What a summer it has been, another one gone bye. I am able to say that I truly did enjoy it, even though, it seems that summer after summer they dissipate even faster than before!
This summer I took part in the Diocese of Rapid City ministry known as Duc In Altum, translated "Put out into the Deep." This was compelled of two teams of four-five guys and girls who have been living out their Catholic faith. Some of the men are seminarians, while the rest of us are college students. We went from Parish to Parish each week to teach Catechises to the children. It was a great adventure, one that I will never forget.
I was also able to go to my friend Jen Binger's (now Burton) wedding. Wow, what a beautiful Bride and handsome Groom. This part of one's life is one to be cherished. To be a witness to their love for one another can be purely seen on a day like that. Congrats to you both and may the road ahead be blessed.
To end the summer I was able to go on an adventure to the amazing state of Montana. Montana you took my heart... OK kinda sappy, but I can't express enough of how amazing the Big Sky state can take your breathe away. As I drove down the south part of Glacier National Park on Hwy. 2 and into the flatend prairies on the other end, I could not help but think of what God's beauty is like.... As I looked out of my window that was splattered with a magnificent platter of bug juices, the Mountains peaked with pride. A pride that one can justify, for as they cast their shadow upon the plains below, they stand firm with no sign of losing their majestic country. The Sky is eaten by the saw toothed canvas left in the horizon; peaks jutting randomly with no perfection; Natures skyscrapers. Needing nothing more to impress the human eye. Montana took my heart away. Until then my body remains with a Big Sky High with drawl. What a summer is was, one to never forget.

Hey, what about that most amazing weekend spent with 58 of your nearest and dearest? Can't you wax poetic about us?
