“…doing the impossible.”


Prayer of Unity

Dear Lord,
Unite the Churches of Christ that have been splintered over the centuries for each year that passes the wedges grow deeper and deeper. As our faith grows, we must see not what separates us, but what joins us. Only then can we once again become true patrons of the faith. Through your word and divine mercy, we shall become united again. Amen.

“…change…”

“The only way you can change Canon Law is to break it.” (Archbishop Peter Paul Brennan, OCR, OA, DD)

“…Courage…”


“…Silence.”


“…simple joys are holy.”


“…you learn to love by loving.”


“…find it with another.”


“…feed just one.”


Of Peacemakers

“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” (Matthew 5:9)They are truly peacemakers who amidst all they suffer in this world maintain peace in soul and body for the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
