about the religions of our world. Mr. Mata gets very into his
lectures and likes to make sure his students are engaged.
Oftentimes, Mr. Mata will organize in-class debates and make sure
the students are absorbed in the lesson. The debates got very
heated, due to all the peer ministers voicing their strong opinions.

Fr. Carter and Fr. Vince both take a lot of time to spread the good
news inside the halls of Bishop. by Jack Lorenz and Thomas Hamlet

Interview with Father Vince

Q : W h a t is the m ain reason w h y you do masses at Bishop?
A:The community at Bishop is as much a part of the Church as our parishes. Besides
the wonderful opportunity to receive the Eucharist, it is a chance to learn from the
students about the challenges they face in following Jesus, which is so important since
they are the future of the Church.

Q :D o yo u feel that yo u r messages in the homilies come across w ith the students w ell,
w hy or w hy not?
ArPastors try to meet people "where they are", especially when we preach. 1 try to ask
students afterwards if the Gospel message was clear to them and if the homily really
helped, like how it affects their life and choices now. But, the good new^s is the Holy
Spirit is always working in them, even if my message did not work for them that day.

Q : H o w are masses at Bishop d ifferen t than the masses at IH M ?
A: When we celebrate mass at Bishop, we are worshiping God with classmates and
faculty that w e spend everyday with. So, it's easier to reflect on the Gospel when we are
all going through the same stuff. In a parish on Sunday, we have to try and reach many
different age groups at the same time, which is more challenging. Personally, 1 had
spent many years in high school education, so it always gives me joy to be among the
students, they inspire me.
