So, this past weekend involved a cancelled road trip with J to see D and go to the Greek Fest there replaced by a trip with J to mass at a parish I hadn’t been to before followed by a Greek Fest here in town. I could say a lot of critique-y things about the [...]

School’s out until July and with my scheduled surgery (now cancelled) this week and “vacation” at the end of June, I’m off the EV schedule for June. Also, youth group is out for the summer. I’m not sure what to do with myself! Usually at this point on Sunday evening I’m avoiding the prospect of [...]

We who are many are one, because we all share one bread, one cup. – Prayer for the Sending forth of a Eucharistic Visitor Among our various churches, communities, denominations, and traditions we are all one in Christ, but what if some of the body doesn’t recognize the oneness? True, not all churches use only [...]

“…there’s a design… to what I did and said.” – Vito’s Ordination Song, Sufjan Stevens I can’t remember how I originally found this song, if it was from Jared Cramer (before he was Jared+, which gives me hope that maybe there is hope for such as I) or if it was a late-night Wikipedia binge, [...]
what IS the eighth sacrament?

I’ve been getting a lot of hits getting at the question of “What is the 8th Sacrament?” I guess I’m going to tackle this one on this third Sunday of Lent. Truly, it depends on who you ask. Our wise and wonderful rector considers footwashing as the eighth sacrament. It was an act of service [...]

One of my kids at school relates a lot of things to faith and God. Not surprisingly, as she is a PK. Today, we had this exchange: (child hands me purple game piece) me: Oh thank you! How did you know I wanted a purple one? kid: God told me your favorite color is purple. [...]

I’m out sick again today, kids. If I lay still, try not to move, don’t breathe, and avoid swallowing I don’t feel that bad. If I do any of the previously mentioned, I feel like screaming. All that said, I really am glad that this is strep and not a flare-up of mono; at least [...]

I have had one of those lives that can make even experienced therapists and psychiatrists’ jaws drop. And believe me, for I have seen my fair share of them. I’m not about to get into any fights about whose life has been the worst. I think each person has a life which is in some [...]
questions, questions, so full of questions

I beg you… to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the [...]
