Looking for Postulates!

Hello Brothers in Christ (and Sisters who know of Brothers looking  a life dedicated to Christ!),

The Order of Brothers of Reconciliation is “open for business” and actively accepting Postulates who are looking to find an Order that will allow them to follow the footsteps of Christ through striving for reconciliation with God and His commandments.  The Order is open to all Catholic men from the age of 18 up, that is in communion with the Roman Catholic Church, single, and of relatively good health.

Our chrism is one of contemplation, preaching and teaching, with the focus on helping ourselves come into reconciliation with God first and foremost, then assisting others through seminars, retreats, classes, prayer, and counseling to find and reconcile with God as well.

For more information on how to join us go here!  We look forward to hearing from you!

In Christ,

Friar Don, OBR

    Well, let me rephrase that last post.  Religious life isn't over for me.  I have continued to do the Liturgy of the Hours (LOTH) (7 set prayer times a day, following a set rubrics) at least the four major Hours, and often all seven.  I still read the Bible daily,…

    During the year 2008, our supervising Bishop retired due to health, and shortly after that, our Superior General left the Order for some reason.  In the process, the newly selected Superior General moved the Order to Ft. Lauderdale Florida.  A few months later, he petitioned the Archbishop of Miami, our…

During my RCIA Studies…

During my RCIA studies, I was also involved in a Catholic Scripture Studies program at St. Elizabeth’s that was very enlightening and educative on one Book in the Bible at a time.  This program, we did the Book of Matthew, was outstanding and helped me to better study the Bible.

I was also involved in a couple of prayer retreats, to better learn how to pray in various ways.  This further built my foundation in my new spiritual home.

Near the end of my preparation for Easter, St. Elizabeth’s Catholic Men Emmaus Group was to hold a three night, two and a half day Emmaus Retreat.  This is a retreat in which the new people hear the stories of other Christian men and how they found the Lord in their life.  It is very touching and pulls you even closer to God with each story.  There are also sessions where you bring out your story as it is unfolding, you learn more about the Bible, the Church, and through your listening to others, more about you.  During the whole time, there are other Emmaus “Graduates” praying in support for you and for your growth in the faith.  This is an event I would recommend all Catholics participate in, male or female!

Easter nears!

In Christ!

    As we come fully into Lent, I would like to remind everyone to pray often!  One of the best sacrifices you can do is to give up some of your play time to prayer time!  Bi-directional conversation with God, through prayer and reading the Bible (and listening to God's Words…

    A few months ago I acquired a "basic" Catholic Package on the Logos 4.x platform that I thought was outstanding.  The Logos software allows you do do some pretty extensive searching on your digital library, which is highly index, allows you to compare Bible versus between translations, read whole books…

    While in Maryland, before moving to Florida, I looked over all the religions and faith systems that I had looked at before.  Nothing felt right.  The closest to right was the ways I was currently following, that of the Native Americans. A good job came up that took me down…
