Servite Brothers

This being the first Friday of lent... I wish all a beautiful moment of reflection and renewal.

February 17th honors the Seven Founders of the Order of Servites in the 13th Century: 
The time in which the seven Servite founders lived is very easily comparable to the situation in which  we find ourselves today.  It is the best of times and the worst of times, as Dickens said.  Some, perhaps many, feel called to a counter cultural life, even in religion.  All of us are faced in new and urgent way with the challenge to make our lives decisively centered in Christ.
