Waiting for a Passage to India
Sometimes waiting is frustrating – to say the least. I’m trying my best to allow this waiting to be a productive time.

Joy….
When Jesus recounted the story of the Prodigal Son he described the Father’s house as a place of joy, dancing, music, and laughter. It sounds like a place of life and great celebration.

The practice began very early in Christian Church history as a shorter three day period of fasting for personal reflection and penance as Easter approached.
