Simple Joy Of Belonging
What’s on your bucket list? For Father Gene, it’s not skydiving—it’s dinner with a few friends, sharing stories and laughter over a simple meal.
In today’s FatherSide Chat, he reminds us: life’s best moments are often small and shared.
Loneliness touches everyone at times, but it doesn’t have to have the final word. Father Gene reflects on how purposeful gathering—small, intentional moments of connection—can grow into real community, offering space to listen, share, laugh, and walk through life together.
Some lessons arrive softly, reminding us that caring for others begins with caring for ourselves. Father Gene shares why creating sacred space for “me” isn’t selfish—it’s essential—and how learning to say “I can’t” can become an act of love.
