Priestly Ministry at a Music Festival

"What's a good way to reach a lot of young people all at once?

"Plant yourself at an entrance of a popular music festival with a sign, some free stuff, and a smile.

"That's what Catholic priest Fr. David Jenuwine did last weekend, at BottleRock Napa, a three-day music festival with roughly 30,000 in attendance.

His sign read simply: Catholic priest. Blessings, Prayers, Confessions, Answers."

A recent Catholic News Service article reported on Father Jenuwine's ministry at the festival, including the reaction of many festival attendees.
