The story in the paper just recently of the girl from Hadley who committed suicide due to the bullying of her peers was heartbreaking. It's something that needs to be addressed and looked at ways to prevent this from happening. Your homily was good for all to hear, but especially those who fail to treat others with kindness and respect.gracenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808375493800890797.post-16311560629119798652010-02-01T07:45:17.505-05:002010-02-01T07:45:17.505-05:00For me love is a choice I make to consider what is...For me love is a choice I make to consider what is good for the other. It compels me to move outside of myself. Too often love is relegated to the realm of just an emotion or feeling. It's seems to be about what do I get out of it? That is the challenge you place before us Father.

We had the kids do the readings and the young lady that read Corinthians did an outstanding job. I watched her and looked at the other kids, thinking about our retreat theme of community and inclusion. <br /><br />So coming here today was a reminder of how our behavior among one another realizes the Gospel or rejects it.<br /><br />In case you are wondering, let me say that the retreat was amazing and the Scriptures gave us the launch pad needed, as always.<br /><br />FranSt Edwards Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00585815864104929974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808375493800890797.post-89661286114896029692010-01-31T18:34:06.607-05:002010-01-31T18:34:06.607-05:00Austin,

Since we cannot make it to church, we decided to read this week's readings and your homily. Very moving, thought provoking, and amazing.<br /><br />We "loved" it.<br /><br />Thanks for making us feel better - Gerry & JohnGerrynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808375493800890797.post-56807622846817948242010-01-31T16:32:04.367-05:002010-01-31T16:32:04.367-05:00Father Austin,
