Fr. Bill's Personal Pages Blog: Faith And Astronomy

http://frbillblog.blogspot.com/2015/08/faith-and-astronomy.html

Fr Bill's Personal Pages Blog. Saturday, August 8, 2015. From Aug. 11-16, hundreds of geeks and their telescopes will once again descend on Indian Trail Spring in the Ochoco National Forest. I, too, make an effort to join the crowd of stargazers to peer into the night sky until sleep comes upon me or the sun rises in the early morning. This is called the Oregon Star Party. Why do I do this? And the answer is, absolutely! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Follow me on Twitter.

Fr. Bill's Personal Pages Blog: Tragedy, Grief, And The Lord

http://frbillblog.blogspot.com/2014/07/tragedy-grief-and-lord.html

Fr Bill's Personal Pages Blog. Tuesday, July 15, 2014. Tragedy, Grief, And The Lord. The past several weeks we have experienced more than our share of tragedies and funerals in our faith communities. It is in these times that sorrow befalls upon us and tempts us to despair and hopelessness. But, do not give in to this darkness. Let the light of Christ pierce the darkness with a light of hope that only God can give! But this I will call to mind; therefore I will hope:. Lam 3:17, 21-26). The mercies of the...

http://frbillblog.blogspot.com/2014/12/a-year-of-gratefulness.html

Fr Bill's Personal Pages Blog. Wednesday, December 24, 2014. A Year of Gratefulness. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! With all the bad news in the world that covers our headlines, it is important not just to be nostalgic, but to once again, root ourselves in those things that are truly good, beautiful, and true (cf. Philippians 4:7- 9). For in these things are true joy and peace. For in these things we encounter the Good News who is Jesus Christ. May God bless you all! Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Fr. Bill's Personal Pages Blog: The Common Good

http://frbillblog.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-common-good.html

Fr Bill's Personal Pages Blog. Sunday, October 19, 2014. The term, “Common Good,” is something that may be lost on many people and is too often being replaced with individual rights with no regard to anyone else. This rugged individualism has been condemned by the Church. We can ill afford to be silent about this issue which is at the base of many if not all social issues confronting our society today.

Fr Bill's Personal Pages Blog. Thursday, March 12, 2015. Vatican Observatory Foundation Hosts Clergy and Educators. Last summer, an invitation went out to the dioceses of the United States to join the Vatican Observatory Foundation for a five day workshop on faith and astronomy for priests and Catholic educators. This was their first time offering such a workshop. Among the 60 clergy applied, 25 were accepted, including myself. As a amateur astronomer, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Would say...

Fr. Bill's Personal Pages Blog: Vacations & Commitments

http://frbillblog.blogspot.com/2015/06/vacations-commitments.html

Fr Bill's Personal Pages Blog. Sunday, June 7, 2015. Another way not to forget one’s faith while on vacation is to continue one's financial commitment to the home parish. Every parish experiences serious financial dips during the summer due to people not making their offering, because of vacations. Yet, we all have to pay our bills. Some of our bills are lower and others are higher simply due to the season. Make up what wasn’t offered upon return from vacation. So, please enjoy your vacations!
