“…our first catechists are our parents: those who first spoke to us and taught us to speak.  Just as we learned our mother tongue, so too the proclamation of the faith cannot be delegated to someone else; it happens where we live, above of all in our homes, around the family table.  When there is a voice, a gesture, a face that leads to Christ, the family experiences the beauty of the Gospel.” -Pope Leo

For the sake of His sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

"Unfortunately, we live in an age that doesn't believe that some things are true and some things are always wrong. It doesn't believe in objective realities, and it certainly doesn't believe in the existence of evil."
Our age is wrong.

In my deepest wound
I saw your glory,
and it dazzled me.

Let's speak the name of Jesus over every need today. There is no other greater power or more assuring calm.

[Friend of Liguori 🇻🇦 @FriendOfLiguori]

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth. O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations, Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

[Sr. Miriam James @onegroovynun]

The Holy Spirit will always
lead us to the truth.

Sometimes changing the world means getting quiet enough for God to change me.

Lord, help me choose to make time with You a priority. Each and every day. I want Your Word and Your love to work wonders in my soul.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

In the #GospelOfTheDay (Jn 2:1-11), we notice two things: lack and superabundance. In the banquet of life, we sometimes realize that the wine is running out. This happens when the destructive forces of evil take away the joy of life.

[Sr. Miriam James @onegroovynun]

Jesus,
Protect us in these days to come.
Protect our nation and heal it.
Protect our families and heal them.
Protect our hearts and heal us.
Bring us closer to you.
Amen.

[Jess @32Jess32]

@onegroovynun Amen! 🙏🏼

No one heals himself
by wounding another.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

In the #GospelOfTheDay (Lk 21:25-28,34-36), Jesus invites us to lift our gaze toward Heaven to better understand the things of the earth.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Jesus said clearly: “Just as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me” (Mt 25:40). Jesus asks you to discover Him in the members of society who are poor, despised, and abandoned. What a beautiful encounter that can be! #DilexitNos

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Brothers and sisters, war is an illusion. It is a defeat, and it will never bring peace or security. War is a defeat for everyone, especially those who believe themselves to be invincible. Stop, please!

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Though the world frequently tries to convince us that we are valued only for what we can produce, the #Gospel reminds us of the truth of life: we are loved by God.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us not be afraid to make ourselves small before God and each other. May we give our lives, spend our time, and make sacrifices to help our brothers and sisters live better and be happy! #ApostolicJourney

[Sr. Miriam James @onegroovynun]

God did not give us a spirit of cowardice,
but rather a spirit of power
and of love
and of self-control.
