I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...

"Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything." - Pedro Arrupe

Ending and Beginning

It felt like a lot - giving about 4 hours (including travel time) to Church on a Sunday night.

I went in knowing that this would likely be the last thing I would do before going to bed tonight.


And then, I kind of turned things around in my head: I'm both ending my weekend AND starting my new week with a small faith-sharing group followed by Mass.

What better way to do both of those things - ending and beginning - than by receiving Jesus' most sacred body and blood?

(No need to answer that - it's rhetorical.)
