Advent: Incarnating Love
I think my favorite line in any Christmas carol is “Fall on your knees!” That’s from “O Holy Night,” a French carol written in 1847. The song can be profoundly prayerful for us whether we are from the most traditional or the most avant-garde strains of spirituality. The essence is profound awe at the love of God.
Reflexión sobre el Día de la Fundación
A mediados de octubre celebramos el Día de la Fundación, y recordamos a las personas valientes quienes fundaron nuestra comunidad en Le Puy. El Padre Médaille viajó a donde no se permitía viajar a Jesuitas, reunió a un grupo de mujeres y les ayudó a formar una congregación religiosa.
Reflecting on Founders Day
In the middle of October, we celebrate Founders’ Day, memorializing the eight courageous pioneers who created our community in Le Puy, France. Father Médaille went where Jesuits were not allowed to go, gathering a group of women and helping them become a formal religious congregation.
¡Nunca dejen de aprender!
¿Cómo sería si todas nosotras celebráramos este Mes de Historia Negra, el cual nos recuerda que siempre hay más para aprender y gozar de la rica diversidad del Cuerpo de Cristo?
Never Stop Learning!
What would it be like if all of us celebrated this Black History Month as a reminder that there is always more to learn and enjoy from the rich diversity of the Body of Christ?
