Ordinary Jo(seph)

Thoughts from an ordinary guy trying to follow the example of a Joe who followed God well enough to be entrusted with the care of the Son and His mother.

@JustinTrudeau Why is federally subsidized childcare not income tested? I want to help families who need it, not high income earners.

@frdarryl Path to the grill is always the first thing to be cleared of snow. Never too cold or snowy for BBQ.

#Lent is a reminder to stop, to return to the essential, to fast from all that is superfluous and distracting. It is a wake-up call for the spirit.

May Mary, Mother of God, protect and accompany us during this new year and bring the peace of her Son into our hearts and the world.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Do not follow Jesus only when you feel like it, rather, seek Him every day. Find in Him the God who loves you always, the meaning of your life and the strength to give of yourself.

@BustedHalo St. Joseph because he has our back in so many ways: patron of the universal church, fathers, Canada, departing souls, protector of families...

Our world needs a revolution of love! Let that revolution begin with you and your families!

Every occasion is a good one to spread Christ's message!

When we are firmly united to the God who loves and sustains us, we are able to withstand all life’s difficulties and challenges.

We are called to assist the elderly, the sick and the unborn: life must always be protected and loved, from conception to its natural conclusion.

Let us try to express the joy of God’s Kingdom in every way possible!

@frdarryl One of our younger kids used to call the priest Jesus because we would tell her “There’s Jesus” during the elevation. #CatholicKids

[Fr. Darryl Millette @frdarryl]

Kids at Mass are the best. One little guy was making noise through much of the Eucharistic Prayer, and then as I elevated the Host he let out a loud, “Hi Jesus!”

The. Best.

Invite the Holy Spirit to be part of your activities. Call upon Him before you even start: “Come, Holy Spirit!”.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Love is always at the service of others. Because love is seen in actions, not words.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Never tire of encountering Jesus in prayer, in listening to the Word of God, and in receiving the Eucharist.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The Holy Spirit gives us the strength we need to achieve holiness in the midst of our everyday lives.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

The mystery of the Blessed Trinity invites us to live in communion with one another, in love and in sharing: certain that wherever there is love, there is God.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Love of God and love of neighbour should be the two cornerstones of our lives.
