December 7, 2022A total of 24 confreres participated in the Fall Session of the TMAC program at the Redemptorist Retreat Center in Oconomowoc. TMAC Co-Directors Fr. Pete Schavitz and Fr. Bob Wojtek (Baltimore) and Thomas Ha (Extra-Patriam) welcomed 11 confreres from the Extra-Patriam Vice Province, 10 from the Baltimore Province, and three from the Denver Province.
This was the first gathering for Royce Thomas (Baltimore) and Thien Hoang (Denver). Fr. Jack Kingsbury, North American Conference Coordinator, shared his recollections of the General Chapter, and discussed how some decisions impact the North American Conference.
Fr. Pete gave a presentation on various aspects of Redemptorist mission preaching, beginning with a historical perspective and leading into some very practical points.
The group extended a blessing to Br. Thomas Ho (Extra-Patriam), who has finished the program. Fr. Thomas Ha, who has been accompanying confreres of the Extra-Patriam for the past seven years, also received a farewell blessing. He was recently elected Vice Provincial Vicar of the Extra-Patriam Vice Province.
The next gathering is scheduled at the Mother of Perpetual Help Retreat Center in Houston on May 15-19, 2023.
