    Father,

    I’m sad, this is the second time you are coming to my turf, just minutes away from my home, and I won’t be able to catch you. But depending on how long you are in the area, if you would like to come visit our beautiful Villanova University, a Catholic institution run by the Augustinians, please feel free to shoot me an e-mail. I have several friends there who are big time fans of yours, and I can’t guarantee but I am confident nonetheless that I could arrange for you to preside over a TLM at either our big church or our smaller chapel (I’m afraid the setup of the smaller chapel might make things difficult, but we can figure that out). If you are interested please e-mail me at augustinianheart@gmail.com. I have been contemplating my strategy for getting a TLM instituted on campus, and your presence would certainly be a welcome support.

    For pictures of our campus, including pictures of our church, I’ve posted them very recently at my own blog, here:

    Grace and Peace,
    Michael

    To Michael Hallman:

    Remember this always: “THE HAWK WILL NEVER DIE!!!” (Sorry ’bout shouting, but we gifted ones from St. Joe’s feel that its necessary when speaking to a Wild Cat.)

    Mr. Enright,

    Our Augustinian vocations director is actually a St. Joe’s alum. Fortunately he has seen the error of his ways before it was too late, and now serves the much holier Villanova community and supports our far superior basketball team :-P

    Jesuits do tend to shout more. It’s the only way they can be heard while their heads remain so far up in the clouds :)
