An Invitation

“[Silence] is an invitation to understand that every event of the day is a gesture that God directs to us, a sign of the care He has for each one of us. How many times God makes us perceive something of His love!

To have, so to speak, ‘an interior diary’ of this love would be a beautiful and salutary task for our life! [Lent] invites us and stimulates us to contemplate the Lord Who is present.

Should not the certainty of His Presence help us to see the world with different eyes? Should it not help us to see our whole existence as a ‘visit’, as a way in which He can come to us, and be close to us in each situation?

Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI

My vocation as a Lay Dominican created an insatiable desire to learn, study, live and share my Faith. For more than ten years I led a Prison Ministry program and have spent more than a decade promoting Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration. Now retired, I aspire to promote zeal for the salvation of souls, awe and amazement for the Holy Eucharist and Eucharistic Adoration, and fidelity to the Truths of our Catholic Faith.
