Catholic Order Jolted by Reports That Its Founder Led a Double Life.
Shocking news at Amy Welborn‘s blog–her husband, Michael Dubruiel, collapsed and died this morning at the gym. Please pray for Amy and her children. This news hit me very hard. I had to go back and read her blog several times to believe it true. I’ve only met each of them once–Michael at the NCCE…
