#DioCgc13 Thursday night arrival

We arrived Thursday afternoon & checked in to the Long Beach Resort here in Panama City. The Opening Mass was wonderful & I got to see several of my friends, many whom  have not seen since #DioCG12.

The Holy Nativity { Panama City} Childrens' Choir sang two songs including the Lords' Prayer at the Communion on Thursday evening. The Visiting Bishop for the Convention is the Right Reverend Pierre W Whalen,

I saw many friends from around the diocese. both clergy & laity last night before & after the opening Mass.

    Part of my duties last night was to take the " official clergy photo" for the Diocese.
