I ask readers to pardon my absence for most of this week. I am leading a youth retreat at a monastery. Your prayers for the youth are much appreciated. And remember this sinner. I’ll be back posting Sunday evening. And my thanks for the prayers.

Father, May your ministry be blessed and these young people strengthened in the Faith.
I will also pray for you and your ministry!
Father,
Don’t forget to have some light-hearted fun too – youngsters keep all of us on our toes. Ah…but as George Bernard Shaw lamented, “Why is youth wasted on the young?” Perhaps by being among them you’ll be energized. 🙂
Oh yes…and prayers will be in order for you and the younguns.
