Pope Francis Memory

I remember collecting coupons in the Irish Daily Mail and the Irish Mail on Sunday to get this commemorative medal. It took weeks, and perhaps a few extra runs to the shop. But now I can look at this and remember Pope Francis in Ireland

My Rite of Admission into the Secular Franciscan Order

Today I had my RITE OF ADMISSION into the Secular Franciscan Order in Galway. I have been learning for a year and now I am progressing in my Formation. It is the Secular Franciscan Order or Lay Franciscans. They gave me a little TAO cross and the Rule. The Rule isn't a book of rules btw It is daily prayers you're encouraged to pray and information on the Order.

Welcome to my Prie-Dieu

Welcome to my Pire-Dieu. A Pire-Dieu is a Prayer Desk in a church which is used for devotional purposes. You can kneel and pray, but it also comes with a little shelf for prayer books and other contemplative items. This is a virtual version of my shelf. I will post my articles, letters and other Catholic activity here. Image: Window in the Franciscan Abbey Church, Galway, Ireland.
