The more I think about it, the more I think that it is in my best interest to delay leaving the Benedictine Oblate Novitiate after a year (which would be 5 days before the wedding). Typically one spends a year as a Novice, to learn about the Oblates and Benedictine spirituality in general. More [...]

While every day is a blessed day; today seems to be a Blessings Overload: 1) My Dad was featured in my Hometown’s newspaper, regarding his 1957 Chevy Bel-Air. It was an awesome article and I’m proud of him. 2) Fr. V wrote back and said that he has no problems meeting with me for [...] Yesterday night G and I had our RE curriculum approved. Praise the Lord, the RE Director really liked it. Unfortunately, my battery died on my laptop before she could finish reading it (all 35+ pages), but she liked what she saw. I’ve emailed her the curriculum so she can finish looking at it. I’m [...] Some people have been shocked by my lack of stress over the wedding, and my lack of a desire for a bridal shower. There’s always three to get married (me, G, and Jesus), and I’m not entirely sure why there’s so much fuss about the bride. After all, I *am* marrying G, not myself.

While I love trains, this part of Montana relies heavily on trains to haul people and agriculture. This results in fifty trains a day going by where [...] G’s family reunion was great. His family is so warm and full of Christ, it’s refreshing to be with them and to be welcomed into the family (well, officially into the family come October 13!). It’s like they have known me forever. I’d never been to the top of the State, but I’m glad [...] I think I am starting to understand silence more, and be less afraid of it. Even as a musician in high school and beyond, rests across the orchestra was awkward and uncomfortable. The sound of dead silence was too much. Someone, sometimes myself; felt compelled to fill in the rest with an early note. [...] From a sermon by St. Alphonsus Liguori: “All holiness and perfection of soul lies in our love for Jesus Christ our God, who is our Redeemer and our supreme good. It is part of the love of God to acquire and to nurture all the virtues which make a man perfect. Has not God [...] |
