Folks, Once again I’d like to invite you to visit the Family to Family Foundation website. If you’ve been moved by the posts the boys have put up, and you’d like to express your love for your son, grandson, nephew or buddy, please consider joining us in our work of giving a future ...
Still Presente, by Tim Broyles
El Salvador Immersion Trip | Fri, 03 Jun 2011 06:12:18 -0700
In light of Flavio Bravo’s post about El Mozote, I thought it appropriate to post this video of Brophy students and faculty at our nation’s Capitol last November, along with dozens of other Jesuit High Schools and Colleges to speak out in solidarity with the people of Latin America. Afte...
Playing a Game, by Paul Fisko
El Salvador Immersion Trip | Fri, 03 Jun 2011 05:55:28 -0700
In El Salvador, everything seems to be a painful metaphor…a deep cutting irony that hurts the eyes and saddens the heart; Plentiful mangoes in season rotting on the ground in the campo while 25 yards away a subsistence farming family raises malnourished children… Bustling streets and sidewalks f...
Those indelible moments… by Katie Cardinali
El Salvador Immersion Trip | Fri, 03 Jun 2011 01:46:50 -0700
The boys have done a tremendous job capturing the events and emotions of our time in El Salvador. I wish you could see the way they crowd the computer when somebody posts a comment on the blog. There are 687 photographs on my camera (despite my efforts to erase the most lousy shots on a [...]
SALVADORAN ORACIÓN DE GENEROSIDAD, by Chris White

It is so easy for my faith to wane: the busy-ness of my life, my brain’s bombardment with distractions, my overly analytical, skeptical reaction to human directives from our Church, all create an inhospitable habitat for a closer connection to God—for a stronger faith. This pilgrimage to El Sa...
Finding God in Numbers, by Jobert Adan
El Salvador Immersion Trip | Thu, 02 Jun 2011 22:03:29 -0700
Dear Dad, Mom, Czarina, David Bernstein and Friends, Today marks the end of our trip but not the end of our experience. My brothers and I will be forever changed for what you have given us. Before we started this pilgrimage we had a retreat where we learned a few phrases and watched a video [...]
Geronimo, Political Division in a Broken World –
El Salvador Immersion Trip | Thu, 02 Jun 2011 19:08:14 -0700
After being in El Salvador for over a week now, me and my fellow students are constantly being exposed to the extreme poverty among the people of El Salvador. I am sure some of the other bloggers have discussed the poverty situation we have seen throughout out time in El Campo and even in some [...]
FMLN soldiers of the Civil War, by Jake Steffens
El Salvador Immersion Trip | Thu, 02 Jun 2011 17:21:35 -0700
The FMLN soldiers were the poor of the country of El Salvador who banded together to combat the repressive government troops. What comes to mind when you first hear the word “Guerilla?” For most of the students on this pilgrimage, we pictured a man with camouflage hiding in the jungle with a pai...
