Tell 'em, Sister!
Love and Life Site organizer announces my World Youth Day talk

"[R]ock concerts, Celtic fiddlers and dancers, friar bands, an awesome talk show 'Under the Southern Cross,' a screening of 'Bella,' Dawn Eden, World Youth Alliance, [Eucharistic] adoration, a beautiful set design … oh, and, really so much more."

That's the wonderful Sister Mary Karen Toomy of the Sisters of Life, telling a Zenit reporter about the Love and Life Site's World Youth Day 2008 lineup. It sounds like it's going to be terrific, and I am thrilled to be part of it.
