Know of my personal prayers this coming week, as I'll be on my annual silent retreat with my theology class from the North American College, just outside Rome near Castel Gandolfo the pope's summer residence. This year's retreat is geared towards Christ's identity, and becoming ever surer in our vocational call to priesthood since our deaconate ordination is under 24 months away. We will have two sessions each day where our spiritual director will give us a couple passages to reflect on and maybe some questions to discern. The rest is in our ballpark to grow in self-knowledge and relationship with Christ. There is still much formation and preparation to be done as the countdown clock tics, if we are to reverence the institution of the priesthood by already having become new saintly men.
P.S. I've begun preparing a website to be able to show more pictures, provide better links in a more orderly fashion, and to cut my prep-time for blogs in half. I keep you posted on the progress....
