Hawaii’s Catholic priests together with Bishop Larry Silva gather at Turtle Bay Resort, north shore of Oahu for the 2010 Priests’ Convocation.
The convocation’s theme is “Do This in Memory of Me: Renewing the Spirituality of Priesthood.” The convocation is not a retreat. Therefore, annual spiritual retreat is required of all priests.
The Office of Clergy has asked Pauline Books and Media to have an exhibit of books, CD, and DVD for the priests. Early this morning, the drive from downtown Honolulu to North Shore was beautiful. Many of the priests express their appreciation of our presence and mission here in Hawaii. The day seems full with 9am morning prayer, sessions, 11:30am Mass and 5pm evening prayer. Fr. Cletus(pictured)was the main Celebrant for today's Sacred Liturgy. For morning and evening prayer, we pray the Liturgy of the Hours. What is the Liturgy of the Hours? The Liturgy of the Hours is an ancient and beautiful prayer that unites us to the entire church and is as relevant today as it was in the first centuries of the church.
Let us continue to pray for our priests.
"Lord, your love reaches to heaven; your truth to the skies. Your justice is like God's mountain, your judgments like the deep." (Psalm 36)
