“To be sure, it was not Easter Sunday but Holy Saturday, but, the more I reflect on it, the more this seems to be fitting for the nature of our human life: we are still awaiting Easter; we are not yet standing in the full light but walking toward it full of trust.” 
― Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI

 “Mount Calvary is the academy of love.” -St. Francis de Sales

The washing of the feet and the sacrament of the Eucharist: two expressions of one and the same mystery of love entrusted to the disciples, so that, Jesus says, “as I have done… so also must you do” (Jn 13: 15).  – St. John Paul II

“Conviction without experience makes for harshness.” Flannery O’Connor
These two recent saints suffered so much on so many levels, giving them this healthy combination of conviction and compassion!

I have been invited to be a regular host of “Vigilant Heart”, a @radio_maria_usa show hosted by Annie Karto. I feel honored and blessed by this invitation to be a small part of the world of radio evangelization.
We will tackle a variety of themes and have a strong line up of interviews with missionary disciples that will encourage the heart and challenge the mind of the listeners. Please tune in the third Monday of every month from 7pm-8pm EDT. I will also be on this coming Monday from 730-8 pm. https://radiomaria.us/listen-to-the-radio/
