Something New Is Happening TEN THOUSAND PLACES - April 3, 2013 In the Gospel of this radiant night of the Easter Vigil, we first meet the women who go the tomb of Jesus with spices to anoint his body (cf. Lk 24:1-3). They go to perform an act of compassion, a traditional act of affection and love for a dear departed person, just as we would. They had followed Jesus, they had listened to his words, they had felt understood by him in their dignity and they had accompanied him to the very end, to Calvary and to the moment when he was ...http://frdenis.blogspot.com/2013/04/something-new-is-happening.html

Jesus: The Revelation of Oneness THE WILD REED - March 31, 2013 ... back onto the Jesus whom we read about in the gospel texts. That's how powerful and important the post-resurrection experience was to his friends and disciples. F ull participation in the spirituality of Jesus would have to include some experience of our oneness with the universe. Jesus' extraordinarily profound union with God manifested itself not only in his identification with all human beings, but also in his oneness with nature. Because he lived in a pre-scientific and ...http://thewildreed.blogspot.com/2013/03/jesus-revelation-of-oneness.html

The Good Thief THE GOSPEL TRUTH - March 28, 2013 I don't think I have ever done an Easter reflection for my blog. I mean what can I add to a religious event that has been going on for almost 2000 years? At our Palm Sunday Mass I found it increasingly difficult to stand, such are the ravages of age. So my mind started drifting a bit. When the reader came to the part about Jesus being crucified between two robbers, I got an interesting idea that I want to share with you. Remember some years ago when they ...http://bbprof.wordpress.com/2013/03/28/the-good-thief/

Palm Sunday Reflection-March 24, 2013. Sr. Gladys Guenther, SHF SISTERS OF THE HOLY FAMILY - March 25, 2013 On the first Sunday of Lent , we read in St. Paul's letter to the Romans: "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart — that is, the word of faith that we preach…" That phrase has dwelt with me throughout Lent. Today with two Gospels , one rather long one, we have heard many, many more words, therefore my words will be few. I encourage you, right now to close your eyes and let me guide you through the reading of St. Luke's passion.

Top 10 Reasons Youth Leave the Church Marc5Solas A FRIAR'S LIFE - March 25, 2013 NOTE:This is a really thoughtful reflection on why so many young people leave the Church after high school. The perspective is Evangelical, so I would not agree with some of the points from a Catholic perspective. I think some of our issues might be slightly different, but I think overall, there is a good question here about how well young people are receiving the full message of the Gospel or are instead receiving something light. This comes from the ...http://afriarslife.blogspot.com/2013/03/top-10-reasons-youth-leave-church.html

Quiet, Everyone TEN THOUSAND PLACES - March 24, 2013 The entire Holy Week is a week of tenderness. All through the Gospel, from his birth right up to his death, the Lord exhibits much tenderness, especially in the way he treats the sinner. When the woman taken in adultery is brought to him, (John 8:3-11) Jesus shows great delicacy. It is very delicate to turn your back to a person like that, who is ashamed, write something in the sand, and wait until the last person has left; and then with infinite tenderness and gentleness ...http://frdenis.blogspot.com/2013/03/quiet-everyone.html
