Father Fessio is a good man -- my parents do a lot of work for him. And Ave Maria University is probably shaping up to be a great place to get an honest-to-goodness Catholic education.

Zactly. My folks know him and feel the same about him and Ave Maria. One of the few Catholic colleges left where you can get a Catholic education.

I'm actually a graduate theology student down here at Ave Maria...I was standing a couple feet from him in the cafeteria when Ratzinger came out on the balcony. A very emotional moment for him.

I don't think Fr. Fessio has had a moment's rest the last three weeks.
