From Msgr. Frank Chiodo Friends, Notice the photos on the front of the bulletin of our seminarian Max Carson. Max was officially instituted as an acolyte in Rome where he is a student at the North American College. Being instituted as an acolyte constitutes the last step before being ordained a deacon in a year or so. Then he will be, God willing, ordained a priest. We are very proud of Max and we congratulate him and his family. Max is the son of Tim and Margo (Pigneri) Carson. Please remember to pray for Max and for our seminarians. If you would like, drop Max a card to congratulate him. His address is: Mr. Max Carson Pontifical North American College 00120 Vatican City State EUROPE Or email Max at displaycase12@gmail.com I will be in Earling, Iowa to give a three day parish mission this week. Fr. Dolan has invited me to give the parish mission talks. The topic is Divine Mercy and Me. Say a prayer for a fruitful mission. This Annual Diocesan Appeal weekend.
