Salpointe names new president
Bishop Geral F. Kicanas
Fr. ROBERT CARROLL

Father Robert Carroll, O. Carm., Ph.D., has been named president and head of school at Salpointe Catholic High School.
Father Carroll succeeds Father Fred Tillotson, O.Carm., who left Salpointe last July to become president of the Washington Theological Union in Washington, D.C. In the interim, Kay Sullivan had served as head of school.
“We are thrilled to have a new president at Salpointe with Father Carroll’s depth of experience and commitment to Catholic secondary education,” said Dr. Phil Lacovara, chairman of Salpointe High’s board of directors. “Father Carroll has the ability to take Salpointe to still higher levels of excellence as the school approaches its 60th year.”

Chaplain’s training, faith save a man’s life

Father Martinez

Military chaplains are often credited with saving lives, and most of the time it’s a spiritual life that is saved.
For one Air Guard chaplain, Father Mike Martinez of the Diocese of Tucson, a recent hunting trip turned into a different kind of rescue operation.
When Father (Maj.) Mike went hunting in early November, he didn’t take a deer’s life but instead helped save a human life.
Chaplain Mike was mule deer hunting in the Gallero Mountains, just north of Willcox and west of Safford, with his brother David and his father Ralph. They had an uneventful few days when – as poet Robert Frost might have said – the chaplain took a road less traveled and made all the difference.

Benedicto XVI: “Todos debemos dar
los pasos necesarios hacia la unidad”
ROMA.- (ZENIT.org) Durante la homilía pronunciada durante las vísperas con las que concluyeron la Semana de Oración por la Unidad de los Cristianos, en la Basílica de San Pablo Extramuros, el Papa Benedicto XVI llamó a “todos a dar los pasos necesarios hacia la unidad de los cristianos”.
“El compromiso por la unidad de los cristianos no es sólo tarea de algunos, ni actividad accesoria en la vida de la Iglesia. Cada uno de nosotros está llamado a procurar su aportación para dar los pasos que lleven hacia la comunión plena entre todos los discípulos de Cristo, sin olvidar nunca que ésta es ante todo don de Dios que hay que invocar constantemente.
