Catholic Priest // June 29 // Luke 1:38 - John 19:28 // Pray - Work - Love - Serve // ithirst.us - padre.in // For fellow pilgrims on the Way
These two words from John 19:28 are a great reminder of the Lord’s thirst for us and our thirst for Him. Let us, therefore, try to satiate His loving thirst for humanity through our own genuine self-gift and humble service to our brothers and sisters, especially the poorest of the poor.
I respond to Father, Padre, or Cha Khoi because we call each other by our first name in Vietnamese.
I love being a priest. Is it easy? The answer is no, but the journey is filled with many blessings.
I hope what I have imperfectly written in my reflections and books, or preached in my homilies, might help you in some small ways with your faith journey. Please forgive my grammatical mistakes and stutters in your mercy and kindness, and pray for me as I am for you.
God bless you.
