SEEK 2024 Reflections
The SEEK24 Conference sponsored by FOCUS in St. Louis January 1-5, 2024 was another inspiring event. This was my ninth SEEK conference, with seven experiences of the collegiate track, and two experiences of the parish track called “Making Missionary Disciples”.
Reflections on August 2023 Retreat
I start my annual retreat on Sunday August 6th, ending Friday August 11th. Every year the Church asks all priests to make at least a 5 day retreat, with time of prayer, spiritual talk, and reflection. In the past years of priestly ministry, I have found this annual priestly retreat to be an invaluable source of spiritual nourishment that is so much more than a trip or a break, but a time of encounter and deepening friendship with the Lord Jesus, often in silence.
