Bringing our hearts to His...

  Though I sit in darkness, the 

LORD will be my light. - Micah 7:8b

“Our lives must be 

woven around the Eucharist...

fix your eyes on Him Who is the light;

bring your hearts close to His Divine Heart;

ask Him to grant you the grace of knowing Him,

the love of loving Him, the courage to serve Him.

Seek Him fervently.”- St Teresa of Calcutta

(Quote chosen to honor St Photina)

A Day in history...

TWENTY-FIVE years ago today I joyfully 

reconciled with the Catholic Church and 

in so doing was enabled to fully partake of the 

Holy Eucharist, the Sacrament of Charity and Unity. 
Let us join in the holy endeavors of praying and 

living lives that speak of the strength and love 

of our Eucharistic Lord - to come 

to know, love and serve Him more and more - 

and to draw many to the inexhaustible riches 

of His Sacred Heart.
