BIBLE SUMMIT IN NYC

Bible Summit Logo 2011


Today finds me in the Big Apple to take part in this special Bible festival, giving the homily at the Opening Mass this morning and offering a workshop on Lectio divina twice in the afternoon.

"Bilingual" here means English and Spanish, so, with the help of two priest-associates who translated my text and went over the pronounciation with me, I will take a run at three short paragraphs in the homily in Spanish. 

Here is how the program puts it in the language of Cervantes: 

La Cumbre Biblíca Católica De Nueva York - “Encuentre a Jesús - La Palabra Viva”

Blogging will resume on my return: there are lots of events recently that have gone without reports, photos.  I hope to make up for that next week.
