Dear Anne, Alleluia! Your brother has had a tremendous effect on my life as a priest, through his beloved Encounter With Silence Retreat ministry! I am very blessed to have met him and begin the journey of a cherished friendship since my first retreat in 2007! As I lift up thanksgiving prayers to the Lord for Father Frank, I also am praying for you and your family; may the Lord's consoling peace be with you as your reflect upon your brother experiencing at last "The Day of the Lord!" With love and prayers, Father John-Mary Tompkins, O.S.B.
