I live in the Jesuit Community at Creighton and do pastoral ministry and spiritual direction.

 Our beloved brother, Fr. Jim Egan, S.J. died in 2008. He is missed every day.
 

I've been a Jesuit for 55 years. My last assignment was to serve the Church in Uganda by ministering to local diocesan priests in a renewal center that served the 19 dioceses of Uganda. For the last three years I have been facing the challenge of two different forms of cancer. I now name myself a cancer survivor with gratitude to God's healing power and the care and prayer of so many.

During times of fatigue and dryness I have found these reflections a great help in connecting to God's word in life and in prayer. I am so enriched by the varied backgrounds of those writing. I am privileged to join you in sharing faith in this way.
