My Traces Articles, “Contemplate and Share the Fruit”
As many of the readers of this blog know, for the past several years I have been very involved in the ecclesial movement, Communion and Liberation. For the past three years I have attended their CL Priest Retreat, and this year’s was at Malvern Retreat House which is just outside of Philadelphia. In fact, one of my seminary classmates, Fr. Phillip Forlano, who is also involved in Communion and Liberation was one of the organizers of the retreat (and he and the rest of the team did a great job). In June, the US Editor of Traces: Communion and Liberation International Magazine asked me to write an article about the Priests Retreat. Since it was several months after the retreat (which has always been the week after Easter, so in April this year), I decided to spend some of the article on how the retreat has borne fruit in the lives of the priests who attended. Well, the article is out, in issue #7, and I have attached it below as a PDF file. It is mostly readable (though my byline is not clear).
