Away from Blog until September 1

Just a reminder that I am away and will not be writing reflections until September 1. Please remember to pray for my retreat, August 15-24.

I begin with a meeting at the University of San Diego and we were asked to think of the "gold we hold in a fungus cup" - the image is from Mother Stuart and the fungus cup is me and the gold is God's giftedness to me. We were asked to write a letter and really name the gold we have been for others, the gold we are, and the gold we want to be. I have not yet done this but love the idea of going back again to see how God has been gifting me so that I can do some good in the world; the hardest part is looking to see what I am doing in the present for others.

St. Ignatius of Loyola's feast is July 31!
