May visiting the cemetery invite us all to remember and to wait in hope. For we are not enclosed in the past or in sentimental tears of nostalgia. Neither are we sealed within the present, as in a tomb. May the familiar voice of Jesus reach everyone, because it is the only one that comes from the future. He calls us by name and prepares a place for us.
Remembering Rachel Brennan who recently died. She served @MidwestJesuits very generously and raised funds for our healthcare and apostolic works. May the Angels lead her into paradise!
