Mass this morning at the St. Maria Goretti Chapel at the Serenelli Project was quite the blessing. Presiding was the new Archbishop of Cincinnati, Robert Casey. We’re quite grateful the new archbishop took time to come say Mass in the tiny chapel for a dozen or so of us volunteers at the Serenelli Project.
Archbishop Casey also joined us for breakfast afterward, sharing for us his training regimen for the first pitch he will throw at an upcoming Reds game (he wasn’t the ballplayer in the Casey household, he admitted) and other bits of information on his life before arriving in Cincinnati. Based on his conversation with me and others, I think we’ve been blessed with a wonderful new shepherd of our archdiocese.
