Team Spiritual Care: Get in the Way

Sister Kateri Theriault

In the Easter season we recall how the faith grew in its earliest days. It wasn’t easy. The Way of following Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah and Risen Lord was opposed just as Jesus himself had been, and by the same forces, the organized religion of the day. When those powers imprisoned the apostles for invoking The Name, God’s angel whispered to them, “Go and take your place in the temple area, and tell the people everything about this life” and freed them from prison to do so. Today, that same spirit is still breathing and blowing as she will—and not always in accord with what has been organized or established.
