Rostro de Cristo in Ecuador: August 2010
http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 12, 2010. Orientation Comes to a Close. Trembling out of Bed. Trembling out of Bed. I experienced my first earthquake this morning! That goodness Jenn and Marita woke me up, or I would have snored straight through it. We must be pretty far from the epicenter because it was just a minute of minor shaking. What a way to start the day! We ended at Las Peñas, a lighthouse downtown, which looks over the entire city. The day wore all of us out. But gave us a much needed tour of the city.

Rostro de Cristo in Ecuador: February 2009
http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 13, 2009. Allowing ourselves to be nourished. How do you ever get even with them if you can´t give them anything in return? The generosity and love that is poured out for us, in allowing ourselves to be humbled in a way that we are not used to and not always comfortable with. Sort of like God´s love, right? I mean, who among us thinks that we´ll eventually be able to ´get even´ with the love shown to us through the creation, redemption, and sanctification of humanity? The Face of Christ.

http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 23, 2010. Darkness Has Not Overcome. A trip to Ecuador,. South of the United States;. 11 students, 3 staff,. 1 God ready to fill our plates. We hopped on a plane,. Dreaming what God had for us as we roam;. Secretly wondering, ‘How we could survive a week,. Without our cell phone? Touching down in Duran’s sticky hot mess,. The bugs make our group squeal;. We ride home in silence, taking it all in,. Not sure how we should all feel. Shacks with no floor, kids with torn soccer balls,. For he ha...

Rostro de Cristo in Ecuador: The Violence of Love
http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2011/04/violence-of-love.html
Thursday, April 14, 2011. The Violence of Love. Easter is itself now the cry of victory. No one can quench the life that Christ has resurrected. Neither death nor all the banners of death and hatred raised against him and against his church can prevail. He is the victorious one! Just as he will thrive in an unending Easter, so we must accompany him in a Lent and a Holy Week of cross, sacrifice, and martyrdom. As he said, blessed are they who are not scandalized by his cross. Oscar Romero, March 23, 1980.

Rostro de Cristo in Ecuador: June 2009
http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2009. I was sitting in church the other night, enjoying the pleasant breeze that drifts through the open rafters above the lit up auditorium of a holy space, when it dawned on me that love is a choice. This past week I got to host my second retreat group, a lovely bunch of high school girls from Magnificat in Ohio. They were a joy, bursting with the excitement and curiosity and passion that our elders gladly smile upon to see coming up as tomorrow´s leaders. It can be easy to see Christ...

http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 23, 2009. It´s a beautiful, sunny Sunday afternoon here in Ecuador! Draft of this note was composed from the hammock on my front porch,. Where the shade hid me at least from a bit of the heat. Right now we. Are in the coolest part of the year for Ecuadorians and lots of. Mornings it is cloudy and cool, but when the clouds burn off it gets. Really warm. This morning there were no clouds and the heat started. Early, promising a hot, muggy day. I think I probably sweat my body. For people wit...

Rostro de Cristo in Ecuador: Courage & Wisdom
http://rostrodecristo.blogspot.com/2011/04/courage-wisdom.html
Friday, April 15, 2011. As we move into our ninth month in Duran, I struggle more and more with the idea of leaving. Just last week, I had a long talk with my boss and mentor, Patricia McTeague, about the possibility of teaching at Fundación Nuevo Mundo for another six months. Our conversation was part of a longer discernment process that began a couple of months ago:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Support Rostro de Cristo. Support Rostro de Cristo.
