Who is Flat Stanley?
Flat Stanley is the main character in the Book, Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown. In the story, Flat Stanley was flattened by a bulletin board. Although he was not hurt, he was flattened.
Gabriella Carrizales, daughter of David and Rae Ann Carrizales from our parish, is a student at St. Ignatius Martyr School. She has named Stanley Andrew Carrizales and prepared him to go to Rome with Father John, as he goes for the general chapter for the Congregation of Holy Cross.
Who knows what adventures await Flat Stanley and Father John? Check these pages for the latest updates. Some days might be pretty dull--they do have to do some work in Rome--that was the reason for going!! But there might also be some interesting events along the way or while they are in Rome.
There will be other Holy Cross people there. Brother Donald, the provincial of the South-West Province; Brother Patrick, who is dean of students at San Juan Diego Prep in Austin; Father Pete Logsdon, the pastor of La Luz Parish in Monterrey; Brother Richard Critz who had been provincial of the South-West Province. And, of course, Father John. But then none of them are flat like Stanley!
