About Bill Cork
Well if you all don't know by now our own Director of Young Adult & Campus Ministry has finished his last day yesterday and is at his new job. Oh, and he has converted to 7th Day Adventist strain of Christianity. So it has been quite an interesting turn of events (I only came online five minutes ago so I was surprised to see a surge of interest in 'Bill Cork' in my blog).
Anyways, I'm sure this was done with great thought and care and last I spoke with Bill he seemed quite himself. I'm sure he is at peace for now with his decision. We should all give Bill his space for readjustment. The least we can all do is respect his decision and remain his friend as we would with Christ. God works in mysterious ways and we should all trust in Him for the destiny of any one individual. At the same time we should continue in our faith journey as a witness His glory. To pray for Bill and his family as they go through this interesting time of change.
I'm happy for Bill. Of course I will be happier still once he returns to His Church with his family in tow! We all need to trust in the Lord our God. No matter the trials and tribulations that are encircling us, even if the Catholic Church itself is under siege. We must trust in Him for His everlasting redemption.
"And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it." --Gospel of St. Matthew 16:18Again, we should all pray for Bill and his family, he certainly has my prayers today. For my previous posting about Bill Cork click here.

Bill Cork Moving On
Just found out that Bill Cork, Director of Young Adult & Campus Ministry for the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston, will be moving on to greener pastures. After nine (9) years of faithful service to the Archdiocese, Bill will be going to another apostolate on his professional journey. He will be sorely missed, especially by me. Even more so considering that Catholic young adults (singles mostly) are the least tended to in most dioceses.
I’ve had the good fortune of living in many different dioceses across the United States and have been a witness to the different approaches to how the diocese has served their young adult communities. The Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston is by far superior to any diocese I have been a member to. From Café Catholic to Bayou Awakening (and many more), Bill has done a lot of excellent work serving the Catholic young adults and college students throughout the archdiocese. There has also been a spill-over effect that has created a plethora of young adult apostolate’s too numerous to list that can directly or indirectly be credited to Bill’s hard work.
His own blog, Built on a Rock, inspired me to start my own blog!
From the many Catholic young adult’s in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston we thank you for your dedicated service to us. God bless and Godspeed.
