Thankfully the Thank You notes are seemingly at an end...
While notes of Congratulations and gifts/benefactions for vestments continue to trickle in, it seems that the overwhelming task of writing and sending hundreds of Thank You notes is really not insurmountable after all.
Thanking all those who wrote, called or prayed for me on the occasion of my Jubilee was a daunting task and I sincerely hope that no one has been overlooked for I am deeply grateful to each of you. I must trust that all know my gratitude beyond my power to express it.
Benedictions,
Father Ananias, O.S.B.
