[Lucille Chagnon]

An interesting dialogue.  A 60-ish former Capuchin monk who was ordained in
the Wilmington, DE diocese at the end of May (and has been reassigned to our
local parish where he served as a Deacon)  has the simple following quote on
his ordination card:  "He is able to deal patiently with erring sinners, for
he himself is beset by weakness."
