Meeting Christ (Fr. Steve Grunow / Susan Delaney Spear)

In each day, in each encounter,
there is the possibility of
meeting and serving Christ.

--Fr. Steve Grunow

Homily, May 30, 2020 

I run in oddly warm December air
and chase the orange, evanescent sun.
Inhale, exhale (a runner’s form of prayer),
I run in oddly warm December air.
A stranger joins me on the asphalt trail.
We speak in measured rhythm, then—he’s gone.
I run in oddly warm December air,
My heart burns like the evanescent sun. 

--Susan Delaney Spear, Emmaus
