Redemptorist Youth Vocation Ministry

The 2006-2007 academic year was a very interesting and challenging time for me as I embarked on my theological field education placement with the Redemptorist Youth Vocation Ministry. Redemptorist spirituality expresses itself in a desire “to evangelize and to be evangelized by the poor,” a dynamic orientation towards ministry that is rooted in community life.

They make me smile!

It was 8:00 a.m. on a Monday morning, and Fr. Campbell was ringing the bell that marked the beginning of the school day at Nativity School of Worcester, MA. Nativity is an independent, Jesuit middle school for inner-city boys living in the vulnerable neighborhoods of Worcester, who have few or no options for attending a private school.

When it rains, it pours.

Or so they say. I have always wondered why we so often associate rain with bad things. Personally, I love the rain. It feels good on a hot day; it makes flowers and vegetables grow; it paints rainbows in the sky on sunny days; and, of course, no kid can say enough good things about puddles.
