My name is Fr. Tracy O\u2019Sullivan, O. Carm. My dream late in life is to teach people how to pray. Mature prayer is not about what we want but what an all-loving God wants for us. It is a long journey between our desires and God\u2019s desires. In the end, it is all about true love. Jesus will teach us the way. We learn about Jesus through deep personal prayer. This is what our blog hopes to help you accomplish, walking in love with Jesus.<\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

PENTECOST<\/h5>\t\t\t\t

John 20:19-23 Dear Friends, The feast of Pentecost is the celebration of breaking through the barriers of time and space and opening the whole world to the re-creating wonders of love. In his Passion and Death Jesus confronted evil. This was the climatic encounter of all history. Love won out! All of a sudden, Jesus is in their midst. His message is not vengeance. Amazingly, He does not even point the finger at their cowardly collapse. His trusted disciples were too awe-struck to feel the shame. It was a \u201cwow\u201d moment to the thousandth degree. Jesus had risen as h...<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t

THE FEAST OF THE ASCENSI\u00d3N <\/h5>\t\t\t\t

Mt 28:16-20 Dear Friends, In today\u2019s feast of the Ascension, it is difficult for us to understand the enormity of the Apostles shock. We need a truly profound faith to grow into an honest awareness of the depth of the Apostles\u2019 upheaval and turbulence at Jesus\u2019s departure.First of all, they are on their own. They had little organization and less clarity on their mission. No matter the beauty of Jesus\u2019s comforting final words, their mentor, teacher, guide and support for three intense years was gone. Try to imagine how alarming and distressful was the message of...<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t
