May 12, 1947—June 10, 2022
In the middle of this year’s joyful return to 3-D colloquies, we received word of the passing of Fr. Michael Himes, longtime friend of Collegium, and professor of theology at Boston College. For years, Fr. Himes provided a tour de force overview of the sacramental imagination to Collegium participants: 90 minutes, not a single note, and references to Shakespeare, Aquinas and the Andrews Sisters that had audience members’ heads spinning when they weren’t laughing and scrambling to keep up. If you’d like, you can re-visit his unique take on “Finding God in All Things: The Sacramental Imagination.”
