Chaplain's Chatter: Thoughts, Reflections and Musings from the Catholic Chaplain
We all know how busy this time of the year can be. Final papers, presentations, exams and graduation are quickly upon us! It is in these times of stress that finding time for prayer is most important. However, if you are like me, finding the time seems almost impossible. Need help finding this time? Well the Jesuits have an app for that!
You can now experience a peaceful, prayerful "time-out" anytime, anywhere on your iPhone, iPad, Android smartphone or tablet. The 3-Minute Retreat app is free and brings you a new retreat each day. Select the right app for you from the choices below:
Taking just 3 minutes a day out of your busy schedule will help you be more calm, centered and focused!
Easter Peace,

Richard Gaillardetz
The Sense of the Faithful:Recovering a Forgotten Teaching of Vatican II
April 16, 2015, 7 p.m.
Forum, Otto A. Shults Community Center
Authority in the Church Today: Challenges and Questions
April 17, 2015, 1:30 p.m.
Linehan Chapel, Golisano Academic Center
Prominent theologian, author, and lecturer Richard Gaillardetz is the Joseph Professor of Catholic Systematic Theology and Director of Graduate Studies at Boston College. Prior to joining the faculty at Boston College, he taught at the University of St. Thomas Graduate School of Theology in Huston and was the Thomas and Margaret Murray and James C. Bacik Professor of Catholic Studies at the University of Toledo.
The titles of his most recent books—When the Magisterium Intervenes: The Magisterium and Theologians in Today’s Church (2012); Keys to the Council: Unlocking the Teaching of Vatican II (2012), co-authored with Catherine Clifford; and Ecclesiology for a Global Church: A People Called and Sent (2008) —as well as the topics of his many scholarly and popular articles point to his concern about the issues and challenges facing the Catholic Church today, from authority to discipleship to pastoral leadership to globalization.
A frequent speaker at local, national, and international academic and pastoral conferences, Gaillardetz is as comfortable speaking to colleagues at the Catholic Theological Society of America, of which he is the immediate past president, as he is to people in the pews and those who minister to them.
