To One Kneeling Down No Word Came

December 27, 2022 | Jonathan Chan

For the last four years, I have been haunted by the voice of R. S. Thomas. An Anglican priest who tended to a parish in Wales, Thomas was also a poet. His poems have stood as lodestones in the corners of my mind each time I have prayed, or sat down to write a poem of my own.

We love to learn about their interests, like art or music. We measure their height and weight. We show them how much they’ve grown.

The Hardest Goodbye

May 27, 2022 | By Raquel Sequeira TD ’21.5

Over the past few years, I’ve been learning more about the traditional Church calendar. I learned from my audio devotional that today (Thursday, May 26, 2022) is the Feast of the Ascension: the day we celebrate Jesus’ return from life here on Earth to his Father in heaven.
