I have always felt drawn to the Carmelite hermits of Christoval, TX. Not to join them or anything, but I appreciate them sitting out there in the middle of nowhere, pursuing their calling to sit out there in the middle of nowhere praying all day.

CCD finally resumed normal operations yesterday after about 5 straight weeks of special topics and/or weeks off due to Lent and Easter.

Flickr vs. Facebook
