My folks live on the GA coast in a very small town - we go to the Episcopal church with them on Sunday morning while we're down there (so as not to make family waves), and the little Catholic mission in town has its services at about the same time. So we go to Saturday vigil Mass or Sunday evening Mass down in Brunswick, at St Francis Xavier. You'd think with a name like that there would be Jesuits around, but it's run by Franciscans.

Guess who was standing there when we walked in?

The great Portuguese saint, mistaken for Italian, doing his great work for the Lord in Pakistan -- this story brightens me all about.
