There were lots of themes from your discussion that came up at the retreat (funny how that Holy Spirit works, isn\u2019t it?) It keep me awake through 5 different Friday rush hours from Everett to Portland. (next time, I will leave Canada at 10 am!!) So I offered a prayer for you as I passed your town and was thankful for your gifts. And Greg Popcak\u2019s too. I\u2019d love to hear more about the charisms thing. That is an area I\u2019d like to explore. Thanks for speaking the truth and loving God. ((I know this politics thing is just consuming right now and you are driving a ton of my TAC friends nuts \u2014- I am glad I am not an American but still I pray for the best result for all since what happens in America has ripple effects on the whole world.)) Pax!<\/p><\/blockquote>\nSorry for driving your friend\u00a0(and others) nuts.\u00a0 I will\u00a0try, yet again,\u00a0to disengage from the political stuff some (though it pretty much dominates the news and therefore my inbox).\u00a0 But I\u2019m glad you like the Power in the Blood set.\u00a0 I\u2019m really happy with how it turned out and hope more people will check it out since looking at the world\u00a0Eucharistically is pretty much the heart and soul of the Faith\u2013and of the universe.\u00a0 Thanks for the endorsement!<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
