The Year of Saint Francis || "O Divine Master, grant that I may not seek to be consoled, as to console. To be understood, as to understand. To be loved, as to love. For it is in giving that we receive. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in dying that we are born to eternal life."

The Year of Saint Francis || "We must all be on our guard against pride and empty boasting and beware of worldly or natural wisdom. A worldly spirit loves to talk a lot but do nothing, striving for the exterior signs of holiness that people can see, with no desire for true piety and interior holiness of spirit."

Happy Feast of St. Fiacre, patron saint of gardeners!

The feast day of St. Fiacre, a monk from Ireland who moved to France and used herbs from his garden to cure and heal people.

Let's lift up all who tend the earth with care, feeding both body and soul through their labor.
