stevens point area churches: Washing of the Feet, a Powerful Message.
- 04/09/17 10:59 PM
Washing of the Feet, a Powerful Message.
One of the most impressive traditions of Holy Week is the commemoration of Jesus washing the feet of his apostles.
Churches all over the world hold a mass or ceremony in remembrance of this. In many churches, they choose representatives of the different people involved in church and the priest washes their feet.
In our church, we get our feet washed by the person in front of us in line, we then in turn wash the feet of the person behind us in line. This is quite a humbling experience.
Pope Francis himself will continue this … (2 comments)

Gospel Refreshment and Conversations at Franciscans Downtown
This post is actually from a while back, but I am sharing it again tonight since some of my other posts may have people wondering about this special little hangout in Stevens Point.
Today was one of my days that I take the afternoon off from my regular work and spend some time volunteering with the other Franciscans at our little lounge downtown.
Some days it is more like a homeless shelter, somedays it seems like it is more about showing a few movies, and other days like today it is more about the words that Fr … (2 comments)

stevens point area churches: Holy Week heats up at St Joes in Stevens Point
- 03/24/16 07:07 AM
Today Holy Week heats up with the end of Lent and the beginning of the Triduum.
Today is the day that Jesus celebrated the Passover Celebration with his disciples and thus taught us how to conduct the first Mass, and event that He requested that we continue in His memory.
He began the celebration by washing His follower’s feet, a job generally left to the lowest servant, but a job that Jesus wanted to do as a symbol of service.
Jesus then commanded that we go and do service to those around us following His example.
I hope to see you there for the celebration … (5 comments)

With a meal together, learning about service through the foot washing, learning about the Mass, and teaching them how to run the Church that He was getting ready to leave them with.
It is a powerful week ending with the … (3 comments)
