To: Mrs. Don-o
St. Francis Borgia

The name of my Parish. I believe that there are only 2 St. Francis Borgia parishes in the US, and I belong to one of them. We have a twinning parish in Uganda that we support -- St. Paul Mukono. Our priest and a delegation of pilgrims just returned from there this week and announced that St. Paul Mukono has just named their new high school which we helped build -- St. Francis Borgia High School in our honor!

I know you didn't need to know all that, but you surprised me by invoking St. Francis Borgia this morning.

That’s cool. Francis was a wonderful saint and I always enjoy discussing him!
