Transitions In Life Seem To Be Plentiful Lately

Some of my family members traveled from Missouri and Colorado to be present for Maria and Tyler's wedding on Saturday.  It isn't very often that a good portion of us are gathered together in one place at the same time. Thankfully, technology allows for an easier process of sharing some of the memories of the day for those that were unable to attend.

It has been a a whirlwind of activity during the last week.  On Wednesday I served as a deacon for the funeral of Barbara Murray.  Although I didn't know her well, I know several of her children and grandchildren.  It is obvious through each of them that Barbara was a wonderful woman.  I continue to keep the family in my prayers through this transition in life.

On Friday I served as a deacon for the ordination of two men to the priesthood.  This was a beautiful celebration.  The huge impact of such a life transition for these two families is monumental.  It was wonderful that Fr. Hiep was able to have family members from Vietnam present for the ordination ceremony.  I extend my congratulations as well as my prayers to both Fr. Hiep and Fr. Augustine.  I look forward to working closely with Fr. Augustine in the months ahead since he has been assigned to the Cathedral Parish.  I pray that God fills you with strength, wisdom and grace during this amazing transition in your lives.

Finally, Saturday was the wedding of Maria and Tyler.  It was a nice celebration and the rain held off until later in the afternoon.  Quite a number of people were able to enjoy carriage rides at the reception prior to the onset of the rain.  The ceremony was beautiful and it was a privilege to have Bishop Paul Etienne as the celebrant of the wedding Mass.  This will be a tremendous transition for Maria and Tyler.  May God bless you abundantly all the days of your life together!
