Welcome Frank! You are a wonderfully distinguished addition to our bloggers, and I look forward especially to your reflections on what it means to be Christian in today's muliti-religious world. What is the name of your new book on St. Francis de Sales and Sri Vedanta Desika? James Martin, SJ

Welcome Father Clooney! For those of you who don't know, Fr. Clooney introduced me to Ramakrishna Vedanta my freshman year at BC. His love of interreligious dialogue became a love of mine, leading me to write about the Song of Songs and a mystical Hindu poem for my senior thesis. He is one of the best men I have ever met and i was certainly sad to see him leave BC. I know that he has been welcomed at Harvard and hope he has found his home away from home!

I'd just add that the parish at which Fr. Clooney assists on weekends is constantly edified by his presence, poise, and preaching. We are privileged to count Frank among us as a parishioner and as a presider.

A Homily for the Solemnity of the Ascension, by Father Terrance Klein
Pope Leo XIV's offer to host peace talks between Russia and Ukraine was motivated by a conviction that the two sides must start negotiating and stop the killing, the Vatican secretary of state said.
Rev. Paul Nicholson, S.J., begins his homily for the Ascension with a striking image from Medieval art: Jesus’ feet dangling in the air, his body swallowed by clouds.
