John During that first year, we conducted 32 neighborhood meetings to get to know people and to listen to their hopes and dreams for St. Philip’s and St. Gabriel’s. Those meet- ings also provided us with an opportunity to share a little bit about our Franciscan charism and what Franciscan life is all about. It was a wonderful time. I have always re- ferred to those first years here as “our Camelot”! When people ask me why I became a Friar, my first re- sponse is that “God called me”. My second answer is, “fraternity”. I was and am drawn to the life of fraternity. For me, living a fraternal life of prayer, community and ser- vice with other like-minded men is a true blessing and makes my life fulfilling and happy. For over thirty years, I have been blessed to live with holy and good brothers who have supported and loved me.

I do not think that I have ever met a person who sincerely enjoys waiting. Yet, we spend a great deal of our lives waiting. Much of that time is spent waiting for mundane things like traffic, doctor’s appointments, laundry, or food.

It is a great question, one that we should all give some thought to. Why is it important that we celebrate the Eucharist each week? How does it fit into our relationship with God and our spiritual life? There are lots of reasons why we celebrate the Eucharist weekly and not just on Easter Sunday.

  • Pope Francis Shows a New Way to Be Pro-Life by Francis X
    JANUARY 17, 2014 VOLUME 48, NUMBER 1 INSIDE: Pages 2-3: Diocese celebrates 90 years of mission work Page 4: Why march for life? Pages 9-12: Catholic Charities’ annual report Pages 19: St. John the Baptist Preschool Marks anniversary Pope Francis Shows a New Way to Be Pro-Life By Francis X. Rocca Catholic News Service On the morning of Jan. 25, 2013, participants in the Washington, D.C., March for Life received an unexpected boost in the form of a Twitter message from Pope Benedict XVI. “I join all those marching for life from afar, and pray that political leaders will protect the unborn and promote a culture of life,” the pope wrote on his account, @Pontifex. This Jan. 22, when marchers on the Mall again protest the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1973 decision legalizing abortion, Pope Francis might very well follow Pope Benedict’s lead by tweeting his sup- port. If he does, those words will be among the relatively few Pope Francis has devoted to the subject. Pope Francis’ decision to talk less than his predecessors about abortion has puzzled and distressed some supporters of the pro- life movement. Yet the pope has made clear his commitment to the defense of unborn life and, thanks to his colossal popularity and gift for communicating across cultural divides, his pontificate could prove a boon to the pro-life cause in enormous and unprecedented ways. The pope’s comparative reticence on abortion became evident to many observers a few months into his pontificate. At a June Vatican Mass dedicated to pro-life causes, an event that had been planned under Pope Benedict, Pope Francis surprised many when delivered a homily without any reference to abortion, euthanasia or any other specific threat to life.
