The discernment house I was staying with for a few days. We headed out to the beach for the day and had a blast!
We got up early to try to catch the sun rise in Auckland. The clouds failed to cooperate, but we had a good hike and prayed morning prayer on the beach!
A neat view from the beach
"Trekking" in the wilds around the beach

The sign at the beach picnic area. I vote that we ditch our word "trash" and immediately swap it for "rubbish"!
Fish n' chips on the beach. I love the lack of pretense; the restaurant just wrapped it all up in news paper and that was that.
On to the Eucharistic convention this weekend. This is the first sacristy with a Led Zeppelin poster in it in the history of Catholicism.
The Sisters of Life and Fr. Liszeck from Kibeho leading the convention in adoration.
Now it is off to Hobbiton, a national park, and some exploring for my final three days in New Zealand. God bless!
classic comment about the Led Zep poster! We are all wondering if thats a bio of the band underneath? If so, that is totally NOT rubbish! Have fun and safe travels.
ReplyDeleteWhere are the sheep? I thought New Zealand was lousy with sheep. Hope you're enjoying your trek.

Enjoy the rest of your stay here in NZ Father... I have checked some videos of our Cardinal from the Philippines - Cardinal Luis Tagle and he supports the use of internet towards (new) evangelization... FTW
