"To give ourselves to God in prayer is to find a door in our heart unlocking and opening to the hearts of other people." - Father Donald Haggerty

No Need To Contemplate Hell?

I may think of hell as threefold: hell is torment of fire and other pains of sense in the company of demons and the damned; hell is the loss of God which is the greatest pain of hell; and hell is despair that will never end…Through pious meditation I must descend into hell while I live that I may not have to descend into it when I die.

Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S.
