Schillaci's homily was on the passion, death and resurrection of man.

...nuttiness would be welcomed by any school board in the country. In the past 33 years, Mott has pumped $42 million into the public schools of Flint to keep them open evenings, weekends and summers for an improbable array of community activities. This year 92,000 residents of Flint (pop. 200,000), more than half of them adults, have signed up for extra curricular educational, recreational and civic programs in the city's schools.
