Episode 46 of the Upon This Rock Podcast with Father Don Farnan

Jeff Angold and Kevin Connell have been friends since their early school days. Though they had different experiences, family backgrounds, schools, groups of friends, jobs, and activities, they stayed connected at every stage of life. After childhood, bachelorhood, fatherhood, and now enjoying the stage of being granddads, they offer commentary on what they learned from those who gave them life and taught them love and what they hope to give their offspring who follow them in a not-yet-revealed world. One of their common interests, hunting, unites them with ancestors who respected the land upon which we dwell and God’s imprint upon nature.

Welcome To Farnan

Spirituality Center!

Welcome to the Farnan Spirituality Center (FSC) website! “Welcome” means to come and be made well. It is my hope that you will be made well—or that your life is enhanced—by a closer walk with the Good Lord. Spiritual encounters, from group retreats or discussions to one-on-one counsel or direction, are good ways to strengthen our relationship with God and, subsequently, with others.

I invite you to peruse the website and indicate your interest, sign up for the monthly newsletter, or sign up for an upcoming retreat. And let us pray for one another.

It Must Be This Way

My sixty-five-year-old body increasingly reminds me of my age.  For the past several months, I limped around because my left side, from hip to ankle, has been hurting and dragging.  For the first time in my life, walking and climbing stairs was painful.  In retrospect and to my detriment, I probably never gave my body the attention it deserves.  A parishioner recommended an eastern massage therapist to help me.  While digging in to loosen scar tissue and break up adhesions, the Chinese doctor softly said, “I know it hurts, but it must be this way.”  Read the full post.

Our Community Loves Us

"I truly appreciate the use of musical references and other writings which you often use. I have been blessed to have attended small dinners and discussions where you have often used these same references to engage attendees. It always has left me with soul searching and a path to answering some very deep questions. Thank you for providing some more stepping stones."
