Imprint of God

Whatever touches God bears His image, just as Veronica's cloth visibly bore Christ's face. Imagine then how He imprints Himself on us through the Eucharist!

Forgiveness restores

"Forgiveness restores what I have lost and could never otherwise regain."

-Fr Richard Veras

Through forgiving, we restore to others what they have lost; and it is only through forgiving ourselves that we can truly regain what we have lost through falling and accept Christ's redemption.

Dangers of the numbers game

Jesus Himself, that is, God Himself, in three years of public ministry formed twelve disciples. Do not fall into the trap of the numbers game. If God formed twelve (and one betrayed Him!), do not expect more for yourself! Where is your humility?

Live what you believe...

...or you will end up believing what you live.

Communion of Saints

You are sad that cannot get to know that beautiful soul; you are sad that you do not get to spend more time with another. Rejoice! For it is in the communion of saints that we are all re-united with our loved ones, who we will never have the time nor opportunity to love and know fully on earth! In eternity we will be joined in full love and knowledge.

Is it any wonder then, the great rejoicing in heaven over one lost sheep returning to the fold? One more life to be fully loved and known! If that soul were to fall to hell, then it is cut off from the others for eternity. It is no wonder that all the saints are interceding for us; how they long for us to join them in heaven!
