Dispatches from El Salvador: Installment #3

On this episode of “Where in the World Is Fr. Paul”…

“Today, we joined the Anglican Bishop of El Salvador in a little indigenous community in the mountains. We celebrated St. Oscar Romero, and he confirmed two people, and two young people made their First Communion. Afterwards, we had a meal and had a discussion about what it’s like to live there. They are building their church building from the ground up under their own steam.”

On this episode of “Where in the World Is Fr. Paul”…

“Yesterday was a long day. We went to the base ecclesial community that is the organizing committee in the community. We went on procession with them and then celebrated with them in the evening, including a Roman Catholic Mass, in which we were fully included. This was all in honor of St. Oscar Romero.”

Dispatches from Honduras: Installment # 6

Dispatches from Honduras

(As a way of helping the people of St. Paul’s feel engaged with what he is doing in Honduras, Fr. Paul will be sending a picture and brief text about his activity that day to post on Facebook, the church website, and in the e-blast on Thursdays.)

This morning, I led a workshop on fear of God for leaders of the Episcopal mission in this area of Honduras. We gathered at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church in the town of Ojo de Agua.
