Fr. Glenn: When The Going Gets Tough…
By Fr. Glenn Jones
So these days we find ourselves in the midst of a health crisis … spawning an economic and financial crisis in its wake. Tanking markets. Fear, uncertainty, trepidation, worry. Isolation against an invisible enemy. Empty streets. Vacant airports. Closures. Shortages. Unemployment. Lockdowns. Dire forecasts. Flattening, but extending, “the curve”.
…Opportunity.
One of the most pervasive misconceptions about the divine is that, if we are good people, God should make everything hunky-dory for us all the time. Well, for one thing, who among us is truly good? Even Jesus Read More

Fr. Glenn: Team Effort
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
“Beware the ides of March!”, Shakespeare places on the lips of Caesar’s soothsayer. You might think that Shakespeare had some insight into 2020 with this coronavirus thing. It’s interesting—and most humbling—how a microscopic thing can bring the macro human world almost to its knees. The mightiest man … the most beautiful woman … the most powerful politician—little difference to a little virus. It spits its short little genetic code into a cell … that cell becoming a virus factory (imagine a document taking over your copier). Wash, rinse, repeat, goes the cycle ‘til our heroes—white Read More

Fr. Glenn: The Lord Giveth…
Fr. Glenn Jones:
The Lord giveth…
…and the Lord taketh away.
That phrase of Job (Job 1:21) came to mind the last couple of weeks as each day saw roller coaster stock market fluctuations and the resulting uncertainty, and perhaps evaporation, of a large amount of the wealth that people so assiduously accumulate and invest … most, if not all, of the uncertainty sparked by the coronavirus scare. And thus we see how tenuous are the material things upon which we depend and set hopes upon … this current example showing how perhaps years of work and earnings may be wiped out—albeit indirectly—by even the Read More
