As we enter Holy Week of 2009, now is a great time to take a hard look at your spiritual life relative to your particular calling in the world. Are you including God and your faith in everything you are doing, every day? Can you do better? No doubt we all can. A brother Knight writes about "Columbian Spirituality" as something we as Knights are called to practice daily, saying that a Knights daily spiritual life is "interwoven in the fragments that make up an entire day" and thus, every activity therein, if offered to God, makes the entire day itself a prayer (click here to read more). Take time to take stock. Here are some links to good information that can help you make this week a truly holy week for you:
- Get Scriptural: Read and reflect on scripture daily. Click here for a great site from Creighton University that inlcudes scripture plus an online reflection.
- Pray the Liturgy of the Hours: follow the daily rhythm of the Church at Universalis. Click here.
- Get in the Prayer Habit: An extraordinarily simple and profound way of prayer is offered through the Apostleship of Prayer, which promotes daily prayer for the Church and world and for the intentions of the Holy Father. Click here.
- Make a Sacred Space: Take 10 minutes toward a holier day. Sponsored by the Jesuit Province of Ireland. Click here.
- Get your Spiritual Exercise: Download the text of the Spirtual Exercise of St. Ignatius, take them to heart and put them in practice. Click here.
- Attend more Masses: Click here for the OLPH Bulletin where you will find a schedule of Holy Week Masses and other activities (look for page 5). Click here for the St. Stephens weekly events calendar.
