More good news! Looks like the good bishop is set to speak at an annual benefit dinner that funds a scholarship established in Terri Schiavo Schindler's honor. The scholarship is exclusively for students attending Ave Maria University. From the Naples News:
My Jesus Mercy Ministries will host a benefit dinner for Ave Maria University’s pre-theologate program on Feb. 5 at St. Raphael’s Parish Hall in Lehigh Acres. The dinner will be held in memory of Terri Schiavo, the St. Petersburg woman who died in 2005 after a high-profile battle between her husband and parents about removing her from life support. The dinner costs $40 to attend with proceeds going toward a scholarship program in Schiavo’s name at Ave Maria for those interested in a priestly vocation. Religious art and books will be available as well with a portion of the sales going toward the scholarship fund. The dinner will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. Diocese of Venice Bishop Frank Dewane will serve as the event’s guest speaker.Amen. Don't be surprised when you see more great news about the cooperation between the bishop and AMU - who clearly play for the same team!
