We Interrupt this Broadcast...

...to say, Blessings to all on this solemnity of All Saints Day.  For me this is a day to contemplate the saints in my life - canonized and not, living and dead.  And it is a day to give thanks for those who inspire me by their example of discipleship, for those who (to use Pope Benedict's description of the saints) "bring to light in creative fashion quite new human potentialities."

My extended reflection on the day is posted on my blog.
