On the Baltic Sea

Greetings to all.....

The cruise has been wonderful, along with the weather. I am presently in Tallinn, Estonia and had a great excursion on visiting this city that goes back something like 5,000 years. Saturday and Sunday, I was in St. Petersburg, Russia. The Churches are mostly museums. In all this area of the Baltic, from Stockhom, to Helsinki, Russia & now Estonia, very few people actively practice any religion. The Russian guide on Saturday admitted she would probably like to 'try praying,' but no one has ever shown her how.

Tomorrow is a sailing day, with no port stops. Wednesday and Thursday I will be in Copenhaven, finishing the cruise at 4:00 AM on Saturday.

I am checking the prayer line nearly every day and keeping all in my thoughts and prayers.

Peace,

Fr. Steve
