To forgive genuinely I must live it by sincerely desiring what is good for the other person, what will make them better. It can’t be a sentimental feeling. I must intend with my mind, will and heart to do so.

Words spoken with kindness and understanding will always feed others with confidence and openness. Insight can heal. Suffering comes about with speech that is unkind, untruthful or violent. It smothers reconciliation.

Lent begins today for Christians. It is a time of hope and renewal. It invites perspective. I need to see myself not in terms of my desires but in terms of how I am becoming who God wants me to be in generous service to others.

On #InternationalWomensDay2025 and every other day I am grateful for women and their leading and passionate voices consistently inspiring me and so many others to make a difference

Building a world marked by reconciliation and hope slows down with unkind words and actions. However, it does get built with each act of compassion and concern, and in every loving, caring, forgiving and healing thought.

Silence in all its forms - prayer, reflection, meditation - is never empty and without meaning. In daily quiet moments our minds get to think and grow. Our hearts become more open. We uncover who we truly are. Silence helps us listen.

To realize life is fragile,full of surprises and often uncertain is a sign of maturity. It can then point us in the right direction, demanding a response that comes after listening, prayer, dialogue and reflection.

In our relationships do we raise barriers or do we build bridges? To bring about a change of heart involves being sorry to be in one place, to want to be in another and to have the will, determination and humility to get there.

What’s my reaction to the mistakes of others? To hold them in their “prison” or support them in being renewed? Every person, no matter what, has promise and a hopeful future. A new start comes from a conversion of heart, not coercion or fear.

Palm Sunday begins the journey of Holy Week. We focus on and are grateful for God’s selfless love which in turn calls us to serve others humbly. We rekindle the spirit of our compassion.

Against the darkness goodness shines all the more brightly. What makes Good Friday good is God’s unconditional love for each one of us

Happy Easter! The hope this day brings reminds us we will never be abandoned. Nurturing our gratitude can be the start of setting new directions. Transformation is possible and real change now has a chance to take place in our lives and world

I don’t always need to have all the answers or be able to fix everything. Sometimes all I’m called to do is sit and listen and honour and hold the experience of another person

It is a privilege to be in Toronto with London Police Service ON London Police Service members and all from across Ontario to honour those who gave their lives in the line of duty and to remember those who serve and protect us every day

Happy Mother’s Day! Our Moms are treasures allowing us to see a reflection of the love God has for us - always nurturing, healing and unconditional

Do the communities we connect with excel in the ability to love unconditionally, ready to serve and struggle against all that dehumanizes people and makes them suffer? Kindness and goodness are attractive and contagious.

An authentic desire to bring peace to a community will always involve a willingness to face difficult conversations with courage so we can love deeply and listen honestly.

Reaching out for help and support and accepting it will make us stronger than we ever were. We are not alone.

Every person is given a gift for the good of the community. Reflect on what your gift is. Can you name the gifts of other people?

Happy Father’s Day to our Dads who give/gave witness to steadfast faith and courage in its many forms. We also remember those in need of our prayers and support.
