Dear Monsignor Morris:
The St Luke Productions at the Christ Cathedral in California needs your exceptional skills for the role of Father Augustus Tolton!!!
Last November 2015, I attended a retreat where you were the presenter. I remember you mentioned that you performed and taught acting; specifically Shakespeare.
If so, then, the Crystal Cathedral’s St Luke Productions desperately needs your awesome oratory and acting skills in the drama of Father Augustus Tolton!!!
I truly believe you are the answer to the people’s prayers to honor this great man in Catholic American history.
