“There is a terrible hunger for love. We all experience that in our lives – the pain, the loneliness. We must have the courage to recognize it. The poor you may have right in your own family.  Find them.  Love them.” St. Mother Teresa

    Question for the parents, do your kids look forward to seeing you after a long day at school and sports practice?  Personally, I still remember anxiously waiting for my dad to walk in the front door from work…he always had a warm smile and he quietly communicated his sincere love for me.

God bless,

“To be faithful in little things is a great thing.”  St. Teresa of Calcutta

    Every single morning, without fail, Fr. Steven Reilly, LC cooks a pot of “Quaker” oatmeal and boils a bunch of eggs for breakfast.   The nine padres who live with Fr. Steven are extremely grateful for this daily dose of dogged dedication!

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC

“We learn humility through accepting humiliations cheerfully.” – St. Mother Teresa

    Humiliations are the short-cut to the all important virtue of humility.  Try to see the spiritual value in these tough moments, and thank Jesus for this huge opportunity to grow!

God bless,

“When charity requires it we must freely and mildly communicate to our neighbor not only what is his instruction, but also what is profitable for his consolation.”~St. Francis de Sales.

“Hardship often prepares an ordinary person for an extraordinary destiny.”

― C.S. Lewis

     My experience has been that those who have suffered more, and embraced this as God’s plan with a deep faith, tend to have a little more “spark”, a little more character and a little more joy in their hearts.  “Those who sow in tears will reap with hearts rejoicing!” (Psalm 126:5)

God bless,
