Fr. Charles and I will be leaving on Wednesday, Oct. 25th for Lima, Peru where we will participate in the observation of the 50th Anniversary celebrations of our Carmelite School (Colegio Nuestra Señora del Carmen) in the Miraflores district of Lima. Fr. Charles taught in this school back in the early 1960s and I was President of the school from 1985 to 1999. (If you would like to see the school, it has a great Web page designed by one of the teachers at carmelitas.edu.pe) We are both looking forward to seeing a lot of old friends.

Wow, I forgot all about this blog and as you can see, haven't made a comment in more than three years. In that time, the Fr. Charles referred to in 2006 has been called to the Lord after a long and fruitful life (RIP Dec. 29,2008)
