In just a little under 2 weeks the VIT won’t be a VIT anymore. As we prepare for his ordination to the priesthood we are called to reflect on what has helped pave the road to this point and sit in prayerful anticipation for what lies ahead. The journey, you realize, is never really over.
The last couple of years have provided so much growth. For us. For our family. For our shared faith. For our vocations. We’ve all come a long way. But as the saying goes, although much is asked of you, more shall be asked. We are here for it. To see my partner and best friend living into this vocation, it fills my heart with immense pride and joyous thanksgiving. He is truly doing what God has intended for him.
Although his ordination will not be as numerous in attendance as we had hoped we are so fortunate that we will be able to attend as will his parents. Our dear friend from seminary will preach. We will be celebrating virtually with our friends across the miles. We couldn’t ask for more during a global pandemic.
So as we wait in hopeful anticipation we ask for your prayers as we begin this transition. Much big love from deep in the heart of Texas.
