Priest Support Group/Eucharistic Encounters with the Lord

-
I have a funeral and then will be heading down to Lacey for my monthly priest support group gathering. We begin with an hour of Adoration and then we have a check-in and sharing of one significant issue in our lives that we are working on. I look forward to the meetings but not the drive in the car:) Friday traffic is awful around the Tacoma/Olympia area. We usually go out for dinner, so maybe I'll miss some of it. I sure pity all of the people who have long commutes each day.

Someone in our parish sent me an email describing a powerful encounter with the Lord during and after Adoration. I very much enjoy hearing people's Eucharistic encounters with the Lord and I really believe as society moves further away from God, there will be special graces for those who believe.

Have a blessed weekend!

Someone gave me a copy of a great new book by Sherry A. Weddell. It's called "Forming Intentional Disciples — The Path to Knowing And Following Jesus". I highly recommend this book. It gives you a lot to think about and how we need to get back on track with the mission of the Church. Here's a quote from Pope Benedict XVI which is in the book: Faith is above all a personal, intimate encounter with Jesus, and to experience his closeness, his friendship, his love; only in this ways does one learn to know him ever more, and to love and follow him ever more. May this happen to each one of us.

Retreat

I enjoyed the retreat I conducted this past weekend. It was also great to see a few faces from my old parish. I came home and found out that one of the pipes in the church broke during the Spanish Mass. It made a huge mess so we had Mass last night in the gymnasium as well as this morning. I sure hope things will be back up and running for Our Lady of Guadalupe celebration on Thursday. I have recorded the homily and it is available here. Have a great day!
