Reflections on Our Day
In Father Kevin's homily for last Thursday's School Mass, he talked to the students about taking time each day to thank God for the good things that happened that day, and help on the not-so-good things that happened. He talked about The Examen. Below, I'd like to share with you a podcast by Father James Martin, who talks more deeply about this beautiful prayer.
