Fasting means knowing how to renounce vanities that pass away and superfluous things, to get to what is essential. It means seeking the beauty of a simpler life. #Lent #GeneralAudience

In the #GospelOfTheDay (Mt 5:13-16), Jesus calls His disciples to be salt and light in the world. The person who lives and spreads the grace of Christ is salt. The person who lets the Gospel shine with good deeds is light.

Worship involves making an exodus from the greatest form of bondage: slavery to oneself. Worship means putting the Lord at the centre, not ourselves.

Worship means concentrating on what is essential: ridding ourselves of useless things and addictions that anesthetize the heart and confound the mind.

Jesus is the smile of God. He came to reveal to us the love and goodness of our heavenly Father. We need God's smile to strip us of our false certainties, and to bring us back to enjoying simplicity and gratuitousness.

Every conversion comes from a previous experience of mercy, from God’s tenderness that captures the heart.

It's the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception! Join us in prayer as we celebrate the singular grace that Mary received at her creation!
Note this is NOT a Holy Day of Obligation since it falls on a Monday, rather a Holy Day of Opportunity.

The true worship of God is always expressed in love of one’s neighbour.

The closeness to the Lord invites our heart to approach our brothers and sisters with love, to show compassion towards everyone.

Faith calls for a journey, a “going out”. Purification takes places on the journey of life, a journey that is often uphill, because it leads upwards.

This is our mission: to show by our lives, and perhaps even by our words, that God loves everyone and never tires of anyone. #ExtraordinaryMissionaryMonth #MissionaryOctober

In the #GospelOfToday, Jesus shows us that the measure of faith is service. "We are useless servants" is an expression of humility and availability that does so much good for the Church. #Angelus

Peace entails a conversion of heart and soul. It is a challenge that demands to be taken up ever anew. #PeaceDay

Today the Church asks us to contemplate the glorious Cross of Our Lord. Though He was God, Christ humbled Himself by becoming a servant. This is the glory of the Cross of Jesus!
