Quote of the Week

“In prayer today, we might ask God to reveal to us the opportunities that are before us at this moment. Perhaps there is a window of opportunity in which we can express our love and gratitude to someone. Perhaps the soil is just right for planting some new seeds. Do not delay. Do not lose this opportunity. Take full advantage of this moment in your life’s history.”

-Br. David Vryhof

Poem of the Week

by: Joan Chittister

May your journey
through these questions
bring you to a new moment
of awareness.
 
May it be an enlightening one.
 
May you find,
like all the students of life before you,
the answers you yourself are seeking now.
 
May they awaken in you
that which is deeper than fact,
truer than fiction,
full of faith.
 
May you come to know
that in every human event
is a particle of the Divine
to which we turn
for meaning here,
to which we tend
for fullness of life hereafter
