March 8, 2010: Mission Honduras

Beloved,

Our Mission Honduras is completed. I have journied to Haiti on many occasions. I have pictures of some of these poor people in my prayer books I use every day. The Poor remind me of the beauty of God’s creation even in the most poverty stricken, hungry, oppressive and seemingly hopeless places. The last two years I have had the honor of journeying with 24 pilgrims to Honduras on a Medical Mission. Although the people of Honduras are not as poor as the people of Haiti, there is something profound, something very deep about any encounter with the poor. This year I finally got a camera after a long lapse. Each picture is worth more than a million words, but I don’t have the words nor the energy to verbalize.

I invite you to prayerfully meditate on the eyes and heart of the poor.

God Bless you and have a wonderful week in God’s Awesome World.

Love, joy, peace,

Amor, Alegria, La Paz!

It is our privilege and great joy to have with catholicStewardsofCreation.com a blessed and holy-spirit filled priest who sees God in everything and everyone.

Father Ron Camarda is an ordained Roman Catholic priest in the Diocese of St. Augustine and also the Archdiocese of the Military which shows you how committed and hard he has worked in his vocation. He has received numerous commendations and achievement medals and is a ten year member of the American Counseling Association.

He is also the author of the widely successful and emotionally moving book titled TEAR in the DESERT which shares his experiences in Iraq as a Chaplain in the heart of war. His journal chronicles the names of 2,000 troops he met along the way and his experience at the Marine Surgical Hospital during the battle for Fallujah that forever changed him. Even today, he remains in touch with many of the families and survivors that he came to know through this experience.

He has appeared on EWTN and has been written about in Emmanuel Magazine, The St. Augustine Catholic and many newspapers across the country have carried his story.

We thank Father Ron for blessing this new website with his presence. Father Ron will have a featured weekly column and will also share his inspirations in each of our monthly Eagles Wings Newsletters.
