A Message from Fr Brad
I am writing to you all just a few days before a group of Holy Trinity and Emmanuel parishioners get to travel to the Holy Land. We will be gone from the 15th through the 26th (while I am away, Fr. Christopher will be at our services and take call).
I have been reflecting on my last trip (which was in 1997) and am excited to fill in the gaps that my memory has about that trip. What I do remember about the trip in 1997 is that it took my understanding of many things to a much different level. The way I would describe this difference is the difference between watching television in black and white and watching it in color. The essence is the same, but one is more enhanced. I will look forward to sharing with you all my thoughts after returning back.
In the meantime, I want to say Happy New Year and may this season bring deep joy and peace.

GROUP SPIRITUAL DIRECTION

It is because one antelope will
blow the dust from the other's eye that the two antelopes walk together."
African Proverb
"The one is many and the many are one. To be is to inter-be. We cannot just be by ourselves alone. We have to inter-be with every other thing."
Thich Nhat Hahn
"Driven by the forces of love, the fragments of the world seek each other so that the world may come into being."
Teilhard de Chardin
"Spiritual Direction is one person helping another to notice the direction of spiritual movement in their own life."
Thomas Merton
