Sunday Scripture reflection from Scott Hahn:

“If we call on the Lord, he will increase our faith, will stir to a flame the Holy Spirit who has dwelt within us since baptism.”

St. Francis was inspired by the Gospel story where Christ tells his disciples to go out without shoes, clothing, or money to preach his word. This way of living became the basis for the Franciscan order, which drew thousands of followers during his life.

St. Francis, pray for us!

The document is expected to focus on poverty and the poor. Footage of the pope signing the text showed the Table of Contents with chapters dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi, “The cry of the poor,” and “Ideological prejudices.”

The document is expected to focus on poverty and the poor. "We pray to be a church that does not serve money or itself, but the kingdom of God and his justice."

“I still live inside his blessing, consciously and unconsciously, striving to measure up, to honor what he gave me.”

“I still live inside his blessing, consciously and unconsciously, striving to measure up, to honor what he gave me.”

My father died when I was 23, a seminarian, green, still learning about life. It’s hard to lose your father at any age, and my grief was compounded by the fact that I had just begun to appreciate what he had given me. Only later did I realize that I no longer needed him, though

The prayer to the has been recited since at least the early 12th century: “Angel of God, my Guardian dear, to whom his love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.”

We get upset over a Mass not being celebrated in the exact manner we wish it was. The faithful Catholics in England 500 years ago lost the ability to even attend Mass unless done so in secret.

The faithful Catholics in England 500 years ago lost the ability to even attend Mass, and access to their beloved churches like the cathedral in Canterbury.

“I know now that true charity consists in bearing all our neighbors’ defects — not being surprised at their weakness, but edified at their smallest virtues.”

St. Thérèse of Lisieux, pray for us!

Who will remind us that God gave us our technological abilities so that we could fulfill his divine plan, not make up our own plans as we go along?

As a society, we desperately need an examination of the proper use of technology.

Scott Hahn on the importance of repeating yourself in prayer: “When we persevere in praying the rosary, we become like little children, children of Mary, children of our heavenly Father.”

The rosary works, on a human level, because it engages the whole person.

We were not poor in 1960s LA, and neither were most of the kids I knew. They were just big families with parents who sacrificed things that do not really matter for things that did.

We were like so many other families in 1960s Los Angeles – big families with parents who sacrificed things that do not really matter for things that did.
