Today the Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Teresa of Calcutta, a modern-day saint who was a powerful witness to seeing Christ in the poorest and most forgotten.

Mother Teresa was known to do small things with great love. She served the sick, the dying and the marginalized with extraordinary tenderness because she believed that in each person, she was serving Jesus Himself.

Her example challenges us to look more closely at the people God places in front of us each day and ask: How can I love Christ in this person?

St. Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us!

Today the Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Gregory the Great, Pope and Doctor of the Church.

As pope, Gregory cared for the poor, strengthened missionary efforts, helped reform the liturgy and left behind writings that would influence the Church for centuries. Yet despite all he accomplished and the authority entrusted to him, Gregory referred to himself simply as “servant of the servants of God.”

September is traditionally dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows, inviting us to contemplate the seven profound sorrows Mary endured throughout the life, passion and death of her Son.

As we reflect upon her sorrows, may Mary teach us to remain close to Jesus in our own suffering and to trust Him always.

Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!

St. Alphonsus Liguori reminds us that the greatest things we can ask of God are not the things of this world. May this beautiful prayer help reorder our hearts toward what matters most: loving God and belonging completely to Him.

Today the Church commemorates the Memorial of the Passion of St. John the Baptist, who gave his life rather than remain silent about the truth.

John called King Herod to repentance for his unlawful marriage. He knew that speaking the truth could cost him his freedom, and ultimately his life, but he refused to compromise what was right.

St. John the Baptist, pray for us!

For years, St. Monica prayed for her son, Augustine, who had wandered far from the faith. She never gave up hope, trusting that God was still at work in his heart. Her prayers were answered, and Augustine not only returned to Christ but became one of the greatest saints and Doctors of the Church.

If someone you love has drifted from the faith, don't lose heart. Keep praying. God hears every prayer, and His timing is always perfect.

St. Monica, patroness of mothers and of those praying for loved ones to return to the faith, pray for us.

Today's Responsorial Psalm tells us, "Blessed are those who fear the Lord."

Do you know what it means to fear the Lord?

In Scripture, the fear of the Lord doesn't mean being afraid of God. Rather, it means approaching Him with profound awe, reverence and love by recognizing His greatness and desiring above all to live according to His will.

Today the Church celebrates the Feast of St. Bartholomew the Apostle, one of the Twelve chosen by Christ to proclaim the Gospel to the ends of the earth.

Though little is recorded about his life in Scripture, tradition tells us that St. Bartholomew faithfully preached the Gospel in distant lands and ultimately gave his life as a martyr for Christ. Today, scholars say he was also known as Nathanael in Scripture.

St. Bartholomew, pray for us!

There is so much to unpack in the Gospel for this 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time. First, Jesus asks His disciples who people say He is. Then, He calls upon Peter as the Church's "rock" and first pope. Finally, Jesus says, "whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven," entrusting the apostles with His authority to lead and govern His Church.
