This past week will always be associated with tragedy in America, as we have commemorated the anniversaries of Waco, Oklahoma City, Columbine, and now, Virginia Tech. (For what it's worth, Adolf Hitler was born on this day in 1889). And yet, to believe that God became man through Christ, is to believe as Saint Paul tells us, that good will, in the end, triumph over evil.
For Virginia Tech alums and friends in the DC area, a special gathering will convene tonight at The Liberty Tavern on Wilson Boulevard in Arlington, Virginia, near the Clarendon Metro Station. Phone 703.465.9360. Call to confirm details.
"So fill to me the parting glass, good night and joy be with you all."
