Hopefully this finds you are all well; maybe you are enjoying some holiday?
The brothers are at various points of departure and return for work engagements and holiday. Thomas CR is flying to Laski, Poland today (Wednesday 16th) for a meeting of Christophorus, which is an ecumenical gathering of religious continuing dialogical work incepted in large part by our brother, Christopher Lowe across the former East Germany. Similarly, Charlie CR will attend the Conference of Inter-Religious later this month and present a paper.
I for one am missing my young nephews and nieces and shall be glad to go and see them next week, where doubtless they’ll tell me all about their fun holiday in a sweltering Greece!
It’s always a long July with the community chapter, although we had a superb retreat conducted by Fr Robert Igo of Ampleforth, who really helped us to set our minds not on things of the earth.
In these increasingly hard times for so many, we continue to intercede for the peoples of Ukraine, Myanmar, Hawaii and other sites of warfare, tyranny and climate crisis, so we that can stand together with those to whom God looks to exalt in all our forms of estate.
May you know him with you throughout this summer.
Marc CR
