FORTY-FIRST FORTY DAY FAST
FOR THE TRUTH OF GOSPEL NONVIOLENCE
JULY 1-AUGUST 9
FAST FOOD, Fortieth Helping
Friends,
I feel like a slacker having only a picture to send out as the fortieth and last Fast Food Helping for this year, especially after the excellent reflections by David Knight. This was not what I planned. I planned to send you the talk on GNV I gave today at Auschwitz via ZOOM. (I was supposed to deliver it there at the Center for Dialogue and Prayer before medical complications arose.) However, they are having difficulty retrieving the recording of it. So all I have for a final FAST FOOD Helping is a picture of me on a screen at Auschwitz giving the talk! This I am sure has the feel of self-adulation and self-promotion on steroids! But, I wanted to let you know that I really did prepare something for the fortieth FAST FOOD Helping and it’s not getting to you for reasons beyond my control. Anyway, the attached photo is all that I now have for a Fortieth FAST FOOD Helping. If I( ever receive the recording of the presentation, I’ll forward it to you.

“Nothing is better or more necessary than love.
God is pleased with nothing but love.
One act of pure love is more precious in the eyes of God
and of the soul, and more profitable to the Church,
than all the good works together,
though it may seem as nothing.”
– St. John of the Cross
