We must forgive
August 22
“We must forgive the society from which we come; we must forgive the ways it has hurt us. We must have forgiveness for all the pain that we have unknowingly experienced, even in the womb before our birth. We must forgive those who may not have understood us, or have seemingly neglected us, or perhaps even rejected us.”
-Catherine Doherty

Changing within

The salvation that Christ brings
August 17
“The distance between spirituality and social action is not as great as many believe. Scripture does not reveal a spiritual man or a secular man. It speaks only of a whole man – integrated by the salvation that Christ brings.”
-Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen
