"If we do not pray, we exclude God from the reality of our lives." —Cardinal Thuận

What does it take to maintain hope in impossible circumstances? What spiritual gifts can arise from that choice?

A new biography of Cardinal Nguyễn Văn Thuận’s life provides a striking answer to these questions. Written by Thuan's sister Élisabeth Nguyễn and Fr. Stefaan Lecleir, the biography tells the story of Thuận's extraordinary witness to the power of Christian hope. Having suffered 13 years of imprisonment—9 in solitary confinement—Thuận's story is a testament to how deliberately choosing true hope in the face of hatred, evil, and darkness can transform not only the soul of the hopeful, but the lives of all they touch.

Today's blog features a new review of this biography, Cardinal Nguyễn Văn Thuận: Man of Joy and Hope. We consider this book essential reading: click the link below to find out why.🕊

Today and every day, we are so grateful to those who made endless sacrifices for our country. Our veterans embody bravery, strength, and hope. We celebrate the feast of St. Martin of Tours today, whose intercession we ask for in the lives of all veterans and their loved ones as we pray for peace, protection, and healing. ❤️‍🩹

Thank you to every veteran! 🙏

Lord God, Almighty Father,
creator of mankind and author of peace,
as we are ever mindful of the cost paid for the liberty we possess,
we ask you to bless the members of our armed forces.
Give them courage, hope and strength.
May they ever experience your firm support, gentle love and compassionate healing.
Be their power and protector, leading them from darkness to light.
To you be all glory, honor and praise, now and forever.

Amen.

(Prayer via USCCB)

13 years of imprisonment, including 9 in solitary confinement, and a decision to love rather than grow bitter—this is the legacy of Venerable Cardinal Francis Xavier Nguyễn Văn Thuận, who is currently on the road to sainthood. Elisabeth Nguyễn is his youngest and last living sibling. Retired educator and author, Elisabeth has devoted her life to preserving her brother’s legacy of faith, hope, and forgiveness.

Elisabeth's latest achievement is the publication of her brother's biography, Cardinal Nguyen Van Thuan: Man of Joy and Hope, which captures his unwavering faith. In this latest episode of A Resounding Yes!, Elisabeth shares personal family memories, her own spiritual journey, and how her brother’s quiet strength continues to inspire the world.❤️‍🔥

The conversation underscores the power of saying “yes” to God in every circumstance. Find us on Spotify and Apple Podcast at the link in our bio. Stay tuned for a review of Elisabeth's new book later this week!

Today we honor a Doctor of the Church, the very first Pope to be given the title "the Great," and a saint who holds tremendous influence over our understanding of Christ's nature: St. Leo the Great.❤️‍🔥

A great peacemaker and courageous diplomat, we ask for St. Leo's intercession for our Holy Father and all confessors, public administrators, pastoral leaders, and all those who defend our faith. St. Leo, pray for us! 🤍

The awe-inspiring beauty, the still, cool air, the sense of being a little closer to the Heavens…and a bit farther from cell service.🌄

Mountains offer a special peace to many of us, including the newly canonized St. Pier Giorgio Frassati. In his new book, The Frassati Field Guide, Bobby Angel gives readers a practical, approachable, and inspired guide to walking in the heroic footsteps of that new saint ourselves.

Lifelike, exacting, haunting—this is a standout among crucifixes.

The Turin Crucifix is the creation of Mark Fisher, retired engineer and founder of Ernest Works, Inc. He collaborated with artists worldwide to produce the most accurate crucifix based on details from the Shroud of Turin, other Relics of Christ’s Passion, recent archeological discoveries, and revelations to saints and mystics.

This beautiful piece is endorsed by Cardinal Raymond Burke, who calls it a “striking representation of Our Lord’s Passion and Death.”

"I ask educational communities: disarm words, raise your eyes, and safeguard the heart." - Pope Leo XIV

It's a momentous week for educators—Pope Leo ended the Jubilee of World Education today declaring St. John Henry Newman a Doctor of the Church. This comes on the heels of declaring Newman co-patron of the mission of Catholic education just a few days prior in his new Apostolic letter, "Drawing New Maps of Hope."

On today's blog, we report on the letter, the insight provided by Ave Maria University's Provost Dr. Roger Nutt, and the gratitude we feel to serve educational institutions and communities here at Paloma & Fig. Link in comments to read! 👇

✝️ From October 31-November 2, we celebrate All Hallow's Eve, All Saints' Day, and, finally, All Souls' Day. Rietta's writing reminds us of the unique opportunity that this trifecta offers us for reflection. On our mind today: Christ's love, the souls of our loved ones, and our own ultimate goal—becoming saints ourselves.

On the feast of our agency’s patron, St. John Paul II, our founder and creative director, Christina Sabo, personally delivered the funds raised for The Kolbe Center from our early October film screening of Triumph of the Heart.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who contributed. This event was made possible by your unwavering faith, generosity, and steadfast support. As we close this feast day seeking the intercession of our patron, we can’t help but imagine not one, but two saints rejoicing hand-in-hand in heaven for the love that covered this initiative.

🌟 Because of YOU, we raised $2,155.00 to help mothers, babies, and future families in middle Georgia.🌟 Thank YOU for helping to support a culture of life!

“Do not forget that holiness consists not in extraordinary actions, but in performing your duties towards God, yourself, and others well.” - St. Maximilian Kolbe

Today, we joyfully celebrate the feast of our patron St. John Paul II, a saint whose life continues to inspire millions with his courage, faith, and radiant joy. Known for his deep devotion to Christ, his love of young people, the arts, and his adventurous spirit, John Paul II showed us that holiness can be lived fully—in prayer, in community, and even in the great outdoors.

As St. John Paul II reminded us, life with Christ is “a wonderful adventure.” May his feast day inspire us to live our faith boldly, with joy, and with a renewed love for the beauty of God’s creation.

Our team prayed the Luminous Mysteries for all of your intentions this morning, asking for St. John Paul II’s intercession.

St. John Paul II, pray for us!
