George Weigel – Thanks!

Thanks to all who attended the presentation and book signing Tuesday night. As I’m sure you’re aware (if you weren’t before the evening), George Weigel has been working at the heart of the Church for quiet a while. He has excellent insights into the world from a Catholic point of view. He’s going to be back in town in February, and I’m trying to twist his arm for a return visit. I’m hoping my agreeing to feed him Buccatini all’Amatriciana will be enough!  Stay tuned…

I also want to extend my sincere appreciation to Elio Todano of Elio’s Wine Warehouse (6205 South Miro Street, New Orleans, Louisiana  70125) for donating the wine and parishioner John Rowland of Southern Hospitality Catering (3259 Chippewa Street New Orleans, LA 70115) for donating the cheese. If you’re wondering why we charged for the wine, it’s because we agreed to split George’s plane ticket with a parish in Baton Rouge. We still came up short!
