A Salvatorian Priest
Brother Silas is a professed member of the Society of the Divine Savior (the Salvatorians). As a Salvatorian, Father Silas’ ministry is shaped by the spiritual vision of Blessed Francis Mary of the Cross Jordan that all may come to know the loving kindness of the Divine Savior.
Committed to Forming Disciples
In his work as a catechist, retreat leader and author, Father Silas focuses on the dynamics of Christian discipleship as he brings together reflections on the liturgy, Sacred Scripture, Mary and the communion of Saints, and prayer.
“It is not a surprise that theology and spirituality are ever unfolding, and to be able to dive deeper into them, one must continue searching. Father Silas is the kind of teacher whose mind can’t stop diving deeper into the Church’s treasures… As a presenter and retreat leader, he will always find a way to tell us, ‘Follow Him!’”
— Father Emanuel (“Manu”) Franco-Gomez, O.Carm., Director of Youth Ministry (Diocese of Tucson)

Praying with the Church
The 27th Week in Ordinary Time
Almighty ever-living God,
who in the abundance of your kindness
surpass the merits and the desires of those who entreat you,
pour out your mercy upon us
to pardon what conscience dreads
and to give what prayer does not dare to ask.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever. Amen.
