Schwab Family Reunion, Bloomer, WI

Today was Rosanne's Schwab family reunion. Her uncle, retired priest Father Frank Ruff, officiated and gave the homily at the family Mass. Always a pleasure to listen to Father Frank. 45 family members were present for the Mass, potluck and reunion. And the rains never showed up. After the reunion, we returned to our friends home and joined in on the block party. (Sorry, no photos of the block party.) I recorded Father Frank's earlier remarks leading into the Mass, along with his homily. Recorded on my iPhone from a short distance away, so I'll apologize for the poor audio. Just turn up your volume and listen carefully. (If you are interested.) Since both clips are more than 20 minutes long, I'll have to upload them to my You Tube Channel. Here are the links. First one is of the first part of the family Mass and Father Frank offering his thoughts on Church Unity: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0F7BhOaRCeU
