Thanks Father Al🙏🏻
Great metaphors! Am I a sponge or a rock? I think we should be sponges for the Good News and rocks to the meanness around us.
Hey good to see you.......love your contemplative prayer work and your special way of teaching.

Holy Cow, Fr. AL! I opened a human trafficking presentation tonight by asking the group to sing the first verse of Amazing Grace with me, which they kindly did. I used that because composer John Newton, who wrote that hymn in 1773, had piloted slave ships. The amazing grace of God that allowed him to see human beings as people, not merchandise, is the same grace that is available for us. God is good! All the time!
Thank you! Wonderful video! 👍🏻💗🙏🏻
