Fr. Michael J. Himes (1947鈥�2022) was a diocesan priest from Brooklyn, New York, a 蝌蚪直播 theologian, and a faculty member at Boston College for almost three decades. His life and work continue to inspire countless students, colleagues, and people across the world. We hope to honor his legacy by sharing his words of wisdom through not only his writing, but also his recorded conversations with the Boston College community.听
