I get so many prayer requests, read so much bad news and new crises that my hands are lifted in prayer nearly as much as they are poised over the keys! I love the "Enter Your Mission" idea! It's a shame that I never heard of that one, and I've been a Franciscan for 31 yrs and 2 weeks! 20+C+B+M+09 written above our doors; ashy or oily crosses on foreheads, dates carved into candles, JMJ, +JMJ+, AMGD, now JMJD on the tops of papers --I'll have to add that to my list of "Catholic graffitti."

In some of the rooms you can still where there was sign posted on the wall right as you walk out that said "Enter Your Mission". I thought it was so cool when my RA told me so I wrote that on a post-it note and put in on my computer. Today it's not enough to "Enter your Mission" in the classroom or wherever. We have to remember that where ever there is a possibility that two or more people can socialize there's a possbility to continue our mission of serving God and showing His love to others. So this bright pink post-it note is a reminder to do God's work. (I also wrote JMJD- Jesus Mary Joesph St. Dominic-and yes it was a Dominican sister who taught me to do that ;) ) This document got me thinking…in the Franciscan University I attend the Friars used to live in the building now composed of students.

Nowadays, I have a really difficult time balancing between just enough internet and too much, but it brings me hope that many people can find God in this type of communication. Sadly, there is also material that is not of God on the internet, but to notice the good that it can bring gives me hope that one day we can change the face of this communication. I will sincerely try to communicate God's love through my words which I write on the internet. I am so glad that the Pope recognizes the good that can come from the internet!
