Blessed Fr John Sullivan, S.J.

The Irish Jesuit Fr John Sullivan, S.J. was beatified in Dublin today.

There is a website dedicated to him here.

The beatification ceremony is on youtube here.  Very novus ordo.  {{sigh}}  And it's very long; say 3 hours plus.  But the homily is worth a listen.  It starts at about the 2 hour and 15 minute mark and lasts a touch  over a quarter of an hour.  (If you want to see the whole thing the first hour and ten minutes consists of a fellow fiddling with the camera and then an hour of colour bars and silence.  So start about 1:10" in.)

He sounds like a good and saintly man who deserves the honors of the altar.
