Apostolic Zeal

One of the friars who lives here, who was born during the First World War and completed his formation in the Order during the Second, has transferred to another community in order to find more work and excitement.

May the Lord help us all to accept the grace of such zeal!

And he's not even the oldest one we have here in the "monastery." The oldest was born the same week that the Red Sox last defeated the Giants in the World Series.

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.

I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.

If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
