I don't know where they're going.  I think they're going to end up somewhere in a developing country.  He's a cool guy.  Very sincere.  Super intense about the faith.  I first met him when I was 15.  I was ran into him when I had a copy of some of Aquinas's works.

 

Farris--What are you reading there?

Me--Aquinas *hands him book*

Farris-- *stares at me intensely for like 10 seconds* St. Augustine said that it's easier to read an entire library than the live a single beatitude *hands book back, walks into Church*

 

He's friends with Righteous B and Chris Padgett.  

 

Drinks a lot of Mountain Dew.  

 

He also managed to convince like half of the group of 100 or so teens he took on mission to get up at like 5am (after going to bed at 12 or 1) to pray the rosary at the Passionist Monastery we dtayed at.

Ah, how I miss drinking Mountain Dew.

 

I will pray for the success of their mission.

You no longer do the Dew?

Nope. I had to give it up because the caffeine brought on migraines.

Yeah, he's a pretty cool guy.  He and Judge Blick kept me on the straight and narrow for a long while.  A lot of what they said still reverberates.  Although they wouldn't recognize that if they know what I was involved in these days.  Anyway, I'm sure he'd appreciate any help, money, prayers, well wishes, you all could give them.
