These are the reflections of a Secular Franciscan. I look not only at my own spiritual journey, but also at issues of life, economic and social justice, morality, the arts, and more through the lens of Franciscan Spirituality.

Pray for peace - and life
Since last I wrote, school has started, and my laptop came out of the repair shop - and went right back in for the same problem.
I'm writing this on wheezer, our old desktop computer. It's making noises at me right now.
Today men's group began - followed by Mass. At Mass, the homily focused on the Pope's call for prayer for peace in Syria and around the world. We also said a prayer for peace.
I then went to a perpetual adoration chapel to say a Rosary for peace and life. I say that not to brag, but to point out that there are people like me in my region and across the world praying today. I salute them - and thank the Pope for making this call.
I just wish our government would listen.
Pax et bonum
