The Choice (by Edith Eger)
Memories of a visit to Auschwitz and the life story of Edith Eger inspire Seamus Ahearne.
“If Edith can parallel her life story with the life stories of her patients, I wonder where might we go, if we took her methods into our story of faith and church and ministry. We are so often imprisoned in sadness. We apologise for the past. We are embarrassed by that past. We blame others. We feel that we have failed. …. We can’t let go. We don’t want to get out of prison. We are afraid to wander into freedom and future and hope.”The Music of Mission
Seamus Ahearne continues to be inspired by his early morning walks.
“We walk humbly into the future. We are indeed ‘tiptoeing’ with reverence into that new world, where there are hints of mystery everywhere. ….. Ministry has to change. Parish life has to change. Church has to change. Our understanding of Sacrament has to change. Our concept of Liturgy and worship has to change. We have to change”.Connaught Telegraph: Mayo mourns passing of widely-respected missionary priest

Good to see modern ways of connecting with people getting used.
As a lay person, I would love to see more priests and parishes use social media. Maybe it might be possible for some prists to put the content of their homilies on a facebook page etc.
Dear Thomas.
as far as I am concerned you are most welcome to put any content that you like from the resources section on your own Facebook page. I don’t use Facebook yet myself.
