The Real Pres­ence mat­ters. It is the one thing that sets us most apart. When the good feel­ings and the peak expe­ri­ence start to fade, find refuge in the sacra­ment. Find refuge in the Eucharist; find refuge in Ado­ra­tion. These aren’t magic bul­lets that will sud­denly make you feel a surge of eupho­ria, but they will keep you focused on the one thing that mat­ters: Truth; for Christ is Truth.

Easter ping!

We had a nice group receiving the Sacraments last night, including representatives of some our Hispanic clans. They’re not “converts” in the sense that I am, but cultural Catholics who had missed the Sacraments due to factors like life in El Salvador.

I thought of Mrs. Don-o, who is RCIA coordinator at her parish, and wished them all a blessed night.

DP and I joined the Church in 1993. Today is our daughter Anoreth’s 25th birthday. She was Catholic before we were!
