Going to the Origami Convention in NYC


Tomorrow after morning Mass, I am heading off to Manhattan for the annual Origami USA convention! I am really looking forward to it – there is nothing quite like being in a crowd of origami enthusiasts of all ages! I look forward to seeing old friends from past conventions, and making new friends too. I will be teaching a couple of classes this year, for the first time in a rather long time – the last time I taught at a convention must have been 1991…

This means I won’t be posting any homilies until mid-next-week, as I won’t be celebrating public Masses at a parish. Fortunately, I’ll be staying with a community of Franciscans who have a small chapel I can use for my private Masses in either the early morning or late evening.

I’ll share some photos when I get back…

About Fr Matthew Green

Currently parochial vicar at Holy Family Parish, on Cape Ann (serving the churches of St. Ann, St. Joachim, and St. Anthony). I moved to the area in early August '11, and am very happy to be in such a welcoming community and beautiful location! One of my hobbies is photography. You can see my photos on Flickr and buy prints of some of them on Fine Art America. I am a daily contributor to GoodMorningGloucester (GMG for short), a blog by and about the community of Gloucester specifically and Cape Ann in general. The content is diverse, ranging from the beautiful and sublime to the earthy and occasionally offensive. I hope my contributions are of the former kind, not the latter. So, while I cannot endorse all the content that is posted there, I am grateful to Joey (the founder and admin of the blog) for giving me space to make my contribution. I also have my own blog, Perpetual Learner, which mostly includes my homilies and some re-posts from GMG, but also sometimes has other content, such as my personal reflections, videos I like, etc.
