RITE OF CHRISTIAN

INITIATION OF ADULTS

(R.C.I.A.):

We welcome any adult interested in

learning about the Catholic faith to call the

parish office for information and an

appointment. Formal classes begin in

September and conclude in May.

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION:

Monday, 2:00−4:00 p.m. (Chapel of the

Holy Family)

ROSARY:

Recited each weekday at 8:00 a.m. before

Mass.

Retreat, actually. I will be away this week on retreat. My friend, the

Code of Canon Law, states that clerics, “are equally bound to make

time for spiritual retreats according to the prescripts of particular

law” (Can. 276 §2, 4). The diocese expects a priest to make a yearly

retreat.

Retreat time is not meant to be a “get away from it all” time; it is

meant to be a “get together with God” time. A retreat for a priest is

an expression of the Latin phrase, Nemo dat quod non habet (no one

gives what he does not have). The retreat is meant to be a time for

the priest to be strengthened and renewed so he can serve his people

and the Church better.

I do encourage everyone to take some time for a retreat. Some people

can’t take off a week and head off to a retreat house. If you can,

great! Go! If not, maybe take a day off or an evening a month or an

hour a week to spend on your relationship with God. Turn off the TV

radio, and phone. Enter into some silence. I read a quote from

Trappist Father Thomas Keating, who died recently, “Silence is God’s

first language. Everything else is translation.” Silence helps us to

hear God directly.

I ask for your prayers as I make this retreat from Monday night until

Friday morning. Pray for me, that I may be strengthened and enriched

to serve Holy Spirit Parish and the Church better.

See you next weekend!
