James

Fr. James Cuddy, O.P., is a Dominican friar from St. Louis Bertrand Parish in Louisville, KY. He's been a favorite speaker for years, to which anyone who has been to this youth conference in the past would agree. Originally from the Boston area, he's shaken the accent (mostly). He'll be present the entire weekend hearing confessions, and if he behaves himself, we might even let him speak....
