Sunday Sabbath
Today’s blogpost is meant to continue challenging myself, along with my readers, to take the Sabbath more seriously than we normally do in American society. It is also an experiment to see if there are other bloggers who would like to send the same message, while also linking to other blogs. Eleven years ago I was living in Jerusalem as part of my seminary study and was struck by how s

Today I am happy to be participating again in Elizabeth Esther’s Saturday Evening Blogpost, although we might have to call it the Saturday Morning Blogpost due to my timing this month. I am choosing to share a post from my recent series on the Eucharist. I hope that readers will take a look

7 Quick Takes: Notes on Life and Death
-1- It seems appropriate that this edition of 7 quick takes will focus on life and death. I began the week by celebrating the Feast of All Saints followed shortly by my first funeral of the week, for a man who always showed myself and others how to live the Christian life with his generosity.

There Are No Spectator Seats
Yesterday, I was reminded by my fellow blogger friend Molly of how important it is for each of us to give ourselves fully in the Eucharist each time we gather as the Body of Christ.

Molly’s blogpost yesterday says this beautifully as she reflects upon her own participation in the Divine Liturgy, My faith, my actions, affect everyone. There are times I press forward, playing a part in propelling t

The Eucharistic Prayer: Epiclesis
One of the most fascinating things said by Fr. Gerry Austin at our recent priest retreat concerned the part of the Eucharistic Prayer known as the epiclesis. The new GIRM describes it in this way: Epiclesis: In which, by means of particular invocations, the Church implores the power of the Holy Spirit that the gifts offered by human hands be consecrated, that is, become Christ’s Body and Blood, and that the spotless Victim to be received in Communion be for the salvation of thos
