Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.
It’s been an exciting year for me!
A year of growth. A year of change.
I am grateful to Elizabeth Scalia for taking the chance on an unknown and for allowing my voice to be heard here at Patheos.
I am grateful for your taking the time to stop by, and for your encouraging me by sharing my words, and for your thoughtful comments. I hope that my writings have been meaningful, inspiring, and encouraging.
I am grateful to Pier Giorgio Frassati, to whom this blog is dedicated and from whom I seek continued prayers for wisdom, thoughtfulness, and my own betterment.
I am grateful to my family and my friends. They constantly encourage me with their love, their wisdom, their guidance, and their kind words. Through them, I have felt God’s unmerited grace.
I wish you all health, love, friendship, peace, the attainment of goals, financial security, and the additional means to reach out to others in need. They are our neighbors. They are the least of these (Mt. 25)
May you have a blessed 2015.
Thanks for reading!
I look forward to interacting with you again in January!
Peace
