A Parent's Guide for Vocations eBook through Kindle Store

I was able to get my Parent's Guide for Vocations adapted to the Kindle. I also was able to add a "Look inside" feature, so you can see the Table of Contents, Index, and random pages.

Fifth Sunday of Easter

Christ is the vine, we are the branches. We cannot do anything without Him, and with Him, all things are possible. He prunes us through His word and through showing us the futileness of our deeds apart from Him, so that we may bear greater fruit in Him.

Fourth Sunday of Easter

Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd who lays down His life for the sheep. THis is true in two ways - first, He is incarnate for us, setting aside the rights and glories of His divinity to become human, and second, lays down that even that life on the cross for the redemption of all the world. He confronts the wolf directly, not letting the evil one scatter what His Father has gathered. May we learn to hear the Shepherd's voice, follow that voice, and trust Him with our lives.

A Parent's Guide for Vocations

I am just completing my booklet, A Parent's Guide for Vocations, and uploaded it for self-publishing. Price is set $7, with proceeds to go to provide our seminarian and women religious parents a copy, and anything in excess to the Seminarian Aid Fund of the Diocese of New Ulm.

Third Sunday of Easter

This weekend, we hear St. Luke's account of the first Easter Evening. Cleopas and his companion are in the midst of sharing how Christ revealed Himself to them on the way to Emmaus and was made known in the breaking of bread. Christ suddenly appears to them, and proves to them that He is indeed real by not only asking them to touch Him, but eats in front of them. He removes their doubts, and gives them the task of proclaiming Him to all.
Christ can remove our doubts, too. We can find Him in the Eucharist, and we can ask Him to help us to see Him. Seeing Him, then, let us believe and proclaim Him to all the World.
