We were just boys at that time, teen-agers who ardently wanted to be priests . . .As was common practice in the 1940s, candidates for the priesthood were sought in Catholic grade schools and those young teenagers who felt called went off to a Preparatory Seminary and were introduced to a formation that profoundly transformed their lives. Their training was rigorous, but kind and gentle.

72. Prayer of Entreaty ~
When You
kept me
behind
the thin glass
of distance
how did You stand
my repeated
query
as to why
You were abusing
me
so thoroughly?
~
Als Du mich hinter
dem dünnen Glas des Abstands
hieltest
wie hast Du da
mein dauerndes Flehen
nach einem Grund dafür
warum Du mir
eine solche Qual
hast erleiden lassen.
