Oh, how precious time is! Blessed are those who know how to make good use of it. Oh, if only all could understand how precious time is, undoubtedly everyone would do his best to spend it in a praiseworthy manner! ~Saint Padre Pio

    It’s all about balance…and you need to continually sharpen the saw!  Don’t feel bad about taking a nap, reading a good book, going for a jog, working in the garden, hitting a few golf balls…find something that helps your brain rest, and your family and friends will definitely benefit!

God bless,

I contributed to this recent Fox News article concerning the North Korean conflict.

TKC!
“Just going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.” GK Chesterton

A common complaint I hear from people on the streets are the “holier than thou Catholics who let you how devout they are and how often they attend Mass, but are often more prideful and hypocritical than your average secular person.” I am always happy to see full churches, rosary groups, long lines for Confession, etc…but we do all of this so we can be holier, kinder, and better reflect God’s love in our lives. In the words of St. John of the Cross, “At the end of our lives, we will be judged our love.”
God bless,

“Dear Sir: Regarding your article ‘What’s Wrong with the World,’ I am. Yours truly.” GK Chesterton

    If we are honest, we could all be a little less self-absorbed and a little more focused on serving the needs of those around us…and our world, our pond, will be a much happier place.

God bless,

Thy Kingdom Come!

Dear Friends, in Christ,

     “We have to do everything for love, not out of force.”  St. Francis de Sales

     I am always edified when my brother priests roll up their sleeves and tackle a pile of pots and pans with a smile, and even crack a few jokes to make it enjoyable.  There is a lot of enthusiasm and love for Christ driving this effort, and this sure makes community life more pleasant.

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
