   Having this opportunity in the city I grew up in and love has made that choice an even greater honor. I've never taken lightly the responsibility that comes along with serving the great citizens of Louisville, it's my hope and prayer, that moving forward, our city can heal and unite.

He's in tune with the Lord, those close to him say he's up close to 4 in the morning to prepare his daily Mass, which is at 7 in the morning on the weekdays. So that's almost three hours of prayer, preparation and silence before the Lord and the word of God. Wow, that really fine-tunes you to start off a day.
