Voice of the day

Whenever the church fails as a prophet it also fails as an evangelist.

Rene Padilla (1932-2021)

Prayer of the day

God of yesterday, today, and tomorrow, we call to mind your presence within us and around us. Inspire us with the Gospel message, that we may celebrate all that is life-giving, restore hope where it has been lost, and work to bring about change where it is needed.
