Let's be honest, we might look at priests like Fr. John and think, "Must be easy to be holy when you live right next to the house of the Lord!" But through baptism, we are all "houses of the Lord" and, thus, able to gaze upon his beauty. No matter the physical location, we can always close our eyes and, through prayer, draw close to God.

Our Blessed Mother spoke these words to St. Juan Diego to calm his fears about what he should say to his bishop and what to do about a sick uncle. Mary so arranged things that the uncle recovered, the bishop listened, and, ultimately, more than eight million people in Mexico converted. Mary, may we seek you and rest in your maternal care here at OLV.

Today's Gospel has a strong connection to a passage we heard proclaimed during Lent: the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman. At the conclusion of that passage, the woman runs back to town to tell everyone about what Jesus has told her. As the townspeople begin to make their way out to the well to see Jesus, he tells the Twelve to "lift up [their] eyes, and see the fields are white for harvest." What were they looking at? The white head coverings and clothing of the Samaritans.

It's a good reminder that often, the people we are supposed to speak the Word to are RIGHT in front of us.

Today, let's ask the Lord for the strength to proclaim his Word to our neighbors here within the boundaries of Our Lady of the Visitation Catholic Church.

Yesterday, we celebrated the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Today, we remember Mary's heart, that image of her soul, which was in perfect continuity with God's plan. Lord, give us her heart here at OLV!

OLV, it's the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus AND the World Day of Prayer for the Sanctification of Priests. But why celebrate both in one day? Watch our video to learn more.

This June, we’re taking a moment to remember the legacy of Blessed Pierre Toussaint.

Born into enslavement, he gained his freedom and spent his life opening schools, supporting orphanages, and raising money to buy the freedom of enslaved men, women, and children.

His life is a witness to how spiritual stewardship can transform a community. You can honor his generosity today by preparing a will that cares for your family, community, and faith.

In partnership with FreeWill, every member of our OLV community has free access to a simple, guided tool to create or update your estate plan.

Protect those you love, support Catholic schools or ministries, and build a lasting legacy: https://frwill.link/4dPtJqj

Jewish-American legend Maurice Sendak was born on this day in 1928. Though he lived in America, he was deeply affected by the deaths of numerous family members during the Holocaust. His scary, haunting images result from this connection.

He's most famous for "Where the Wild Things Are," one of the most popular children's books of all time

For more than 60 years, Fulton J. Sheen began each day with a Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament.

Prayer was not separate from his work.
It was the source of it.

Will you offer a holy hour for the missions this week?

Who is your best friend? Aristotle notes that there are three types of friends: those of utility, pleasure, and virtue. In the Christian understanding, truly virtuous friendship continues into heaven because the two people have spurred each other on to holiness. Learn more about virtuous friends here:
