  1. Great Podcast father! Who knew the Vatican published the first cookbook. Keep up the good work and God Bless you and your students.

  2. I never realized there was a true-life connection to the old nursery rhyme! “Sing a song of sixpence, a pocket full of rye; four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie; when the pie was open the birds began to sing; wasn’t that a dainty dish to set before the king?…”

    Thanks for your podcasts, Fr. Seraphim. I hope the beginning of the new academic year is going well!
