« Peter is thus entrusted with the task of “loving more” and giving his life for the flock. The ministry of Peter is distinguished precisely by this self-sacrificing love, because the Church of Rome presides in charity and its true authority is the charity of Christ. » Leo XIV
@BishStrickland Thank you for writing so clearly. May Our Lady intercede for each person with an open heart there. May they love God above all things; love Him before all things. Lord, give us courage, wisdom, fortitude, all that we need to live as your disciples today. Mother Mary, protect us.
@ArchCordileone Communion rails are so efficient. I didn’t grow up with them but I’ve seen how very good these are for so many reasons. A kneeler is helpful and better than nothing. God bless and strengthen you. We are very blessed in you and others. Please know many, many people pray for you.
@ArchCordileone We kneel for all kinds of things in ordinary life. The least we could do is to kneel for a few seconds to receive Our Lord who is Love and who only wants us to say yes to His Love. The argumentative tone around this topic has telling signs the nature of our battle…Mercy, Jesus.
My child, life on earth is a struggle indeed; a great struggle for my kingdom.
But fear not, for you are not alone.
I am always supporting you, so lean on Me as you struggle, fearing nothing. Take the vessel of trust and draw from the fountain of life.
-Jesus to St Faustina
