The world has lost a great do-er, who saw problems and said, "What can I do to fix this?" He was a powerful force for good in Appalachia.

At one time, I was able to support Msgr. Beiting's Christian Applacian Project. He was such a pioneer in bringing the Gospel and Catholic truths and traditions to Applachia. Because of my knowledge of his work, that was so blessed by God, a former parish, that I had the privilege to pastor, still collects Christmas toys for children in Southeast Kentucky. May God give him the eternal rest and peace that he has so richly earned.
