Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
Change showed up at my door one day. Uninvited. I’m not one for mixing things up. My favorite answer to the question, “What’s new?” is “Nothing.” I don’t believe the only constant in life is change, nor do I think that the more things change the more they stay the same. I’m content with my routine. When I want a little variety, I rearrange the furniture or sit in a different chair. I like predictability. I like plans. I do well with a calendar.

First and foremost, we are celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, the son of God who came to live among us as a man. But John of the Cross fleshed it out for me when he said, “where there is no love, put love and you will draw out love.”
