		<title>Another Candidate’s View</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My good friend and fellow Deacon Candidate Dennis Kelley put his own unique spin on Sunday&#8217;s event:

A &#8220;Candidate&#8221; For The Diaconate

On Sunday, December 6, twenty-four men and I were called by Archbishop Alex J. Brunett to Candidacy for the Diaconate in the Seattle Archdiocese of the Catholic Church. In the Rite of Candidacy, the Church [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Greetings and Blessings!
I wanted to blog something in light of the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, about this last Sunday&#8217;s event regarding the spiritual journey I&#8217;m on. I want to look back years from now, and remember the warmth and closeness I experienced, as I shared this moment with my friends and family. It was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Once again, Advent is upon us. A time of reflection and preparation. I was in a new liturgical role for this 1st Sunday of Advent, which in fact, begins a new liturgical year. I was a Lector. The readings start with a bold statement by the Lord God, letting us know something big would happen [...]]]></description>

		<title>True Thanksgiving</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last night, as we were celebrating the vigil of Thanksgiving, I was reminded that we are people of constant thanksgiving. We give thanks each and every time we come to church, thankful and ever mindful of our manifold blessings.
There are many moments where my life&#8217;s been touched by something I&#8217;ve learned, or someone I&#8217;ve met. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Voice of the Unconscious</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several years ago, my wife, daughter and I took a course hosted by the Tacoma Mountaineers titled, &#8220;Mountain Oriented First Aid&#8221; or &#8220;MOFA&#8221; for short. In this course, we learned to provide First Aid to victims of injuries sustained in mountaineering. It was a course that many in the medical field had difficulty with. The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rite of Candidacy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Saturday evening, we as a group were notified by the Vicar for Clergy, that Archbishop Brunett has received and accepted all of our petitions for Candidacy. This is an important step for us on our journey toward ordination as a Roman Catholic Deacon.
As a recap, last year was termed, our Aspirancy year. Not like aspirin, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christ the King</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday&#8217;s celebration of the Feast of Christ the King reminded me of the often forgotten purpose of us as Christians. That is, we must always and everywhere work for the coming of His Kingdom.
Isn&#8217;t that what we pray for in the Lord&#8217;s prayer? Is it what we believe?
&#8220;Come, let us worship Jesus Christ, the King [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hospice of Kitsap County – Final Rights</title>

Almost 2 weeks ago, my supervisor at the hospital asked me to attend another, hosted by the Hospice of Kitsap county. It was about the care of the dying, and respecting/fulfilling final wishes.

		<title>Sacred Art of Living and Dying</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, I had the opportunity to sit in on seminar put on by the Sacred Art of Living Center of Bend, Oregon. I have to say, that was one unique experience in terms of the historicity of this ancient art called &#8220;Anamcara&#8221;. I was interested in attending because of my ministry and in light of [...]]]></description>
