Worshippers recite the Lord s Prayer during a Mass celebrated in honor of the 100th anniversary of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church Dec. 9, 2017, in San Diego. The church was first founded to serve the recently arrived Mexican population in San Diego, and has become a cornerstone of the local Latino Catholic community.

Last Saturday, I was able to join the Academy of Catholic Hispanic Theologians of the United States, or ACHTUS, for the second day of their two-day virtual colloquium. These virtual gatherings are never as much fun as visiting with old friends in person, but I am still glad I attended because the focus of the meeting was both refreshing and, I suspect, seminal.
Of my dying,
And when I am not
You will have taken me.
Dunne spent his life teaching and writing to help others experience what he had experienced. His vocation and that of St. Augustine were similar. Just as Augustine had aimed “to kindle the light of things eternal in human hearts no longer supported by temporal institutions which had seemed eternal but which were crashing on all sides,” says Martin Versfeld, so did Dunne. Thinking of contemplation as “love’s mind,” he said, “that is essentially the work of love’s mind also in our own times. Now too love’s mind has ‘to rekindle hearts in a world that grows chill.’” He is a theologian to guide us through our present darkness.
