Autorenporträt

I am a retired minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) living in central Illinois. In the course of that ministry, I developed a variety of projects which fit into the weekly pattern based on Sunday. Among those was what I call Reflective Prayers, a response to a gentle reading of the lections for a given service, particularly one at which I would be preaching. These were inspired by the comments on the Prayers of Saint Catherine by Suzanne Noffke, O.P. Sr. Noffke noted that Catherine's prayers responded to the lections of the day at Mass and were taken down by her confessor. I soon came to realize that the reflective prayers fed my dealing with the lections for the week and served to illustrate for me the energy of prayer in conjunction with the texts. I continue to produce these reflective prayers and have chosen to revisit earlier sequences of the prayers as in this selection. I live in retirement with my wife of 56 years, our 3 doglets and several cats.
