May All Our Priests Be Holy

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons)
God is holy; that holiness comes to earth in Christ.  He bestows it on his priests with their cooperation; they, in the measure in which they accept, contribute to making the people holy.  The people do not give the priest the special powers to sanctify which he possesses.  It is our Lord who gave these powers, and He gave them to enable the priest to make the people holy.

Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

Your Destiny...Your Duty

(Image Source - Wikimedia Commons ) This is the Will of God – your sanctification.  To be a child of Mary means to be a saint.  That is your destiny.  That is your duty.  That is the one work of your life and your life's only work…there is only one sorrow: not to be a saint.  God has willed that you be a saint; has made it the whole purpose of your life, and the only meaning of all your living.  Rev. M. Raymond, O.C.S.O.
