Lord

The heart of the Christian community is our Triune Lord: Father, Son, Holy Spirit. Geography, history, and numbers are not the heart, but probably I will type mostly on these topics. As the internet already provides many encouraging spiritual guides and discouraging contentious forums, I intend to offer neither.

From Valley Stream to Boston

The large archdiocese of Boston will receive a new archbishop in October, namely Rev. Richard Henning, native of Valley Stream and Holy Name of Jesus parish.

The cathedral is close to downtown Boston, at 1400 Washington Street. (Careful! Boston has several Washington Streets!)

The four-storey chancery in the south suburb of Braintree was a 2007 acquisition. The donor, Tom Flatley, charged the archdiocese $100 for the sale! In my opinion, the location is good only for those who have the use of a car. The nearest T station is more than two miles away. Yet, I admire the gift. It is about ten miles south of the cathedral.
