Walk It Out (God’s Will)

Published September 3, 2015 • Written by Ablaze Ministries Filed Under: Faith

I used to spend too much of my time stressing about my future and what I was supposed to do with it.  What brought me peace in that anxiety was the book of Deuteronomy.  I love that book.  Through it the Holy Spirit revealed so much to me about following God’s will.  A few months after learning from it… [Read More]

Coincidence? I don’t think so!

Published March 4, 2015 • Written by Adam Shaivitz Filed Under: Faith

I am starting to think there is no such thing as a coincidence. (Were you thinking the same thing?) Whenever someone says, “Wow, what a coincidence,” I usually give a quick nod to the Lord knowing that whatever the person is describing must have been holy handiwork. For your reading pleasure I will share a… [Read More]

Changes

Published February 23, 2015 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog

Right now my life is going through many changes. I have a new job that signifies a new phase of my professional career. I moved into a new home in a new part of town, and there is a lot yet to be settled and figured out. It’s a whirlwind of a Lenten season, with… [Read More]

Satisfaction Guaranteed or Taste and See

Published October 6, 2014 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog

In our consumer culture, we’re used to investigating products before we purchase them. We want our satisfaction guaranteed before we commit to spending the money. Makes perfect sense from a market standpoint. It is safe and healthy to be a bit critical (and very healthy to practice daily discernment), but this structure of trying to guarantee satisfaction first… [Read More]

Another Dating Blog: Change? No, thanks.

Published February 17, 2014 • Written by Britt Echtenkamp Filed Under: Blog, Family, Marriage and Love, Young Adult

“Change is inevitable – except from a vending machine.” –  Robert C. Gallagher I don’t mind change. Well, I don’t mind little changes. For example, I rearrange my bedroom to match my moods. I would change my hair color for the same reason, if I was allowed to have blue/purple/pink/green hair at work. I love… [Read More]

The Ascension and Authority, Relationship and Revelation

Published May 10, 2013 • Written by Rachel Filed Under: Blog

Yesterday was Ascension Thursday, the traditional day when the Feast of the Ascension is celebrated. However,  most parishes in the US will celebrate the Ascension this coming Sunday (see this article for an explanation of why the date was moved!). In these Easter weeks leading up to the Ascension, and then Pentecost, we’ve been hearing… [Read More]

Falling Away With You

Published March 18, 2013 • Written by Britt Echtenkamp Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Young Adult

“[I] promise to hold you close and pray, watching the fantasies decay, nothing will ever stay the same. All of the love we threw away… making the same mistakes again making the same mistakes again I can feel my world crumbling I can feel my life crumbling… and falling away, falling away with you.” –… [Read More]

Trust issues? I got ’em.

Published February 18, 2013 • Written by Britt Echtenkamp Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Marriage and Love, Young Adult

Trust. Now there’s a fun buzz word. We hear this all the time: “What? Don’t you trust me?” “Dude, trust me!” “You have some serious trust issues.” But what is that word, really? According to Webster, trust is the “assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something,” (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/trust). Okay, so… [Read More]

they trusted and you rescued them…

Published September 19, 2012 • Written by Lauren Gulde Filed Under: Blog, Faith, Family, Youth

In my complicated life, I find it amusing that God often reminds me of His eternal truths by demonstrating them through my children. As intellectual as I might like to think I am, I have probably learned more about the love of God for his people by watching my children play, learn and live in… [Read More]

When to Shepherd, When to be Sheep

Published July 26, 2012 • Written by Maria Huemmer Filed Under: Blog, Faith

Last Sunday’s readings were full of shepherds – bad shepherds who didn’t care for the flock, the Lord our Shepherd who would leave us wanting for nothing, God’s promise to send a good shepherd who would care for his people, and Jesus’ gaze upon the people, who moved him, because they “were like sheep without… [Read More]

La semana pasada la parroquia de St. Williams se vistió de colores, decoraciones, y hasta de una que otra mascota.  Fue la semana de VBS (en ingles- Vacation Bible School) que viene siendo Escuela Bíblica de Verano.  Fue una semana llena de música alegre, sonrisas, y mucha actividad.  Por primera vez, con la ayuda de… [Read More]
