Saying Goodbye

For the past year or so we have gotten to know Father Peter Bui as a priest, a friend and a pastor. He is a very faithful and obedient Servant of God. He is heading off to Rome to work for a Cardinal there and Andy and I were able to spend one last meal with him before he leaves. As all goodbye's are, it was bittersweet. Rome will be receiving another wonderful priest and we will miss him dearly.

 God Bless and safe travels Father!

It's always a joy to see Priests, family and friends around the same table sharing a meal, laughs and memories!
Jessica, Andrew, Fr. Peter and Fr. Romy

 One last picture before everyone heads off for the night. I love this image because our Sacrament of Matrimony is sandwiched between the Sacrament of Holy Orders...to me it's beautiful!

Family

The family endures because it offers the truth of mortality and immortality within the same group. The family endures because, better than the commune, kibbutz, or classroom, it seems to individualize and socialize its children, to make us feel at the same time unique and yet joined to all humanity, accepted as is and yet challenged to grow, loved unconditionally and yet propelled by greater expectations. Only in the family can so many extremes be reconciled and synthesized. Only in the family do we have a lifetime in which to do it. -Letty Cottin Pogrebi
