TUESDAYS: This Week is Enough
I’m not the kind of person to run out of things to say. Although, I might struggle for the right words for the right moment. Before Teresa left, I asked, “What if there’s nothing to write about?” Her reply was to simply look back over the week that has been. There will be enough to share.
So, there I was with a mild case of writer’s block when I decided to simply look at the week that had been. It is funny how in life we often look for the big moments when our day-to-day journey is often sufficiently full of rich encounters.
TUESDAYS: Dad Jokes (A Father's Day Reflection)
I love telling dad jokes. He even laughs sometimes.
Tuesdays: Our Pilgrim Church Part 2
With Teresa currently abroad, I have accepted the invitation to write ‘Tuesdays’ over the coming weeks. I am looking forward to the opportunity to journey with you all for this short time. Interestingly, Teresa left off with some thoughts around ‘pilgrimage’ which seems like an appropriate place to pick up the conversation.
From 29th August until 3rd October, ‘Tuesdays’ will be written by our guest contributor, Brendon Mannyx.
TUESDAYS WITH TERESA: Our Pilgrim Church
By the time you receive this message, I will have boarded a plane with my husband Allen as we begin an around-the-world trip over the coming six weeks.
TUESDAYS WITH TERESA: Have courage
Once again it is Sunday evening and after singing at Mass, I have an ear worm that won’t leave me, of the chorus of a hymn we sang at the Preparation of the Gifts:
Do not be afraid, do not be afraid, have courage it is I.
(from the hymn Do Not Be Afraid by Suzanne Toolan rsm).
TUESDAYS WITH TERESA: Peace in our world
Who knows what can happen on high mountains or as we stay on mountain top experiences.
TUESDAYS WITH TERESA: The pressures of Society
Allen and I have just returned home from another trip to the Gold Coast. This time we were present for the Confirmation of one of our granddaughters on Thursday evening, at Mary Mother of Mercy Church, Burleigh Parish.
TUESDAYS WITH TERESA: The Gift of Grandparents
On this cold weekend, we continue to listen to Chapter 13 of the Gospel of Matthew, and his parables about the kingdom of heaven being compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field, and how, during the night, his enemy came and sowed darnel among the wheat.
