At this moment

August 5
"The hour is coming, in fact has come, when the vocation of women is being acknowledged in its fullness, the hour in which women acquire in the world an influence, an effect, and a power never hitherto achieved. That is why, at this moment when the human race is undergoing so deep a transformation, women imbued with a spirit of the Gospel can do so much to aid humanity in not falling."

"Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening."
-1 Samuel 3:9
Today’s Reflection:

The Eucharist is a mode of being

September 25

"...the Eucharist is a mode of being, which passes from Jesus into each Christian, through whose testimony it is meant to spread throughout society and culture. For this to happen, each member of the faithful must assimilate, through personal and communal meditation, the values which the Eucharist expresses, the attitudes it inspires, the resolutions to which it gives rise."

-St. John Paul II

 

Today’s Reflection:

What does the Eucharist being a "mode of being" mean to you?
