This profile of retiring octogenarian priest Fr. John Flynn is nice.
And in the New York Times, no less!

Some 15,000 priests from 91 countries celebrated the close of the Year of the Priest with a conference on priesthood in Rome the past few days.

This morning the largest concelebration in Rome’s history (and probably ever) took place.

Children Can Celebrate Year of the Priest
Posted by Danielle Bean in Faith on Friday, August 14, 2009
Rachel Watkins, the fab mom who brought us Little Flowers Girls Clubs, has put together a new resource for Catholic families celebrating the Year of the Priest.
Says Rachel: “This new activity sheet is available as an absolutely free download to any family looking for concrete ways in which to celebrate this great year. It gives ideas for families, clubs, or individuals to celebrate this wonderful year and includes an opportunity to award certificates of completion and/or medals if desired.”
Read more about it and get the free download at the Ecce Homo Press website.
And while your family is learning about and praying for our priests this year, don’t forget to take advantage of the opportunity for a Plenary Indulgence during the Year of the Priest. Go get some graces!
