friendship and inspiration

Sep 16, 2013

This week 180 of NZ’s diocesan priests gather in Rotorua for our third National Assembly. Five and ten years ago we gathered.

Last night’s Powhiri, liturgy and dinner was a wonderful beginning to these days of friendship, rest and inspiration with good input (from Fr. Timothy Radcliffe OP, John Allen Jnr, Cardinal Tom Williams and Msgr Peter Jeffrey).

It is good to be together.

Please keep us in your prayer.

If you saw a burning bush, would you (a) call 911, (b) get the hot dogs, or (c) recognise God?

Love casts out fear. But so do several other things — ignorance, alcohol, passion, presumption, and stupidity.
