The Great Romance
The Great Romance
By Nancy Marie Murray
In the beginning, God spoke one Word into the eternal silence and thus all creation came into being. In all the vastness of creation, only man was created in God’s image. The first man, Adam, given authority to name the animals and finding none among them like himself, became deeply aware of his solitude.

A Coherency of Merit and Salvation
By Kevin Noles

On Grace
On Grace
By Crysaly Aviles
“Our justification comes from the grace of God. Grace is favor, the free and underserved help that God gives us to respond to his call to become children of God, adoptive sons, partakers of the divine nature and eternal life,” (Catechism of the Catholic Church 1996).I think of grace as a place. It’s that place where in spite of me I am accepted exactly as I am.

The Slippery Slope We Should Fear Above All Others
By Mishka Góra
The problem with Confession is that we have become so inured to sin that we don’t always recognise our need to confess. The world is so full of glaring and frightful sins that our own pale in comparison and are easily overlooked.

Happy Birthday to Us - Pentecost Sunday
Happy Birthday to Us - Pentecost Sunday
By Jeffrey Battiston
On Sunday May 24, we will celebrate Pentecost Sunday. The day we remember the Holy Spirit coming down into the world and into our hearts. The feast that we celebrate is considered by many to be the birthday of the Church, and for good reason. An amazing miracle took place that day; the miracle of the establishment of the Church itself.

Living a Grateful Life
Living a Grateful Life
By Mallory Hoffman
Hey, you! Yes, I mean you. Have you looked around today? The trees look beautiful. They open their branches like someone giving you a hug. Look how deep the green is on their leaves. Look at the flowers underneath the trees. The trees have so much shade, and you can rest under them. It's cooler here than anywhere else.

Game of Faith
Game of Faith

Reflections On The Passion of Our Lord
Reflections On The Passion of Our Lord
By Frank J. Maduri
After praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet today at 3 o’clock, I began my normal prayer routine of meditating on the Stations of the Cross except something was different today. I think it could have been because I also did the prayers for First Friday and I was reflecting on those words when I entered into the regular practice of meditating on the path which Our Blessed Lord walked for our salvation.

Risk Your Heart... Just A Little.

The United States Supreme Court has now heard the arguments for and against "gay- marriage". Now we wait to see what the almighty Justices have decided.
