For a reflection on this theme, check out this page from the Crossroads Initiative site. Many other good things are to be found on that site too.

Thanks, Sr Eleanor, for the link. I’ve been back a good few times now and have got a lot out of the site – especially the Hot Topics Q+A and the Library section.
I can’t help wondering how his message would impact here in Ireland. I’d love to hear him, but more importantly I’d like him to speak to our youth. He seems to exude such zeal and joy.
There are comparisons with Pope John Paul ll in that both men put to use an innate talent – performing – so as to engage their audience.
My only concern is that the site would turn more gimmiky and less evangelical, but hopefully that won’t happen.
The picture of the advent wreath is lovely – and different in that the wreath is horizontal – something I’ve not seen before
