Where the Davenport Presbyterate and Father Knott meet! 



Doing my thing in Davenport.



Break time between sessions.



Bishop Amos (on left) at break time. 




Get 'em while they are hot! Looking over my books for possible purchase. 



What's a hard day of ongoing formation without cocktails at 5:00?
On the right are Fathers Adams, Father Adams and Father Adams. 
They are all priests and blood brothers. 



Father Ron Hodges (formerly Father Gabriel Hodges OSB) helped me found the Institute for Priests and Presbyterates when we were both there. Here he is holding a copy of the cookbook that we published after he left. It was something that we talked about for a long time. 



Even some priests text during dinner! Somebody tell him to put it away!



Even the Davenport Presbyterate is internationalized!
This priest is from Ghana. I wrote his name down and lost the paper!

CLOSING MASS WITH BISHOP AMOS PRESIDING
