Hello again,
I realized that the URL I sent this morning was indeed for the USA Priory.
Here is one that is maybe better:

I still wish I were in the UK sometimes. I also hope that I can get some
interest going here in the Deep South (if it does not already exist). The
R.C. Cathedrals in both Charleston and Savannah are dedicted to St. John
the Baptist. While I'm now living in Charleston, I have job sites in
Savannah and am down there frequently.
