Carmel), St. Terese of Lisieux (Story of a Soul), St. Elizabeth of the Trinity (He is My Heaven); also books by Thomas Dubay.

The burning fire of Love within my heart is so intense, I have always thought that what I have experienced is normal? That Jesus speaks to everyone this way? It seems that I am an odd ball?

John, though I haven't found a Spiritual Director in this corner of the world - Nairobi, Kenya - the Booklet which I have found most helpful in my Spiritual Journey is "My Daily Bread" by the Confraternity of the Precious Blood. As you advise, fortnightly Confession, the daily 3.00 O'Clock Holy Hour of the Divine Mercy Devotion, Holy Adoration Hour of the Blessed Sacrament, followed by the Eucharistic Celebration and Holy Communion in addition to morning and night prayers preceeded by the Holy Rosary through our Catholic Radio Waumini is filling the void of not having a Spiritual Director. You are right. The Holy Spirit led me to join the most nourishing Cenacle of the Eucharistic Apostles of the Divine Mercy. I would recommend our Family Members to join this Outreach Ministry where it exists in their own countries. Please continue to pray for us to find a good Spiritual Directors. God bless you, Father Fr.

Bartunek is like having a spiritual director hold your hand each day by reading,thinking and applying the lights of the Gospel to your life. I have grown so much from this incredible book. It is like Jesus speaking to you through the writings of Fr. Bartunek. To read and then stop and listen was such a valuable lesson. Thank you Fr. Bartunek! The Better Part written by Fr.
