A friend of mine is the chaplain of the St. John Henry Newman Chapel and Catholic Student Center located at the college here in the city. I have gone there a couple times for Mass and met some of the people there. I thought volunteering there would be a good, productive way to spend some of my time. I talked with the staff a little bit about how I might be able to help. The other day the Campus Minister asked if I could take some photos – particularly of the outside of the building. I brought my camera there today. I heard some of my dad’s photography instructions in my head as I walked around looking for the best angles. It was partly cloudy, so once I saw a good view I waited for the sun to shine on the building. When I got home, I went through and edited the photos. I was pretty happy with a couple of them. I truly enjoyed being outside, taking pictures, and feeling connected to my dad.

I Found God today connecting with a joyful hobby and with my dad.
