Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Last month Sebastien, who is a freshman at Belmont Abbey College, received an invitation from the president to accompany him, along with thirteen other students, to appear on Life on the Rock (EWTN) on March 1st. He was exited about the proposition and had a wonderful time last week despite the tornadoes. They visited the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament at Our Lady of the Angels Monastery, as well as four other monasteries and convents.

Right before the show, four students were informed that they would be asked questions. Talk about being put on the spot! Sebastien wasn’t one of them but you can see him in the first part of the show sitting on the left of F. Francis, and in the second part of the show on the left of Dr.Thierfelder.

If you read Thierfelder's bio you will understand Dr. Thierfelder’s emphasis on sports. It is a topic close to his heart.

The show can be seen online at http://play.rbn.com/?url=ewtn/g2ewtn/g2demand/smil/rock.rm&p roto=rtsp.

I actually watched part of it the other day. I didn't know your son was on it so I will watch again and look for him.

I lvoed what he had to say about sports. They are important in the lives of many. They can help in ones journey in life and in Christ.
