“I know exactly where I was. I was sitting in the quire of Canterbury Cathedral. It was 28 March 1976.

I know that it was the Fourth Sunday in Lent, because the gospel that day was this story of the boy with the five barley-loaves and the two, small fish. I remember to this day the experience of hearing, as if for the first time, the story of the young lad who shared his lunch. Now, every time I hear this passage, I find myself sitting in Canterbury’s quire.” Br. James Koester digs into a scriptural story with a deep personal resonance, as he ponders the miracle of one boy's offering, and what God can do with it to bless the feeding of the world.
