Thoughts...

Hmnmm..

Just got back from meeting with my parish priest. It was one of those meetings where you come out way too enthusiastic, and things just seem to be going well.

I went to see him to talk about youth work. More precisely to try and persuade him to let our parish get more involved in Youthnet and the other things in Earley. There was me thinking that some commitment to publicity would be good. Maybe some prayer support. The odd visit from a friendly priest to one of our events...

So I'm a tad blown away by the concept of me standing up at each of our 4 masses in September and inviting the whole parish to take on board what Youthnet is, why we should support it, why their children should think about coming, and to encourage the rest of the parish to think about the importance of talking and thinking about their faith and formation.

Ok, so that's a bit of an exaggeration. He asked me to standup and talk about Youthnet and why we should encourage or young people to be involved. The rest of the list is an inevitable part of it, at least it is as I see it.

ok.

right.

Better get over that fear of microphones....

We also had an interesting chat about sin, mission and engagement with traditional Catholics. All in 50 minutes :-$

Incidentally, as part of the discussion we got to this deep theological concept... Have you ever considered that sin is like poo? You don't want to be near it. It smells. It brings disease and sickness...

So this poses and interesting question...
if sin is poo... What is a wastewater treatment works?

A baptismal font?

So being an engineer is a vocation. Finally the proof of what I've been telling everyone for years...
