Kerry Watrin, MD, Residency Program Director
Home Town: Kennewick, Washington
Special Interests: My special interests include adult learning styles, transition cycles, practical use of the EHR in prevention and chronic disease management, obstetrics and international health.
Program Director Thoughts: Family Medicine is where the magic happens. It is a gift to accompany you on the apprenticeship of the Family Doc journey. We learn, unlearn, and learn anew over a lifetime, and at TFM, we learn from each other. I am privileged to be a member of the TFM team with common goals of service and full spectrum training. I trust the collective wisdom of our village in decision making. We are each accountable to excellence while executing our individual roles. The work is fun on our well functioning team. Our dedication to achieving the best health for our patients allows for mutual healing and wellness.
Kerry was raised in Kennewick, Washington, and attended the University of Washington for both undergrad and medical school. He has completed the UW Faculty Development Fellowship as well as the National Institute for Program Director Development. His past experiences include working as a Maryknoll Lay Missioner in Shinyanga Tanzania, locums work in family medicine, and sabbatical work in a level 1 emergency department. He serves as the Program Director at TFM, the Vice President of the UW Network of Family Medicine residencies, a member of the MultiCare Quality Committee and Safety Council, and as Advisory Faculty for ALSO. Kerry's most valued award is the Bill Downey Award of L'arche Tahoma Hope. He believes that it reminds him to be "little centered." Kerry's medical interests include newborn care, learning styles, and the process of learning. He looks forward to the two times every year when he gets the opportunity to eat Kansas City Barbeque.
Kerry lives in a log cabin on two acres of wooded paradise. There he can listen to the evening wind in the evergreens at sunset with his soulmate, their two wonderful young adult children, one dog, three sheep, and a passel of cats. Kerry enjoys hiking and gardening, and his play toy is a John Deere tractor in a large garden. Each October he and his wife host a pumpkin carving contest and Halloween party.
Joseph Angel, MD
Melinda Behrens, MD, Pediatrician
Rebecca L. Benko, MD, Fellowship Program Director
Home Town: Croswell, Michigan
Medical School: Michigan State University of Human Medicine
Special Interests: Colposcopy OB, and Surgery Skills
Becky was raised in a small community in eastern Michigan called Croswell. Her first experience with the medical field was the local family doc that did everything, including delivering babies, making hospital rounds and taking care of all members of the family. After she decided to pursue a career in medicine she realized that what she really wanted to do was be a full spectrum family physician, much like the physician in her small town. She went to Michigan State University for her undergraduate studies and received a BS in Medical Technology before continuing to Michigan State College of Human Medicine for her M.D. degree. After residency she went on to practice in Newport, a small rural community in eastern Washington. In Newport she did everything from surgical obstetrics (including cesarean sections) to nursing home rounds to working in the emergency department to full spectrum outpatient care to serving as a liaison to the local public health department.
Becky joined Tacoma Family Medicine in 2002 to pursue a career in teaching, a position that allows her to continue to practice full spectrum family medicine while also incorporating her love for teaching. She still enjoys taking care of all family members and has a particular interest in women's health and maternity care. She serves as the obstetrics liaison for the residency and serves on multiple OB committees, including Women's Services, Perinatology Clinical Improvement Team, and the OB Collaborative. She continues to be passionate about rural health care and serving underserved communities.
In her free time Becky enjoys reading (everything), jewelry making, cooking, hiking, biking, swimming, running, and doing an occasional "mud run." For a number of years she competed in triathlons. She is married to a pediatric surgeon, and they have two wonderful children and a dog. They lead very busy lives and are always working on balance, but Becky says they wouldn't trade it for anything!

Alan Gill, MD
Home Town: St. Louis, Missouri
Medical School: University of Michigan
Special Interests: Developmental Disabilities and Rural Medicine
Alan followed a winding tour of "M" states before getting it right and landing in Washington. He grew up in Michigan and Missouri, completed undergrad and medical school at the University of Michigan (Go Blue!), and did his residency at the University of Missouri, Columbia. Alan then worked for Indian Health Service with the Blackfeet in Montana, which was a marvelous experience. If you have not been where Glacier National Park meets the high plains, it is a must. He returned to Fulton, Missouri, for several years to teach at a rural teaching site for the University of Missouri. In 1999, his wife asked him, "Why are we living in Missouri?" Lacking a good answer, they moved to Tacoma in 2000, drawn by family and by TFM's mission of training physicians to serve in rural and urban communities in need. They have certainly found their home, with great colleagues and residents, meaningful work, an ideal place to raise their now grown family, and endless outdoor opportunities.
For fun, Alan must be active, from running and weight training to camping, hiking, and back packing. Peaks still have a particular appeal. He likes occasional bucket listers, having tried spelunking (including vertical caves), sky diving, and the calculated risk of a hot air balloon ride with one of his sons, who has autism. He and his family enjoy travel, which they spice up by buying random trips at charity auctions. Alan also has participated in a yearly medical mission trip to Honduras since 2009, and he often takes residents with him.
Alan loves the entire breadth of family medicine. His greatest passions are caring for people with developmental disabilities and their families, and for supporting residents and fellows who plan to practice in rural areas. In 2018, he helped open MultiCare's Adult Developmental Clinic, and now dedicates part of his time to directing that clinic.
Yvette Gross, DO

Medical School: Michigan State University of Osteopathic Medicine
Special Interests: Medication Assisted Treatment of Addiction, Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy, Obstetrics and Newborn Care Including C-Sections, Procedural Medicine
Yvette was born in Australia and life would eventually lead her to Michigan. She completed her undergraduate degree and then worked as a direct care worker for children with poor coping and communication skills in the respite foster care system. While working she found that there was a huge need for underserved primary care and was intrigued by the osteopathic philosophy of treating the patient as a whole so, she packed her bags for Michigan States University of College of Osteopathic Medicine. During her time there she realized she wished to attend underserved populations by becoming a full spectrum family provider, caring from womb to tomb and went on to Maine Dartmouth Family Medicine Residency where she started practicing rural primary care.
After residency Yvette moved on to Chicago to complete a Maternal Child Health Fellowship, which furthered her knowledge in high risk obstetrics, neonatal care and cesarean section training and allowed her to treat patients in an underserved urban environment. She then went on to become fellowship and residency faculty in Chicago, however, was lured away by the outdoors.
Yvette initially joined MultiCare working as a full spectrum FP/OB, though she soon realized she missed teaching, joined Tacoma Family Medicine in 2018 first as a preceptor for the OMT clinic and subsequently as a core faculty member.
Throughout both her residency and fellowship Yvette especially enjoined treating patients both pregnant and not in the field of medication assisted treatment for addiction and with her training in the osteopathic philosophy and manipulative therapy has been able to provide alternate treatments while supporting their sobriety from opiates.
Yvette has also made it a part of her practice to participate in medical missions with groups and on her own to Haiti, Guatemala, Peru and Honduras.

career needs; gender and sport; human resource management; midcareer
Today's workforce, with trends toward aging and greater gender diversity, looks dramatically different than past decades, creating a need to more closely examine the midcareer stages of employees. In sport, midcareer head coaches have developed a broad skill set and an ability to manage both internal and external stakeholders. Thus, they are valuable, experienced employees who have successfully navigated the coaching profession. Using the Kaleidoscope Career Model as a framework, this study explored male and female head coaches' career experiences, needs, and management strategies in the midcareer stages. The findings indicate that coaches follow an alpha career pattern, prioritizing authenticity over balance and challenge. Yet, the participants suggested different approaches to achieving authenticity, balance, and challenge within the midcareer stages, which may be more nuanced than traditionally expected. Understanding these needs and management strategies are a necessary first step toward more nuanced theoretical understandings and customized human resource management plans that will enhance career longevity and performance.

Vortech provides the best performance while maintaining a margin of safety that anticipates most driving conditions that the customer may encounter. They certainly could tune more aggressively to add a few extra horsepower, however, they feel that customer satisfaction would suffer in the long run. Additionally, with Vortech's compressor efficiency and charge cooler systems, comparable kit performance exceeds competitors' on-the-edge-systems.

Adam Schiff Goes After the President in Impeachment Report
Posted By David Kamioner On December 3, 2019 @ 4:36 PM In Constitutional Freedoms,Drain the Swamp,Election 2020,Politics | No Comments
The Democratic majority of the House Intelligence Committee has released its report from the impeachment inquiry — and it is no surprise it is not flattering to the president.
The ideological and partisan stamp of Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif). is evident throughout the tome.
At over 300 pages long, the compendium of hearsay and biased statements is what the Democrats will present to the Dem-stacked House Judiciary Committee as the basis for impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.
The report claims, "President Trump's scheme subverted U.S. foreign policy toward Ukraine and undermined our national security in favor of two politically motivated investigations that would help his presidential reelection campaign … The president engaged in this course of conduct for the benefit of his own presidential re-election, to harm the election prospects of a political rival, and to influence our nation's upcoming presidential election to his advantage."
"In doing so, the president placed his own personal and political interests above the national interests of the United States, sought to undermine the integrity of the U.S. presidential election process, and endangered U.S. national security."
Schiff also tweeted the following:
The impeachment inquiry uncovered overwhelming and uncontested evidence that President Trump abused the powers of his office to solicit foreign interference in our election for his own personal, political gain.

— Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) December 3, 2019 [2]
The White House forcefully responded, "At the end of a one-sided sham process, Chairman Schiff and the Democrats utterly failed to produce any evidence of wrongdoing by President Trump," White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said.
"This report reflects nothing more than their frustrations. Chairman Schiff's report reads like the ramblings of a basement blogger straining to prove something when there is evidence of nothing."
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), a member of both the Intel and Judiciary Committees, responded to the Democrat report as well in this tweet.
Doesn't matter what the Dems write. 4 facts will never change:
-The call transcript shows no linkage
-President Trump and President Zelensky both say no pressure
-Ukraine didn't know aid was held up at the time of the call
-Ukraine never took any action to get aid released (1/3)
— Rep. Jim Jordan (@Jim_Jordan) December 3, 2019 [3]
The petulant and frustrated tone of the Dem report is understandable for one key reason.
After weeks of grandstanding and hearsay, the Dems have not made a dent in the president's support.
His poll numbers have held steady — and even climbed to a small degree.
The polling for the impeachment push also shows a gradual decline in terms of support for impeachment and for removing the president from office.
Those numbers have put the GOP on the offensive going into Wednesday's House Judiciary Committee hearing — and have even put air into the censure boomlet floating around D.C. the past week.
The pressure on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) not to endanger Dems in swing House districts that Trump won in 2016, where constituents may not take well to removing Trump from the presidency, will be enormous.
By ignoring it and trudging on to a full House vote, she risks the Dem House majority and thus her own speakership.
If that is the price hard-Left Dems are demanding from her not to go into open rebellion — it will be a costly bill come November 2020.

It's fall and a time when you can use leaves in fun activities. Setting up a sensory bin with leaves and kitchen utensils is a great way to introduce signs of the new season to children and to work on their all-important fine motor skills.
Sensory bins can be big or small, making them ideal for solo or group activities.
We took a trip to our local woods to collect our leaves. While we gathered them, we talked about and looked for signs of Fall around us. Getting out into nature is great way to gets hands on when introducing your child to the changing seasons.
On our return I loaded our leaves into a plastic tub and laid out a selection of large kitchen utensils for my daughter to use to explore the contents of the sensory bin.
She began with the tongs, which needed a good strong squeeze, making them an excellent tool to work on strengthening her grip.
She then moved onto the whisk. This gave her wrists a really good work out, as she moved the leaves around and around the tub.
Next up was the ladle, which worked on her scooping and pouring skills. It also got her imagination going, as she pretended to be serving "leaf soup" to her "friends".
Finally she gave all of her leaves a good squash down with her potato masher, giving her whole hand a final work out in the process.
1. You could add some water over your leaves and turn your sensory bin into some sensory soup. Add in some plastic bowls and you have a pretend tea party all ready to go.
2. You could use your leaves in some arts and crafts activities. You could get the glue out and make a leaf collage or fetch the crayons and enjoy some leaf rubbing.
Whether your leaves are changing colors or are green, your children can enjoy some fine motor sensory play this fall.

Last week, the Meet in Ireland team rolled out MICE training programmes that will help business tourism providers to maximise the opportunities available in business tourism.
The programme was provided in five locations - Dublin, Galway, Clare, Kerry, and Cork. This was done in partnership with the Regional Convention Bureaus and covered an introduction to MICE tourism, a blueprint for site inspections and best practice in preparing and responding to requests for proposals.
The training, delivered by Patrick Delaney of SoolNua, was well-attended nationally and well-received by attendees.
Niall Kelly of Blackrock's Radisson Blu Hotel attended the Dublin event and commented "I found today's workshop really useful. It gave an opportunity to meet other sales colleagues in the industry and see what their concerns are, what they are working on etc.
"It was also really good to get Patrick's insight and his take, as an expert in his field, on the latest trends internationally."

Sunday Mass Online : Feast of the Holy Family Jesus, Mary and Joseph : Sun. December 31, 2017 - #Eucharist
The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph
Lectionary: 17
Reading 1SIR 3:2-6, 12-14
God sets a father in honor over his children;
a mother's authority he confirms over her sons.
Whoever honors his father atones for sins,
and preserves himself from them.
When he prays, he is heard;
he stores up riches who reveres his mother.
Whoever honors his father is gladdened by children,
and, when he prays, is heard.
Whoever reveres his father will live a long life;
he who obeys his father brings comfort to his mother.
My son, take care of your father when he is old;
grieve him not as long as he lives.
Even if his mind fail, be considerate of him;
revile him not all the days of his life;
kindness to a father will not be forgotten,
firmly planted against the debt of your sins
—a house raised in justice to you.
OrGN 15:1-6; 21:1-3
The word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying:
"Fear not, Abram!
I am your shield;
I will make your reward very great."
But Abram said,
"O Lord GOD, what good will your gifts be,
if I keep on being childless
and have as my heir the steward of my house, Eliezer?"
Abram continued,
"See, you have given me no offspring,
and so one of my servants will be my heir."
Then the word of the LORD came to him:
"No, that one shall not be your heir;
your own issue shall be your heir."
The Lord took Abram outside and said,
"Look up at the sky and count the stars, if you can.
Just so," he added, "shall your descendants be."
Abram put his faith in the LORD,
who credited it to him as an act of righteousness.
The LORD took note of Sarah as he had said he would;
he did for her as he had promised.
Sarah became pregnant and bore Abraham a son in his old age,
at the set time that God had stated.
Abraham gave the name Isaac to this son of his
whom Sarah bore him.
Responsorial PsalmPS 128:1-2, 3, 4-5
R. (cf. 1) Blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk in his ways.
Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD,
who walks in his ways!
For you shall eat the fruit of your handiwork;
blessed shall you be, and favored.
R. Blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk in his ways.
Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine
in the recesses of your home;
your children like olive plants
around your table.
Behold, thus is the man blessed
who fears the LORD.
The LORD bless you from Zion:
may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem
all the days of your life.
OrPS 105:1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 8-9
R. (7a , 8a) The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.
Give thanks to the LORD, invoke his name;
make known among the nations his deeds.
Sing to him, sing his praise,
proclaim all his wondrous deeds.
R. The Lord remembers his covenant for ever.
Glory in his holy name;
rejoice, O hearts that seek the LORD!
Look to the LORD in his strength;
constantly seek his face.
You descendants of Abraham, his servants,
sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!
He, the LORD, is our God;
throughout the earth his judgments prevail.
He remembers forever his covenant
which he made binding for a thousand generations
which he entered into with Abraham
and by his oath to Isaac.
Reading 2COL 3:12-21
Put on, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved,
heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience,
bearing with one another and forgiving one another,
if one has a grievance against another;
as the Lord has forgiven you, so must you also do.
And over all these put on love,
that is, the bond of perfection.
And let the peace of Christ control your hearts,
the peace into which you were also called in one body.
And be thankful.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly,
as in all wisdom you teach and admonish one another,
singing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs
with gratitude in your hearts to God.
And whatever you do, in word or in deed,
do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Wives, be subordinate to your husbands,
as is proper in the Lord.
Husbands, love your wives,
and avoid any bitterness toward them.
Children, obey your parents in everything,
for this is pleasing to the Lord.
Fathers, do not provoke your children,
so they may not become discouraged.
OrCOL 3:12-17
OrHEB 11:8, 11-12, 17-19
By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place
that he was to receive as an inheritance;
he went out, not knowing where he was to go.
By faith he received power to generate,
even though he was past the normal age
—and Sarah herself was sterile—
for he thought that the one who had made the promise was trustworthy.
So it was that there came forth from one man,
himself as good as dead,
descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky
and as countless as the sands on the seashore.
By faith Abraham, when put to the test, offered up Isaac,
and he who had received the promises was ready to offer
his only son,
of whom it was said,
"Through Isaac descendants shall bear your name."
He reasoned that God was able to raise even from the dead,
and he received Isaac back as a symbol.
AlleluiaCOL 3:15A, 16A
Let the peace of Christ control your hearts;
let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.
OrHEB 1:1-2
In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets;
in these last days, he has spoken to us through the Son.
GospelLK 2:22-40
When the days were completed for their purification
according to the law of Moses,
They took him up to Jerusalem
to present him to the Lord,
just as it is written in the law of the Lord,
Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord,
and to offer the sacrifice of
a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons,
in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord.
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon.
This man was righteous and devout,
awaiting the consolation of Israel,
and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit
that he should not see death
before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
He came in the Spirit into the temple;
and when the parents brought in the child Jesus
to perform the custom of the law in regard to him,
He took him into his arms and blessed God, saying:
"Now, Master, you may let your servant go
in peace, according to your word,
for my eyes have seen your salvation,
which you prepared in sight of all the peoples,
a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and glory for your people Israel."
The child's father and mother were amazed at what was said about him;
and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother,
"Behold, this child is destined
for the fall and rise of many in Israel,
and to be a sign that will be contradicted
—and you yourself a sword will pierce—
so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."
There was also a prophetess, Anna,
the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher.
She was advanced in years,
having lived seven years with her husband after her marriage,
and then as a widow until she was eighty-four.
She never left the temple,
but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer.
And coming forward at that very time,
she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child
to all who were awaiting the redemption of Jerusalem.
When they had fulfilled all the prescriptions
of the law of the Lord,
they returned to Galilee,
to their own town of Nazareth.
The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom;
and the favor of God was upon him.
OrLK 2:22, 39-40
to present him to the Lord.
Saint December 31 : St. Sylvester : #Pope
31 December 335 at Rome, Italy
Feroleto Antico, Italy
Saint Sylvester I, also spelled Silvester (born , Rome [Italy]—died 335, Rome; Western feast day December 31, Eastern feast day January 2), pope from 314 to 335, whose long pontificate saw the beginnings of the Christian Roman Empire. A presbyter when elected to succeed Pope St. Miltiades (Melchiades), Sylvester was consecrated on Jan. 31, 314. The most important event of his reign was the Council of Nicaea (May 325), which condemned the Alexandrian Christian priest Arius, founder of Arianism, a heretical doctrine teaching that the Son was neither equal with God the Father nor eternal. While the Roman emperor Constantine I the Great favoured Christianity and was a major controller of its ecclesiastical affairs, neither he nor his immediate successors gave any official recognition to papal primacy over the church. Thus, it was a rare and significant exception when Sylvester was accorded a preeminent role in the Arian crisis. Although invited, he did not attend the Council of Nicaea personally but was represented by two legates, who were treated with great honour and respect yet did not preside at the debates. According to subsequent legend, Sylvester converted and baptized Constantine, who was the first Roman emperor to become a Christian, and miraculously cured him of leprosy, for which the emperor allegedly gave him the Donatio Constantini (Donation of Constantine), a grant of spiritual supremacy over the Eastern patriarchates and over all matters of faith and worship as well as temporal dominion over Rome and the entire Western world. The Donation is now universally admitted to be an 8th-century forgery, but it was important in the development of the medieval theory of church and state. Sylvester is believed to have built at the Cemetery of St. Priscilla on the Via Salaria a church, where he was buried. His relics were transferred in 762 by Pope St. Paul I to the Church of San Silvestro in Capite, now the national church of English Catholics in Rome. Text source Britannica
#PopeFrancis Special message to thousands of Taizé youth "promote a culture of mercy based on the rediscovery of encounter with others"
Pope Francis has sent a message to young people from across Europe who are attending the annual Taizé Community Meeting for Young Adults taking place in Basel. He focussed on the need to promote a culture of encounter and to pursue the path of Christian unity.
By Linda Bordoni
Pope Francis has sent a message of blessing and encouragement to the thousands of young people gathered in the Swiss city of Basel for the Taizé Community's annual European Meeting of Young Adults. In the message, signed by Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Pope invites participants to spread the joy of the gospel and to stay connected to the Lord by praying and listening to his Word so that he may help them develop their talents in order to promote a culture of encounter.
The Pope also recalled the marking, in 2017, of the 500th anniversary of the Reformation and invited the young people to continue to be enriched by the diversity of the gifts given to all disciples of Christ and to show the world that the Gospel unites all Christians beyond the wounds of their divisions.
Please find below the working translation of the Pope's message:
Dear young people,
You have come from all over Europe to Basel which is at the crossroads of Switzerland, France and Germany, to participate in the 40th European Meeting organized and animated by the Community of Taizé.
Theme of Meeting
You are driven by the desire to deepen, together, the true sources of joy. And 'joy' is the theme that will guide your reflections and enlighten your prayer.
In this perspective, Pope Francis wants to assure you of his great spiritual closeness. Indeed, as he wrote in the Apostolic Exhortation 'Evangelii Gaudium': "The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of those who meet Jesus. Those who let themselves be saved by him are free from sin, sadness, inner emptiness, isolation. With Jesus Christ joy is born and reborn forever".
The Holy Father is delighted to know that you have chosen to participate in this meeting to welcome and deepen the message of Jesus which is a source of joy for all those who open their hearts to him. And he thanks you for responding to the call of the Lord who brings you together in the joy of his love.
Culture of mercy
The Pope encourages you to live in this joy that comes from your friendship with Jesus that never closes us to others or to the suffering of this world. And he invites you to stay connected with the Lord, by praying and listening to his Word, so that he may help you develop your talents in order to "promote a culture of mercy based on the rediscovery of encounter with others, a culture in which no one looks at another with indifference or turns away from the suffering of our brothers and sisters."(Apostolic Letter Misericordia et misera, n.20).
Culture of encounter
The 500th anniversary of the Reformation was marked during the course of the just-ended year, and the Pope asks the Holy Spirit to help you, young Protestants, Catholics and Orthodox, to rejoice and to enrich each other with the diversity of the gifts given to all disciples of Christ, and to show that the joy of the Gospel unites us beyond the wounds of our divisions. He also encourages you not to be afraid to walk the paths of brotherhood so that your meeting in Basel will make visible the joyful communion that springs from the source of the overflowing heart of the Lord.
By entrusting yourselves to the Lord, so that you can sing with the Virgin Mary the marvels of his love which is the source of joy, the Holy Father bestows his heartfelt blessing upon you, young people participating in this meeting, upon the Brothers of Taizé as well as upon all those in Switzerland, France and Germany who welcome you.
The Taizè Community
The Taizé Community is an ecumenical Christian monastic order founded in 1940 by Brother Roger Schutz, a Reformed Protestant, who wrote the guidelines for the community's life. The community has become one of the world's most important sites of Christian pilgrimage, with a focus on youth. Owing to the founder's commitment, since its inception the community has evolved into an important site for Catholic-Lutheran ecumenism. Brother Alois succeeded as prior after his predecessor's death in 2005.

The Sixth Day in the Octave of Christmas
Reading 11 JN 2:12-17
I am writing to you, children,
because your sins have been forgiven for his name's sake.
I am writing to you, fathers,
because you know him who is from the beginning.
I am writing to you, young men,
because you have conquered the Evil One.
I write to you, children,
because you know the Father.
I write to you, fathers,
I write to you, young men,
because you are strong and the word of God remains in you,
and you have conquered the Evil One.
Do not love the world or the things of the world.
If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
For all that is in the world,
sensual lust, enticement for the eyes, and a pretentious life,
is not from the Father but is from the world.
Yet the world and its enticement are passing away.
But whoever does the will of God remains forever.
Responsorial PsalmPS 96:7-8A, 8B-9, 10
R. (11a) Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice!
Give to the LORD, you families of nations,
give to the LORD glory and praise;
give to the LORD the glory due his name!
R. Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice!
Bring gifts, and enter his courts;
worship the LORD in holy attire.
Tremble before him, all the earth.
Say among the nations: The LORD is king.
He has made the world firm, not to be moved;
he governs the peoples with equity.
A holy day has dawned upon us.
Come, you nations, and adore the Lord.
Today a great light has come upon the earth.

Saint December 30 : Bl. Eugenia Ravasco : #Foundress
Bl. Eugenia Ravasco
FOUNDRESS
Feast: December 30
Feast Day: December 30
Born: 4 January 1845 in Milan, Italy
Died: 30 December 1900 in Genoa, Italy
Eugenia Ravasco was born on 4 January 1845 in Milan, Italy, the third of Francesco Matteo and Carolina Mozzoni Frosconi's six children. When she was three years old her mother died and her father moved to Genoa where his two brothers lived, taking with him his eldest son, Ambrose, and the youngest daughter, Elisa. Eugenia remained in Milan with her Aunt Marietta Anselmi, who became a second mother to her and carefully educated her in the faith.
In 1852, the family was reunited in Genoa and following her father's death in March 1855, Eugenia went to live for some time with her uncle Luigi Ravasco and her aunt Elisa and their 10 children. Luigi Ravasco was careful to give his nephews and nieces a Christian upbringing. He was well aware of the anticlericalism on the rise in Italy at the time and of the efforts of the Freemasons, and was especially worried about Eugenia's brother, Ambrose, who had come under the influence of this spreading problem.
From early adolescence, Eugenia was deeply influenced by her uncle's responsible Christian example and his generosity towards the poor. Unlike her shy younger sister, Elisa, Eugenia was expansive and energetic and loved to serve others. Eucharistic worship, together with devotion to the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, became an essential part of her spirituality.
On 21 June 1855, Eugenia made her First Communion and Confirmation in St Ambrose's Church and from that day on, whenever she passed a church she would enter it to pray. God was preparing her for greater things.
In December 1862, her Uncle died, leaving Eugenia with the responsibility of caring for the family. With the help of God and the advice of Canon Salvatore Magnasco, she valiantly faced the problems caused by her brother. Aunt Marietta joined Eugenia to help the family. Both made every effort to rescue Ambrose, but without success.
Although her aunt wanted her to marry, Eugenia prayed that the Lord would show her the path to take, since she felt a growing inner call to religious life. On 31 May 1863 she received an answer as she entered the Church of St Sabina to pray. Fr Giacinto Bianchi, an ardent missionary of the Sacred Heart, was celebrating Mass. When she heard him say to the faithful, "Is there no one out there who feels called to dedicate themselves to doing good for love of the Heart of Jesus?", Eugenia understood that God was speaking to her, calling her to him through the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Eugenia found a spiritual director to help her discern what she was feeling, and shortly thereafter she began to teach catechism in the parish church to the disadvantaged young girls of the city. Her aunt and those close to her were against this, especially because these girls were unmannered and street-wise. But Eugenia persevered, accepting with patience the humiliations that she received from all sides. Little by little, she won the young girls over, organizing day trips and games for them and gaining their trust. She reached out to the most uneducated, neglected girls who, left to themselves, were in danger of going down the same errant path as her brother Ambrose.
As time went on, Eugenia felt that God was calling her to found a religious order that would form "honest citizens in society and saints in Heaven". Other young women had also joined her in this effort. On 6 December 1868, when she was 23 years old, she founded the religious congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Canon (later Archbishop) Magnasco had prepared her carefully and she continued, together with the sisters, to teach catechism and to open schools.
Despite open hostility towards the Church and the activity of the Freemasons, Mother Eugenia opened in 1878 a school for girls to give them Christian instruction and to prepare "Christian teachers" for the future. She proved courageous in the face of the persecution and ridicule she received from the local press. She also gave particular attention to the dying, the imprisoned and those away from the Church.
Notwithstanding her poor health, she travelled around Italy and to France and Switzerland, opening new communities and attracting religious vocations.
In 1882 the Congregation received diocesan approval and in 1884, together with her sisters, Mother Eugenia made her perpetual profession. She guided the foundations and her sisters with love and prudence, giving them as model the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Her apostolic ideal in life was "to burn with the desire to do good to others, especially to youth", and to "live in abbandonment to God and in the hands of Mary Immaculate". Mother Eugenia Ravasco died on 30 December 1900 in Genoa, consumed by illness. And in 1909 the Congregation she founded received Pontifical approval.
Today the Congregation of the Sisters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary (also known as the "Ravasco Institute") are present in Albania, Italy, Switzerland, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Paraguay, Venezuela, Africa and the Philippines. They continue their work in schools, parishes and missions and are especially dedicated to serving youth and the needy and to promoting the dignity of women.

O's Notes: Gabriele is a truly a global vocalist raised in Europe and now based on the New York jazz scene. She sings with a wide array of influences in several languages and different styles. Yet Tranchina puts her own slant on things. This is the case on the Latin classic "Samba De Una Nova Só" and "Solamente Pasión" with its strong mambo beat. Gabriele swings on "Today" one of several strong tunes written by her husband and pianist Joe Vincent Tranchina. Santi Debriano (b) is also among the strong musicians on the CD adding great solos on "Inútil Paisagem" and "Asato Maa". The album is more than a collage of different ideas; it is a balanced effort that is also well executed and enjoyable to listen to.


This course is an out and back, and will take you to some of the most beautiful and iconic landmarks in Griffith Park. It's a mixture of epic single track, and double track fire roads. It has about a 1/2 mile of pavement total, but otherwise is trail.
Run just past the bird sanctuary, and look for the little trail just past the chain link fence on your right. Go up this. Follow this all the way up for about a mile until you hit the top where it spits you out at mile 6.4, and you will now be just below Dante's view. This is a 5 way intersection, and where we call the Charlie Brown Christmas tree spot! Go up and to the RIGHT. My volunteers will direct you which way to go. You are now on MT Hollywood trail. Take this to Dante's view (water fountain) mile 6.6. This is your turn around spot! My volunteers here will direct you to turn around.
Run back down to the Charlie Brown Christmas tree. Take the same single track you came up all the way back down to the bird sanctuary aid station. Go left, and run a 1/4 mile back to the Riverside Trail. Go Left here! Follow this trail for another mile until you come to the intersection with the green shed (which will be on your left). Go right here on the paved road. Follow the road up and around to the left until you run back into Joe Klass water stop. Go through the aid station, and run a 1/4 mile back down to 5 points. Make a sharp right here on the Coolidge trail. Follow this for a mile until you get to the intersection of Coolidge trail and Lower Beacon Trail. Make a sharp left here. Follow this all the way back down to the paved road, and the Lower Beacon aid station. Go left here. Run a 1/4 mile, and make a left on the single track leading to the wooden stairs. Follow this back up to the upper Old Zoo trail, and go right. Follow this trail around to the left, and stay high on the upper Old Zoo trail. Follow this for about 3/4 of a mile until you see my signs and a volunteers directing you back to the finish. Turn right, and follow the single track back down to the big grass area under the old zoo. You are now finished!

Case Study: Movember
A conversation piece
Suicide is a huge problem.
Every 40 seconds someone in the world takes their own life.
It is the largest cause of death for men under 501.
And in Ireland, 4 in 5 people who die by suicide are men.
Discussing problems is not part of Irish culture for many men. We often tragically fail to reach out and ask for help when we need it most. Social isolation as a result of Covid-19 has compounded this.
In 2020, during the pandemic, Movember conducted research on men's mental health and discovered that 33% of men said they felt more isolated, with nearly 50% of them saying no one has checked to nd out how they are coping. Men's mental health was suffering, they were hungry for connection, yet didn't know how to talk about it.
Many studies have concluded that art can make an important contribution to positive mental health. Its 'healing power' lies in its capacity to tell human stories, stir emotions, inspire empathy and navigate complex situations.
So, if art has the power to communicate the things we don't know how to say, could we use its powerful undertone to empower men to break free from legacy burdens and start discussing their feelings?
Further inspiration from a quote by Eileen Miller, "Art can permeate the very deepest parts of us, where no words exist," combined with the definition of a 'conversation piece' – art whose unusual quality makes it a conversation starter in social settings – led us to our big idea.
In the circumstances, a standard advertising campaign wasn't going to cut it. What could we lean into to generate a volume of earned media, amplify our message and get it out there? We researched the pulling power of cultural icons to provoke the public's interest. Some of Ireland's most influential artists, icons and musicians volunteered to have a conversation about their own experiences of mental health and, working in pairs, created digital outdoor artworks inspired by it.
Getting the public's attention demanded we launch with something spectacular, something that had never been done before. We launched 'Conversation Piece' with 'Together We Stand', a massive digital outdoor projection onto the iconic Poolbeg Chimneys, a famous landmark on the skyline of Ireland's capital.
They were the perfect canvas to launch this simple but supportive message. They have stood together for the last 50 years, even surviving a planned demolition.
The launch was followed by seven collaborations with fourteen highly respected Irish artists and cultural icons that included Sebastian Barry, Vivienne Roche, Gavin Friday, Domino Whisker , Aches, Mund and Tiny Ark.
In a year when everyone was 'at home' and OOH collapsed due to lack of footfall, it felt counter-intuitive to develop an 'out of home' digital campaign. But the hauntingly empty streets of the City provided the perfect metaphor to display the work. This, combined with the sense of isolation, melancholy, and even hope in each artist's piece, reflected what many people themselves were also going through.
Short videos featuring powerful music, meaningful lyrics and personal stories from our artists accompanied each piece. Subsequent press interviews gave the artists an opportunity to share their own experiences and encourage others to share theirs. In The Irish Times, Irish Laureate Sebastian Barry referenced his own mental health issues;
"It interests me now [that] it never occurred to me to lift the phone and say, 'Can you help me?'. [With depression] all the beauties of the world, even drinking coffee with your spouse, are not available to you anymore. The slow replacement of those things can only happen through some form of dialogue, some form of conversation."
The iconic Samuel Beckett Bridge proved a fitting, final canvas. Set in the very heart of Dublin city, street artist Maser programmed poignant lyrics from Damian Dempsey's back catalogue and we broadcast them from the network of LED's installed into the bridge itself. 'Meet Me At The Bridge' spanned the river Liffey, joining the two sides of the city. Set against Damian's stirring music, this was a final metaphor to encourage people to meet half-way, and recognise that a conversation takes two people.
33% of men felt more isolated during the pandemic and nearly 50% said no one had asked how they were coping. We wanted to reach 1.625m of them. Although we don't know exactly how many of these men 'Conversation Piece' reached, by delivering a nationwide reach of 4.58m, including targeted reach in social, we should have reached a large proportion of those suffering in these pockets of isolation.
And where others stuck to the more traditional Movember fundraising model, our pivot outperformed every other European market and we managed to double donations, which will help fund vital men's health initiatives and research for the remainder of the pandemic.
Pandemic isolation risked intensifying male suicides in Ireland. Conversations save lives but starting them is the challenge.
We shed light on the importance of social connections and conversation by lighting up iconic Dublin landmarks with messages of solidarity.
The series featured collaborations with artists and designers such as Sebastian Barry, Vivienne Roche, Gavin Friday, Maser, Damien Dempsey, Domino Whisker, Aches, Mundy and Tiny Ark.
The campaign delivered reach of 4.5M, delivering 183,000 engagements, sparking many life-saving conversations and doubling annual donations to €4.9m.

Insecurity Creates Challenges for HIV Treatment in Southeast C.A.R.
Violence in the southeastern part of the Central African Republic, where five U.N. peacekeepers were killed this month, has made it tougher for HIV-positive residents in the remote, lawless region to get treatment.
The prevalence rate of HIV in southeastern C.A.R. is 13 percent, nearly three times the national average.
The migration of people between the bordering areas of South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo contributes to the spread of the disease in all three countries.
"Here, it's a crossing where everything converges. It's why the level of HIV is high," said Bienvenu Sapioko, a government nurse who works at the only hospital in Zemio. He said the rebels and refugees in the area also increase the high prevalence.
An internal U.N. report obtained by VOA found HIV rates increased following the arrival of the Ugandan security forces in the C.A.R. in 2009. The Ugandan and American forces tasked with tracking down Joseph Kony and his Lord's Resistance Army ended their mission in April and are heading home.
With prostitution, polygamy and effectively no state authority in the area, weak education contributes to the problem.
Stigma, superstition
"People believe in the power of nature and traditional doctors. So bush doctors, shamans are also very common in the community," said Olivier Pennec, the Doctors Without Borders project coordinator in Zemio.
Stigma compounds the problem.
"Before, the people didn't treat themselves. The people would hide the microbes, this disease," said Marcel Elonga, a community leader. They would hide and "speak about this parasite, parasite, parasite."
HIV-positive people in local communities can also find themselves shunned by their peers.
"They don't want him in the community," community leader Pierre Yakanza said, describing how some people here see an HIV-positive person. "They don't want to be close to him. 'Leave him over there. We don't want to associate with him or have him in the community meetings or give him a job.' He's rejected."
Local health workers spread information about safe sex, but even access to condoms remains a challenge.
Treatment available
More than 1,500 people now come to Zemio's hospital from nearby and as far away as Uganda, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of the Congo for the free HIV treatment offered by Doctors without Borders.
Hospital officials said previously one person would die every month or so from the disease, but they haven't registered a death since 2014.
In 2012, Agnes Davouragouni said she used to be sick all the time.
"When I did the test and found out I was positive, my husband said he doesn't have HIV, so he left me the same day," said the 35-year-old woman, who now lives alone with her three children, selling wood and charcoal to get by.
Once a year, Davouragouni walks 45 kilometers to Zemio over the course of two days in order to get a checkup as part of her treatment. She walks mostly at night and sleeps under a tree along the way.
"The roads are very insecure. I don't have a motorcycle or the money to pay to get here," she said. "There's a lot of fear to travel on these roads."
Bandits and rebel groups, including the remnants of the Lord's Resistance Army, all move around the area. The security void will worsen with the departure of Ugandan and American forces in the next few months.
Group efforts
Recognizing the challenges of getting medication, Doctors Without Borders developed a new community approach in which HIV-positive patients work in groups to bring back antiretroviral drugs in bulk every six months, reducing travel time, costs and exposure to risk.
Farmer Moïse Ouele picks up the antiretroviral drugs for his group of about 30 people and drives them two hours down the road to his village Kitesa, about 50 kilometers away.
"It was really tiring for me to come each month to the hospital," Ouele said. "But now, this program helps a lot with this problem, despite the insecurity of the LRA that is growing."
Doctors Without Borders is transitioning out of the area at the end of the year and is handing over the administration of the program to the Ministry of Health.
