“The apostolate of women in the modern world is not a moral option. It is a mandate… Today’s Church needs miracles of conversion, repentance, and the miracles will take place, provided women do their part, through Mary, and in Jesus and with a woman’s selfless love.”

                                                                 Father John A. Hardon, S.J.

For Reflection:             

These are strong words. What response do they solicit in you? Name some of the ways in which you think the Church needs miracles of conversion? Note that Father Hardon says the miracles will take place, but it depends on women. Why do you think this is so?  Consider your answer in light of the GraceLines for November 23 and 24. In the next three GraceLines, Father Hardon  will show how this can be accomplished.
