"The deepest poverty is the inability of joy. The inability of joy presupposes and produces the inability to love, produces jealousy, avariceโall defects that devastate the life of individuals and of the world." // Pope Benedict XVI
"The evangelical witness which the world finds most appealing is that of concern for people, and of charity toward the poor, the weak and those who suffer." // St. John Paul II
Looking for a little inspiration as we begin a new week? We're loving these motivational signs Mission Center Director Fr. Tom Eckert, C.S.C., spotted around our mission sites during his recent trip to Uganda!

Happy #CatholicSchoolsWeek!
To all of our Holy Cross educators, we are blessed by your vocational call to educate the head and the heart, a vocational call shared by thousands of educators at Holy Cross Missions in 16 countries around the globe.
Following in the spirit of Bl. Basil Moreau, may we continue to burn with love for Christ and His Church--today and always--seeking to place the good of others before our own.
"Seeing with the eyes of Christ, [we] can give to others much more than their outward necessities; [we] can give them the look of love which they crave." // Pope Benedict XVI
