  • ENTERING THE FALL SEASON:

    CREATING SPACES FOR SPIRITUAL GROWTH

    Fall 2025 | Fr. Mark Cruz, AM

These changes that come also encourage our minds and bodies to adapt to whatever weather is to come. We put on more layers when it is cold or change to our shorts and short sleeve shirts when it’s warm and sunny. Our way of thinking is affected by the changing of time and season as well.
