Msgr. Foy shares his more than a century of Christmas wisdom

Msgr. Vincent Foy cuts the cake for his 100th birthday celebration with Cardinal Thomas Collins sharing the moment.

God-willing, this will be my 102nd Christmas on Earth (if you count the one when I was an unborn child) and my 77th Christmas as a priest.

Msgr. Foy knew what was at stake

Msgr. Vincent Foy, who is celebrating 75 years as a priest, foresaw that the emperor of the sexual revolution had no clothes.

Last week I wrote about ordination of a friend for the Archdiocese of Kingston. Priestly ordinations are joyful occasions. They are not as common as they should be, but they are not rare. This coming Saturday something truly rare will be celebrated when Msgr. Vincent Foy will celebrate the 75th anniversary of his priestly ordination, which took place on June 3, 1939.

Msgr. Foy was pro-life before there was pro-life

Msgr. Vincent Foy in his 99th year is celebrating 75 years as a priest.
