Good morning to all. Just wanted to take a minute and let everyone know that Tony is in Alaska and should be home the middle of this week. The request is to keep him, his guide and his one remaining hunter in your prayers. They have been beaten up by the weather for a few [...]

Summer Time
Hello Victor! Welcome. Sorry I have been absent, lot’s going on. And I keep waiting for summer and all the wonderful things that go with it. Warm summer nights, sitting in the swing and sipping ice tea. Having early morning coffee outside and listening to the birds. I always feel a certain amount of peace [...]
Bearing His Cross
Christ exorts each of us to take up his cross and follow. I’ve been using that idea to think about my own life and how my personal imperfections constitute “my cross”.

Christ Is Risen
What a glorious day to know Jesus Christ! His Glory was with us at Mass this morning; He lives forever within us and among us. Glory to God in the highest! Peace to His people on Earth!
After the Passion
“Your light my love Is stealing my heart as a secret I’m left like a vanishing form that leaves no shadows Exposed naked alone, between the heavens and the Earth Lifted high on the Cross with the Saviour” Thomas Merton as performed by John Michael Talbot in Pass Through My Will
In The Garden
It is a tradition tonight for Catholics to pray and worship Christ in the Eucharist after a Mass. I knelt in silent prayer and invited God into my heart to say what He would like me to hear. I tried hard not to ask anything, but rather to stay focused on the incredible sacrifice He [...]
