Nourishment

Picturesque snow covered grounds, leafless winter trees. . .

All seem so cold! But, beneath it all, the slow melting snow yields a great source of water, nourishing the fields.

When spring comes, the grounds are awakening with lives.

Reference to "the slow melting snow nourishing the fields" was originally presented in Father Burger’s homily on Sunday, February 14 Mass.

Love Life

Choose Life

Life is fragile. Life is hard. But, life is also beautiful and life is blessed.

Cuộc sống thật mảnh mai. Cuộc sống đôi khi gặp phải những khó khăn và sự đau khổ. Tuy nhiên, cuộc sống cũng thật tươi đẹp, mang lại nhiều niềm vui và hạnh phúc tràn đầy hồng ân Thiên Chúa và Phật Pháp.

One Summer Day

Late in May, the sun rises quite early. By 5:55 AM, it’s already a bright red orange ball hovering over the young wheat field. As I stepped on the break pedal bringing my car to a halt at the stop sign, I felt in awe of the picturesque morning being painted ahead.

Was I blinded by the sunlight or awakened by the beautiful scenery?
Isn’t it strange that we rarely stop and see?
