Friends, I’m excited to share that I’ll be accompanying a group of young adults on a 2-week pilgrimage through Europe as part of the 2025 Jubilee of Youth in Rome! 🇻🇦

I’d love for you to follow along! I’ll be posting reflections, photos, and moments of grace throughout the journey.

📍From sacred sites to special celebrations with the Universal Church, come with us virtually as we encounter Christ in new and beautiful ways.

🙏 Please keep our group in your prayers — and feel free to drop prayer intentions in the comments. We’d be honored to carry them with us.

👉 Follow along here for updates!

“In difficult moments I will fix my gaze upon the silent heart of Jesus, stretched upon the cross, and from the exploding flames of His merciful Heart, will flow down upon me power and strength to keep fighting.”
— Saint Faustina

When life becomes too heavy to bear, and when our strength seems to fail, we are invited to look not inward—but upward. On the Cross, Jesus speaks without words. His Sacred Heart, pierced and poured out, is the wellspring of grace and mercy for every weary soul. In His silence, there is power. In His suffering, there is hope.

Let us not turn away from His gaze in our trials. Let us fix our hearts upon His, and allow the fire of His love to consume our weakness and fill us with divine strength. Just as Saint Faustina did, may we choose to fight our battles not alone, but in the refuge of His Sacred Heart.

🙏 Prayer:

O Merciful Jesus,
In times of pain and sorrow, I turn my eyes to You, crucified for love of me. Let the flames of Your Sacred Heart descend into my soul. Strengthen me in weakness, comfort me in distress, and give me courage to persevere. Teach me to surrender, not in defeat, but in faith. May Your silent love speak louder than the noise of my fears. Jesus, I trust in You.
Amen.

Gospel of the Day (Matthew 16,13-19)

Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi and he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”
They replied, "Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
Simon Peter said in reply, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God."
Jesus said to him in reply, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father.
And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.
I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."

Prayer to the Immaculate Heart of Mary,

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, refuge of sinners,
I beg of you by the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus,
and by graces God has granted to you since your Immaculate Conception,
the grace of never going astray again.
Mother, keep me, a sinner, constantly bathed in the light of your Immaculate Heart.

AMEN
