Amado,

I haven't discussed this with Fr. Loya much. I do know that at least some of the liturgies were given for the entire community. I don't think that he has invited Peoria to attend the liturgy at Champaign. Perhaps I can alert him to the question.

Thanks for all of the helpful information. There is not a very strong Eastern Catholic presence at the Newman Center. I think I am the only one here now that my sister in an RA in another dorm. In fact, one of the first Sundays I went to the Latin Rite Liturgy and the Priest said in his homily that he was proud the St John's Catholic Church/Center was 100%(drumroll please) Roman Catholic. Yeah, needless to say I was a little mift. I really wish they would sponsor something where Newman kids could get together with Eastern Christian kids and talk and stuff. Fr Tom does come down once a year. Does anyone know how long it takes to get from Champaign to Peoria?

Down I-74 It's about 95 miles and would take around 1 1/2 hours to drive. It seems close enough to suggest it.
