Pasta and Penance with Padre

Over the weekend of February 6/7, 2021, Syracuse University, including SU Catholic Chaplain – Our Lady of the Angels Province friar: Fr Gerry Waterman, OFM Conv., welcomed students back to campus to begin the Spring Semester, two weeks later than usual. Returning also was an SU Catholic tradition, begun by students in the Fall Semester, called Pasta and Penance with Padre. After Sunday Mass, one of the students asked if he could bring the pasta. His choice: Strozzapreti (aka priest-choker) pasta. For a little levity, the students decided to dramatize the name of the pasta for the others (at right). They ate like “real” Italians, standing in the kitchen, so as to stay socially distanced (above). Those not participating in Penance after lunch are always on clean-up and dish-duty!
