Well, this is kinda amusing. My pic is on the cover of our local paper, plus I did much of the design work for the PVLIP ad at the bottom of the page. I’m interviewed for a story about our community free store, plus there is an article about and letter from the PV Antiracism Team I’m a member of.

In a few weeks I move from being a Community Liaison at PVLIP to being Executive Director of 500 Stephen Community Centre in Morden. It is a return to my favourite work of providing a place of hospitality.

Reading Dorothy Day’s Spiritual Writings for a Catholic Worker’s book group and am reminded once again of the spiritual depth of this great woman.

A life of prayer means being alert for each opportunity to stop and notice.

I’m spending part of my holidays reading this lovely book, “Being Generous: The Art of Right Living.” I just finished a chapter on receiving, an act which is often more challenging than giving. One of the greatest gifts one can give another is to fully receive (be present to) the other.

I spent 20 years doing repair and conservation work in libraries so I always smile when I see this stamp in our local library books. Oh, the challenges of “helpful” library patrons.

I see people posting 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. You are supposed to post 1 a day with no explanations. I'm bad at following directions. Here are 4 books that have most significantly influenced me. I guess they are all about a life of prayer.

Books stacked on each other: The Sacrament of the Present Moment, The Rule of St. Benedict, The Practice of the Presence of God, The Way of the Pilgrim

I work with immigrant settlement in southern Manitoba and I’ve heard many stories of experiences of “nice Canadians” like those from this column in our local paper.

What does Jesus overturning the tables in the temple have to do with prayer? A few thoughts on my blog. www.kevindriedger.com/blog/2024/11...
