Coming back on line!

After a just under two year sabbatical, I am bringing back up “Don and His Spiritual Journey”.

My status update in life, and first new religious post will begin tomorrow, the 22nd of June 2017, and I hope frequently as time allows!

This past two years of silence has been “deafening to me”, and I need to get back on track!

    Yep, I have this here to write, have a lot I want to say, but just don't sit down and do it. I need to get over worrying if I am going to upset someone with what I say and just come out and write it........ Most of what I…

    A couple of months ago I was informed that the Bishop of my Dioceses was not wanting to accept my vows this coming June for the 4th year as a Hermit (one more after that and I would have been able to give permanent vows).  So, after much prayer, contemplation…

    At  the Saturday Easter Vigil before Easter of 2008 I was accepted into the Catholic Church.  This was a happy day for me, with my Superior General there as my Sponsor into the Church, my mother, father, sister and niece all present to watch me enter into the Church. This…

    With much unhappiness, I'm bringing down the Daily Readings permanently. The database got badly hosed up and I would have had to basically start all over, loosing all history and prior readings, which is doable, but a lot of hassle I felt. It is better to go to Mass everyday…

Life Changes Again!

A couple of months ago I was informed that the Bishop of my Dioceses was not wanting to accept my vows this coming June for the 4th year as a Hermit (one more after that and I would have been able to give permanent vows).  So, after much prayer, contemplation and looking into things, I have come out of Religious Life early and have returned to Lay Life.  In the process I have moved back to Florida, although a bit further south than the last time, now in Homestead Florida.  For now I will be living on my disability retirement from the Veterans Administration, and from my disability compensation as a disabled Veteran while I try to work out what I can do with and not adversely effect and affect my left knee, back and hips, which are why I was retired.

I do plan to continue this blog on my Spiritual Journeys, but also will have a “lay” blog at http://www.ddbellenterprises.com/DonBell, so please keep your eye on both!!

In Christ,

Don

    Yep, more changes in my life! I am in the first stages of moving fully into the life of a Diocesan Hermit.  By that I mean, I am living the Rule of life, but must live it for six month to two years under Private Vows at which time, if…

    This past week I shut down my primary blog, however, I kept the domain and email services.  I was using PowWeb, which at one point was a good service, but they have gone down hill over the past couple of years, which was a partial reason I let them go. …

    Back at the end of October of 2020, I moved to a new Dioceses and a new Church.  Bought a house to live in for the rest of my life, barring any changes in that area. There is a Catholic Church 9/10ths of a mile from my house!  The Pastor…
