After nearly 29 years of leading us on a wonderful spiritual journey our dear Spiritual Director has retired as of 12 31 25. During those 29 years we had the opportunity of creating a hybrid community - online and in-person in Palo Alto. We have been beyond excited that after 5 years on Zoom what emerged was a vibrant international community with companions from countries around the world all seeking spiritual truths that transcend the boundaries often found in traditional religious spaces. Our mission at COJ has always been to be a unique community which supports each of us in finding and following our own spiritual path. As we celebrate 29 years as an independent spiritual community we recognize that our longevity was a testament to Fr. Sens inspired spiritual direction and the deep commitment to community by all of our companions. We were inspired by our new companions jumping in to choose readings offer thought-provoking questions on 3rd Sundays participate in the WWG book group help plan community liturgies and attend retreats. Through our weekly after Mass meet and greet times and individuals connecting through our COJ directory we learned about each other. We offered a once a month Newcomers Meeting for those who were interested in learning more about COJ. In addition to our weekly Zoom Masses with Fr. Sen we continued to celebrate our 4th Sunday Community Liturgies in-person followed by community potluck lunches and coffee and cake gatherings. We have facilitated 2 community retreats in 2025: Bishops Ranch in Healdsburg with Fr. Sen last March also available via Zoom and a September Retreat at Villa Maria del Mar. We have continued to partner locally with Catholic Worker House donating food clothing and funds toward education and housing each month. It was a wonderful journey and continues in our hearts.
