A Whisper of Something Else

By Anna Berger No one in the world knows you’re here, Atop this ridge with your rose-flushed face and the dirt smudges up and down your faintly aching legs, you are alone. But God is no one because God is the One and the world is God’s and there’s a whisper of something else in […]

Sing to the Lord a New Song! A Reflection on the Province V Gathering in Chicago

by Charlie Meszaros Recently, I attended the Prov V Young Adult Retreat in Chicago as both a former and potential future college student, and as a friend of Dr. Bob Padberg and Dr. Ellen O’Shaugnessy.  The theme was “Sing to the Lord a New Song”, something that very much interested me, as I am somewhat […]

Communities of Discovery

What Improv taught us about the spiritual life while we were at the Young Adult Retreat “Isn’t improv hard?” My wife asked me at breakfast, after I’d been waxing poetic about the 2015 Young Adult retreat, where my friends Barbara Allen and Bill Sabo led us in exploring the spirituality of improvisation. “Not really,” I […]

Living in Community at Confluence House

by Katie Guy It has been a new experience to live with a group of people and to have the specific intentionality that we have living together.  At the beginning of our service year we came up with a Rule of Life that organized our intentions for the year.  I’ve always been someone that appreciated […]

What’s Your Dream?

On Monday our new Brendan’s Crossing cohort moves in. I’m looking forward to this year, this group of young adults and watching the good work they’ll do in our city.

Who will I love, and how will I love them well?

This year, Praxis Communities are thinking and writing about the question “How do we live in relationship?”  Different individuals and communities will read this question in different ways, and nuance it to fit their own questions and understandings.  I’m most interested in romantic relationships, and so my version of the question is “Who will I love, […]

Triangle: Faith, Family and Friends

I already watched that, lived that, and it’s not worth repeating.” As Mary Laymon, our facilitator, would go on to explain, my anxiety was high and I felt out of control because […]
