Thankful


Jesus went up the mountain and 
summoned those whom he wanted 
and they came to him.
He appointed Twelve, 
whom he also named Apostles,
that they might be with him. 
                               Mk 3:13-14

It has been just a week since we started this pilgrimage, and there has not been a day when we have failed to give praise to the Lord, for he has been so good to us. Today was a great day. We had classes all morning and then we had the afternoon off. It was a good opportunity to build fraternity among us. Some guys gathered in small groups to go out for a cup of coffee; others went out to explore the town, and others spent time praying at one of the local churches. It is pretty neat.  The fact is that we all come from different places, with different customs, languages and personal stories. Yet, despite that diversity, at the end of the day, we all give thanks to the Lord for he has appointed us to be with Him.
