SATURDAY, FIRST WEEK OF LENT

Jesus was Human as We Are
And history calls him Jesus of Nazareth...
Imagine the breadth of humanity as you look at the picture, humanity that includes Jesus. Jesus was one of us.
What sort of person is Jesus of Nazareth?
How is he like you, how different?
How do we recognize Jesus today?

“Traveling Monk “ Central France Youth Retreat , fall, 2002

Jesus of Nazareth, born of a woman, human like the least of us, hear our prayers. We seek to know you; we seek to know ourselves as you see us. We stand in awe of your power; we wonder at your capacity for compassion. We wish to be your family. Come to us anew for it is in your name that we pray. Amen.
