Today, January 15th...
is the feast of St. Macarius of Egypt.
Also, on this date back in 1994, Fr. David Abernethy of the Pittsburgh Oratory was ordained to the priesthood. Ad multos annos, Fr. David !
Fr. David's ordination day was especially memorable because it was probably the coldest day I've ever experienced in my life. The Cathedral's heating isn't great at the best of times, and when it's 14 below zero outside (real temperature, not 'wind chill' )... well, let's just say that everybody who could kept on their coats and their boots ! And that marble floor must have been freezing.....
Prayers for Fr. David would be appreciated, and also prayers for Fr. Bryan, whose father is in the hospital with a serious illness.
