Congrats Miles. We've been at cross purposes on occasion but you've also been a fun sparring partner. I still have all my hair remarkably

Prayers for the ongoing discernment

At least one of us does. I give myself two more years before I have to shave my head completely.

I made you what you are. Take my name as your new Priest name or whatever.

I think being known as Father Sassy Gay Friend will cause scandal to the faithful.

So, if all goes well, do you know where you will be doing your seminary studies?

Holy Trinity seminary for college seminary, and one of three options for major seminary, including The Mount, Kenrick Glennon, and Mundelein, which is what I will be hoping for.

Mundelein?  Thanks for the advance warning.

 

Seriously, I don't know if you've ever visited there, but Mundelein is a very relaxing place.  I've been up there a few times.  The new rector, Fr. Kartje, is a former astrophysicist (or something along those lines).  But brush up on your Polish, as many of your classmates will be from Poland.  (Or at least get an appreciation for pierogi and other Polish food, but then be prepared to run 5 miles a day to burn it off!).

I've wanted to go there ever since I learned Bishop Barron was the rector. Of course, now that I might go he leaves for California. But everyone I know who's been there loves it even without him. I also love Poland and Polish culture, so having a few Poles on campus will simply be a plus for me.

As a side note, on my way back to Kansas I had an impromptu ride on a train from Chicago onwards, and it just so happened I ended up meeting a seminarian from Mundelein. We talked the whole way back, and he told me that everyone in their third year there finally gets a class with Barron, which everyone says is really good. However, he left right when he was going to enter into his third year, so he never got the class.
