Sharing a Coke with Brett and Helping the Holy Souls
By Terri Thomas
We have experienced this many times since Brett passed away on October 15, 2015. I ask him to pray for many things but never without praying for him first. This is what Pope Francis refers to as a "communion of intercessory prayer - an exchange of spiritual goods" (see below Amoris Laetitia, 257).

Is repentance a part of your faith?
By Zaid Kanafani
Repentance. I don’t think there’s been one word that has created more confusion in my relationship with Jesus Christ. At least, that’s how it used to be. Repentance.
