"One more time. One more time. You allowed us to come together one more time..."

There's nothing like a Spiritus Christi welcome to remind us that Jesus dwells in the hearts of his people. From the first welcoming embrace to the last departing hugs, we knew--really knew--we were loved.

With Reverands Mary Ramerman, Denise Donato, Jim Callan and our Spiritus Christi friends, we rediscovered that no one's a stranger. We're all part of God's family.

With Edwina Gately, we learned to be bold! To say "yes" to our dreams, no matter the cost.

With Jim Ramerman, we found a safe place to face our weaknesses so we could grow stronger.

With Myra Brown, we experienced praise that sprang from the song in her heart.

With Bishop Peter Hickman we learned to be true to Love's prayer and to move with the Spirit's prompting.

With each other, we found new ways to love, trust and laugh! We listened to each other with our hearts as well as our minds.

Together, we saw God's unfolding miracles (some amazingly profound, some intimately tender) that instilled in us the deep knowing that we truly are priestly people..."And that's good. That's REAL good!"
