rock.  We celebrated Mass in the chapel that was sponsored by the state Knights of Columbus.  We then shared a meal prepared by Diego Miceli of our parish in the dining room that was paid for by a donation from our parish.  The furnishings for the dining room were purchased using the money that was raised last year at our Lasagna fundraiser that was spearheaded by our local Knights of Columbus 10208.  I continually give thanks to God for those who are committed to supporting the men who are being formed for the priesthood for our wonderful diocese.  We will all have a chance to join in this ongoing effort when we have our next fundraising dinner for the House of Formation this July at our second fundraiser.  The exact date of this event and more details will be announced in the near future.  It is truly a blessing to be connected to a parish that is taking such a lead (that, hopefully, will inspire other parishes to do so) in supporting vocations to the priesthood.  Please keep up the prayers for this important cause as well.
