"Rejoice and leap for joy, O my soul, for the divine Spirit is given to you without reserve." ~ Pierre Chastellain
The Jesuit Congress celebrating 400 years of Jesuits in Canada has begun. The participants are excited and it is impressive seeing these men gather to acknowledge their—and our—history. The divine Spirit is at work, giving without reserve.
I have seen former pastors and priests from St. Ignatius Parish, some of whom I had forgotten had been there. These men have a camaraderie that is endearing.
Tonight at our gathering we used the above quote in a responsorial song at evening prayer. The other part of the liturgy that struck me was a song called Brebeuf’s Desire: Lord, make me a servant after your own heart. I am praying that happens this week to me. I want to seek God’s heart this week.
Peace,
Suzanne
