Charles and friend

23 November is eight days from 1 December, the feast day of Blessed Charles de Foucauld. This means that a novena for Brother Charles, contemplative in the world who wanted to “see Jesus in all people”, could begin today. At least it’s a reasonable day to do so.

Just a suggestion or a notice! For my part, I think this is a wonderful way to grow in the desire to be a contemplative in the mud.
