Blog Appreciation
By Paul Campbell SJ U.S.A. 15.08.2022
For ten glorious and very enjoyable years, I was the Publisher of Loyola Press of Chicago. (A side benefit of this position was that I amassed enough frequent flier miles to visit my MMM sister several times both in Sao Paulo and Salvador de Bahia, Brazil.) At some point during my time in Chicago, I foolishly volunteered to write a blog five days a week called “People for Others.” I got to the point where I would bang my head on my desk because I simply couldn’t think of another Ignatian thought that I hadn’t already expressed.It was, nonetheless, an honour and a privilege to share my spiritual vision and journey with several hundred — and sometimes thousands — of readers each day. It’s in this context that I tell you how much I relish this MMM blog. I am constantly informed, inspired and consoled by the energy, enthusiasm, and wonderful work of MMMs across the world. I appreciate and support the many important missions that members of MMM have embraced in so many places.
Simply put, MMM is a blessing for our troubled and fractious world. Knowing that MMMs are at work in places where God’s love and grace face grave challenges helps me to believe that the Gospel is being proclaimed. Please join me in praying that our good and gracious God will continue to bless the work of their hands.
