Fr. Michael,
You really deserve this exerience. We pray that God will watch over and guide you in all that you do and everywhere you travel. This experience will truly benefit our parish with all that you share along the way. We hope to see a glow on your face and hear the song in your heart when you return. We will miss you, but are also looking forward to Fr. Gregory’s time with us. Via Con Dios. We are very happy for you.
It is like being with you in Essex, Father.
I am greatly enjoying the trip.
