Let us ask for the grace to approach everyone as a brother or sister, and never to regard anyone as an enemy.

Prayer 💕and pray for our enemies

[Bishop Robert Barron @BishopBarron]

Friends, today, in the Sermon on the Mount, the Lord commands us to love our enemies.

To the very people that contributed to his demise he says, “Shalom.” This is how we are loved; this is how we must love. Everything else is commentary.

St. Jude pray for us!

[Cardinal Dolan @CardinalDolan]

We're almost done with our tour of Our Spiritual Home. Sometimes we call the Church, our spiritual family, the Communion of Saints. One of our most popular saints is Saint Jude, one of the Apostles and the patron saint of impossible causes.

The #Covid19 pandemic has shown that our societies are not organized well enough to make room for the elderly, with proper respect for their dignity and frailty. When the elderly are not cared for, there is no future for the young. #WEAAD2020

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

In these days a number of doctors and priests have died. Many nurses were infected because they were serving the sick. I thank God for the example of heroism they give us in caring for the sick. Let us #PrayTogether for them and their families.

In my latest article, I reflect on the sojourn I made with my fellow bishops to the tomb of St. Paul, an encounter that moved me even more than I thought it would.

Amen

Elizabeth announces that “the infant in my womb leaped for joy.” This is the unborn John the Baptist doing his version of David’s dance before the Ark of the Covenant, his great act of worship of the King.

Friends, here is my homily for this upcoming Fourth Sunday in Advent. Please listen and share! https://t.co/TKyfvOKvqz

[Bishop Robert Barron @BishopBarron]

The Eucharist is what we do in the in-between times, between the death of the Lord and his coming in glory. It is the meal that even now anticipates the perfect meal of fellowship with God.

Today’s Gospel gives us the story of the miraculous draught of fishes. Without being invited, Jesus gets into Simon’s boat.

The most important decision you will ever make is this: Will you cooperate with Jesus once he decides to get into your boat?

Dear Mothers, be like Saint Monica and never give up. Pray unceasingly for your children.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us ask our Lord to help us understand that love is service, love means taking care of others.

[Mark Hart @LT_TheBiblegeek]

Hey parents of little ones - you have to check out this app. I got to give it an advance “test run” with my own 4 yr old and he loves it. It’s a great way to introduce younger souls to Scripture and the faith. Have fun!

Children must be able to play, study and grow in a peaceful environment. Woe to anyone who stifles their joyful impulse to hope!

Why is organic carbon considered life on Mars and a heartbeat not considered life on Earth?

God’s creation, and His creatures, are in Winter. We await an interior springtime; we yearn to put our spiritual winter behind us and let light, life, and goodness dominate us. https://t.co/AIm5WopQik

I feel deep pain for the many children torn from their families and forced to become child soldiers. This is a tragedy!
