The Los Angeles Religious Education Congress is the largest annual gathering of its kind in the world. This four-day event is held at the Anaheim Convention Center and is sponsored by the Office of Religious Education for the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. RECongress began in 1956 as an institute for religious education teachers. Since then, RECongress has grown to include people of all ministries, vocations, and faiths. Our event opens on Thursday with Youth Day - a day-long gathering of high school aged young people. Youth Day features keynote speakers, workshops, and a Liturgy planned by young people, for young people. The excitement continues Friday - Sunday when we welcome adult participants from around the globe. Our Adult Days offer hundreds of workshops in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. Participants also receive access to arena keynotes, the opening ceremony, Liturgies, entertainment, evening events, and our exhibit hall. We look forward to welcoming you!
Qué importante charla y doy gracias a Dios por la doctora Tobar y su lindo trabajo en la Iglesia. Creo q todo comienza con nuestro deseo de hacer la voluntad de Dios pues cuando pongo mi orgullo a un lado me convierto en su instrumento. Bendiciones. 🙏🏻
Does anyone else get a tingle when a portion of the message is to 'die gracefully' at a time when population control could be the final goal of the Truly much-more-powerful-than-Us 'Elite? Worse, they typically become 'Elite' by birth or association, by taking advantage of a genetic immoral fortitude + illegal practices
What a beautiful loving inspiring message. Thank you Fr. Tony Ricard,for staying true to your faith and Love for Jesus Christ and his Church. For the love you have for God’s children: Your passion is truly inspiring. God, bless you and protect you and mother Mary, wrap her mantle around you. Juanita Johnson
Perhaps Jesus did feel it and mean it when he said "why have you forsaken me" to the Father, but, and this is the wonderful thing about evangelicals, being the good Berean's they are, he's also quoting from Psalms. In that same passage Jesus is quoting, David is somehow transported to the foot of the cross, long before Jesus was ever nailed there. It's one of the greatest messianic prophecies. David prophesies the Roman soldiers casting lots for Jesus' tunic. It'll bring a tear to your eye. Jesus is quoting it as if saying "I am He that David saw."
Ooh ... How wonderful what wisdom from a man who it seems to me knows, knows the wisdom of falling and suffering and by the grace of God alone knows that something else bigger than ourselves is HOLDING us. What comfort! Even with all our imperfections all our dysfunctional attempts to save ourselves, all our resistance to powerlessness and falling, something bigger than ourselves loves us and brings us out (all unknowing) to the other side where love covers all. What a relief! Richard is certainly a Prophet of our time! I love his vulnerability and sharing of his own journey, its like Jesus is speaking to me personally. God Bless Richard Rohr, thank you God. Thank you!! Thank you Richard! 💓🙏💃xxx
As an 80 year old life-long seeker of Truth perhaps I am a wise elder. How would I know? It is my ego that would cause me to assume that I was such? And as a person created in the image and likeness of Christ can I take the words of Jesus 2,000 years ago and now say something similar such as "Jesus and the Bible says and I say" and share my own personal interpretation (according to my own past study) and (my own personal "inner experience" of peace and occasional bliss? ) Hard to put into words here, but this is a serious question i have had rattling around inside of me in recent years....
Things I cannot fix. Cannot control. Cannot understand. Cannot explain. They are what they are and there is nothing I can do about it. That's where I ask God to change me. Align with God's will for me today. . .
