Dear Friends in Christ,

The retreat i've been planning for a while now is about to begin. I will be going incommunicado after this post until Feb 19th.

May i ask, please, for a special prayer as i commence my week of silence with the Lord?

I am seeking, as always, a deeper understanding of God's will in my life.
But also, i hope for a renewal of the fire which motivated me so firmly when i first entered seminary 5 years ago. Ministry is wonderful but very taxing, and lately the flames have been banked low. I need to rekindle the Spirit's love in my heart to serve His people as Christ wants me to.

Many thanks to you all, for prayers and for your inspiring example.
D.Be

prayers !

You have mine, too.

Most definitely!

Yep, I will pray for you.

I wish i could go on a silent retreat for a week.

Prayers.

Thanx 4 your prayers, ev'body! I have returned after a very fruitful time with the Spirit. While there, i was very aware of the graces being obtained by your prayers, and was comforted by the knowledge that you were praying for me.

May God bless and Mary protect,
D.Be
