Speak Out! Be Not Afraid!

The Gift of Life

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) As believers, how can we fail to see that abortion, euthanasia and assisted suicide are a terrible rejection of God's gift of life and love? And as believers, how can we fail to feel the duty to surround the sick and those in distress with the warmth of our affection and the support that will help them always to embrace life?                  St. John Paul II

Why Dear Lord, Why?

[The Eucharist must be the source and center of every human life and most especially in the lives of our priests and religious. Why, dear Lord, do so many of us remain obstinately opposed to this Truth? Why don't more of us treasure this great Gift?  Why have so many turned deaf ears to the prophets whom You have sent to us? Why are so few willing to quench Your thirst to be loved? Why, dear Lord, why?] "The moral rot of the priesthood starts with a want of lively faith in the Divine Presence, and the sanctity of the priesthood starts there too." Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
