May the Lord give you His Peace!
(The greeting of St. Francis)
So here we go...
I have been thinking about doing this for a while.
Many people have been asking for it so hopefully that is a sign that it is needed, or at least wanted.
Mostly I am a "facebook friar", (also an occasional Twitter-er and Instagrammer), however most of those formats work best with short form posts that tend to be reactive, ie someone posts something, you in turn post something else in response...and so on and so forth...
What is often missing is space to be a little more reflective... (a little more mindful even)... that would allow longer form postings that may invite me into deeper reflectivity and that may invite you into the same... should you choose to join me here occasionally...
Hopefully the blog will prove to be a space for reflecting, for sharing insights and wisdom gathered along the way and maybe even a smile or two...My hope is that it will also be a window into the Christian Contemplative Tradition, particularly as practiced in the Capuchin Franciscan way... a way of openess, depth, beauty and joy... and a place where everyone, (regardless of their tradition and belief systems) will be respectfully welcomed and listened to...
Anyway, welcome aboard...
Oh, and please excuse the state of the place... still decorating...
(just moved in... you know how it is...)
