Hello Schuylkill News readers. Thank you for coming!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

On this “January Epiphanies” theme, let’s first reflect for a moment on the quote seen in the article:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cWho can listen to a story of loneliness and despair without taking the risk of experiencing similar pains in his own heart and even losing his precious peace of mind? In short: Who can take away suffering without entering it?\u201d-Henri Nouwen (1932-1996)<\/span><\/p>\n

I encourage you to leave comments, thoughts, questions, or answer in reply to this question I now pose:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

*When has someone entered your life or struggles, to help you. Or, when have you done this for someone else?<\/span><\/span> <\/span>(Anonymous comments are welcome, too.) <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

*In your opinion, what are some things we learn from these times of surprising grace?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
