Great to see Father Les

Was proud to see the long-time coming article on the ministry of one of Glenmary’s Greats, Father Les Schmidt (In the Footsteps of a Saint, Winter 2018)! The writing and photography of John Feister sure kicks The Challenge up a notch or two. Hope we’ll be seeing a lot more from him in the future.

Encouraged + Inspired

I was overjoyed to read John Feister's article In the Footsteps of a Saint (Winter 2018). I met Father Les Schmidt a number of years ago at a conference on religion and peacemaking in Montezuma, N.M. I was so impressed by his unflagging spirit, his energy and his limitless dedication. Father Les introduced me to Glenmary, and led me to begin to contribute in my own small way. It was wonderful to see evidence that Father Les still has that energy, joy and commitment. I believe Father Les has walked "in the footsteps of a saint" all his life!

Loved the 3 Wise Missioners

Thanks for sharing Christmas memories of three special priests (Winter 2018) who show what a life dedicated to mission looks like.
