Let not this Lent go by...

  "I have decided not to let this Lent go by 

like rain on stones, leaving no trace.  

I will let it soak into me, changing me.

I will be converted, I will turn again to the Lord 
and love Him as He wants to be loved." 

St Josemaria Escriva

“A man who fails to love the Mass

fails to love Christ.

We must make an effort

 to 'live' the Mass

with calm and serenity, 
with devotion and affection."

St Josemaria Escriva

Embrace of God...

"With the Eucharist the intimacy becomes total; 
the embrace between God and man 

reaches its apex." - St John Paul II

 "Every heart seeks a happiness outside it, 

and since perfect love is God, then 

the heart of man and the heart of Christ 

must, in some way, fuse... 

This aspiration of the soul for its ecstasy

is fulfilled in the Sacrament of the Eucharist. 

 Ven Fulton J Sheen
