I enjoyed reading your blog . I was in more shock to find out my son is pictured with you at the St. Anthonys feast. I found out about the picture through his school. The pronciple called to tell me CJ was pictured with you. When I saw the picture I was so happy. We were so touched. Thank you for taking the time to have a picture with our son.

I found this weeks blog very facinating. I really enjoyed learning about the incardination of Father Ken Cannon. The pictures of it were awesome. I also enjoyed learning about the Mass at the Pastoral Center. The Miracle of Video was really good too. I can’t wait until next week’s blog!

I was very fascinated by this weeks blog. The Emmanuel College chapel is beautiful. I wish I could attend Mass there.
I think it is amazing how many consultations they conducted at the Por Cristo Nutrition and Health Center in Ecuador. Those projects help many people in need and its great how people will reach out a hand and do a good thing for a stranger.

I was also very happy when I heard about the nwes of the Pope’s visit to Jordan to meet with the Christians who were displaced because of the fighting and conflict. I am glad that the visit is bringing attention to the great number of people who are driven out of their homes because of conflicts.

I also watched the video on abortion and pro-life and believe that people should not kill babies. I hope that whoever is thinking about abortion will read this blog and change their minds.

Your blog this week was very interesting. The procession must have been beautiful. I have never seen a colorful pattern like that made out of saw dust. I wish I could have seen it up close!

Hope you can come and visit us soon!

It’s inspiring to read about the undoubtedly busy life you lead.

The Ecce Homo statue reminds me of a similar statue I’ve seen in a hermitage in my diocese in the Netherlands. It’s Christ at His most human and thus so very near to us at that moment. I always find it very confrontational to see Him like that, but in a good way.

May God keep and bless you,

Mark

My name is John Lamb and I attend St. Paul School in Hingham. I was reading your blog and came across the video on The Miracle of Life. It was very moving and made me realize how wrong it is to deprive a child of its life. Its intresting to find out that a baby can dream even before they are born. I really enjoy your blog and wish you all the best.

This week I loved reading about the Feast of the “Santo Cristo dos Milagres.” It was so interesting! Especially the part about the colored saw dust! Before I read and I just looked at the pictures, I really did think it was a carpet! We should have a Feast of the “Santo Cristo dos Milagres.”! It be so much fun!

Until next post,

I was also very happy about Pope Benedict’s trip to Jordan. His trip their has brought attention to the many Christians who have been moved because of conflicts.

I watched the video of abortion and I was very inspired. I am pro-life and believe that abortion is very wrong. I hope this blog will reach out to people who are thinking about abortion and change their minds.

I really enjoy all of your blogs! It is very interesting and unique how they mark the path of the procession for the Feast of the “Santo Cristo dos Milagre” by using colored saw dust, that is poured into forms.

I hope that you visit us soon!

Wow, you had an eventful week!

As you welcome a new priest, we say goodbye to an old one at our school. Father Chris has been with us for three years, since he was first ordained I believe. He was a wonderful addition to our school, and we were sad to see him leave at his “Goodbye Mass” today, to go to Washington, D.C. where he will now be staying. He will come back to visit, but I think that everyone was sad to see him go.

I appreciate how everyone is trying to figure how to help immigrants to get a Catholic education. It is important, as Catholics, to help others and educate them about God.

That’s wonderful about meeting with the pro-life directors. Abortion is so wrong, and we need to put a stop to this murder of innocent people. I think that the three beliefs expressed in the booklet are an excellent way to do so.

Thank you for another amazing blog! God bless!

The video on The Miracle of Life was very moving. I also liked the pictures of the feast of the Santo Cristo dos Milagres. I thought the way the carpet was made was really cool.

I enjoyed your blog this week! I think pro-life is very important. I believe that it is unfair to harm a persons life when they cannot even stand up for themselves. It would be great it people could try to spread awareness about the pro-life cause to try to prevent more people from killing those who cannot defend themselves.

Sincerely,
Jenna

P.S. Please come to St. Paul School in Hingham soon!

I thought the video about the life of a baby from the moment of conception was very moving. God does have a plan for all life. He doesn’t make junk! God loves and cherishes everyone, including unborn babies. This brings us to the topic of love your neighbor. It means more than just being nice to the person next door. It means showing compassion to all of God’s creations because Jesus is in everyone of them.

Thank you for doing this. As someone who just did a presentation about faith and social media for a catechetical event, I had your blog very much in mind.

As I have said many times in my own writings about being present on the internet… there is no substitute for “real presence” but the gifts of faith sharing and evangelizing that can happen out here are tremendous.

Thanks be to God!

I enjoy your blog. Your insightful way of presenting your weekly journal is a wonderful opportunity for me to use your thoughts as the basis for my own theological reflection. Thank you.

I noticed in the pictures that the suspended pyx is not above the Altar. What happened? Is the pyx not a fixture in the chapel?

Peace and all good!

Stan
