TQ Fan Mail (excerpt):
Calvin,
Fascinating and compelling work. I hated for it
to end. I cannot wait to see more. I'd be delighted to contribute as one
that joined St. Kateri while it still met in the HS Auditorium while I
was still on active duty with the Army. We left after two years for
France and returned two years later. My wife and daughter were fine with
TQ the first time around, but when we returned the benign experience of
two years in Paris with the Scottish and Irish priests and traditional
French priests made them recoil at TQ's style. It took them about a
month to get back in the frame of mind to appreciate his theology. My
daughter would go on to request TQ to concelebrate her marriage with my
cousin, another Tom and progressive priest.
I
found TQ to be such an extraordinarily human man who, for all his
failings, had a gospel inspired love of God and honest people. You are
capturing that in an intriguing manner that makes one long for the rest
of the story.
TQ invited me to be on
the Adult Education committee. We'd meet at his townhouse and decide
what videos to use for the House Church and between the masses adult
education. One year we made our own video to kick off the program. It
was crude compared to your work, but it captured the enthusiasm we had,
inspired by TQ, for the program. I loved his classes though he
challenged all of us with his multiple digressions and tangential
references. He was the most brilliant theologian I'd ever encountered.
His homilies were equally challenging forcing us to think differently
and go back to scripture or the many other reference books he bought and
passed out to the parishioners.
TQ asked me to
bring communion to the sick and homebound at one point in time. I didn't
realize it, but he did all the visiting himself most of the time. I
think he had a conflict that Sunday. I eventually became the only visitor
after he departed until I recruited and trained other Eucharistic
ministers. We have a thriving program in place now, an enriching
sacramentaly sharing. I can really appreciate the value of TQ's visits
mentioned in the clip. He gave his whole to those in need.
When
he left our parish I led an effort to bring our new pastor on board
with the covenant and the house church program in the hopes of keeping
this non-traditional form of governance alive. We had limited success. I
also attempted to stay engaged in the adult education effort until some
overbearing people on the committee turned me and the other original
member away. Not much later our new pastor, Father Larry Mullaney,
invited me to be his RCIA Coordinator, a position I've held for 12
years. I credit TQ with inspiring my theological curiosity.
