"The heavens are telling the glory of God, and all creation is shouting for joy." What a magnificent weekend we had at SFA, celebrating our patron saint with soccer in the sunshine, music and dance at church, and wonderful fellowship, including 26 alumni who returned for the annual soccer reunion game. My favorite moment this weekend happened at the Pet Blessing in Herring Run Park. With over 100 people (and nearly as many pets) gathered boisterously for the ceremony, Fr. Burke began by mentioning that Franco, the 13-year-old parish dog, had declined to attend this year -- and just at that moment, Franco came bounding down the hill on the end of his leash, having been persuaded by some of our young graduates to come out after all. It's kind of hard to tell whether a dog is smiling, but I suspect that Franco had some sort of a joyous grin on his face at that moment. Thank you to all who were able to join us this weekend!
