so excited...

"We are not called to be successful; we are called to be faithful." - Mother Teresa
(quoted by lead actor of
Bella Eduardo Verastegui as he explains his mission in life)
Tomorrow night I am going to see "Bella" with some of my classmates. I am so excited!! My friend Ryan (who always has an amazing way with words) saw the movie a few weeks ago in Denver & wrote a great little review about it. I know this is about the third time I've written about this movie in the past 5 days, but I am just so excited to see it. (Can you tell??)

I especially love the story he found about how the movie came to be. Check out the story behind the movie. It's incredible story, a powerful testimony and proof of a favorite quote of mine that hangs on the wall at the Newman Center chapel here in Pittsburgh & that I read as often as possible...
"Cast yourself into the arms of God and be very sure that if He wants anything of you, He will fit you for the work and give you strength."
-St Philip Neri
