As we begin the month of August, we will be celebrating two very important and beautiful feasts.

Priest ordination and beautiful feast days mark the beginning of summer.

During this month many wonderful celebrations will occur.

Jesus Christ has changed the course and the trajectory of all history by His life, death and Resurrection.

May this month be a time of great grace and consolation for us.

The season of Lent is the Lord’s gift to you to start again in the living and deepening of your faith.

Be resolved to read the life of a saint every day and ask yourself this question: what in this saint’s life is most like my life?

Prepare of our hearts, minds, bodies and souls to finally see Jesus and make a gift of our lives to Him.

What unites all of us in this great communion is our faith and all the holy things, especially the Holy Eucharist and the other sacraments, which unite us to God in His Church and thus, to one another.

Some of the saints from the earliest days of the Church remind us that we have a direct link to Jesus through them and their lives.

Let us resolve that this month of September will be the time for us to take special care of our faith.

Our Blessed Mother shows us how to know, love and serve the Lord better.

Important feasts and solemnities in June should have a direct and positive influence on our daily lives of faith.

Enjoy this beautiful month and continue to live in the light of the Risen Lord.

May this coming Easter Sunday and the entire Easter season be a cause for our abiding joy, and may we be ever more faithful to Him.

Allow Lent to strengthen your faith, hope and charity in anticipation of the greatest moment in human history, the Resurrection of the Lord.

You will still find the same reliable information and the same excellent articles on matters of faith, liturgy and pastoral life.

2023 will be filled with abundant opportunities to grow and extend our faith for ourselves, our families and friends and for our Church.

All of this helps but unless we commit ourselves to being people of Advent, Christmas becomes just another holiday
